NEWS FROM LA AVENUE !

Posted by RIF_LA / at 12:06 AM / / 0 comments

So I bet a lot of people have been wondering why we haven't been seeing "new arrivals" on napsize.com and laavenue.jp.  Well, I got an email from Watabe (Manager of La Avenue/Napsize) and  its because they are currently doing maintenance on the website, which stops then from updating.  

TOMORROW they will continue updating the site with " new arrivals". 

But in the meantime, ENJOY this picture of Jessica Michibata, the hottest japanese chick ever!  Also check out her BLOG, she's one of the few bloggers I look at on honeyee.

we're not Kids anymore.

So Jeff came by today on his day off, he was lugging around a huge box with old toys, games and shoes. We asked him where he got all that stuff and he told us that he went to the local GOODWILL and found all these goodies. Too bad we're not Kids anymore.

Jeff was a little embarrassed, peep the kicks he wore today.
