Men In Skirts

Fashion is constantly evolving and revolving. Music is arguably the most influential source of fashion trends amongst youth. This is because musicians are viewed as icons by their fan base. Hip Hop artists Diddy and Kid Cudi have wore Kilts before and now Kanye West. Of the trhree Kanye is the most influential and flamboyent fashion wise.This makes one wonder how influential Kanye can get.

When Kanye West blew up as a rapper around 2005, his dress code instantly stood out. Kanye was one off the first hip hop artist to wear straight and slim fit jeans. What seemed to be taboo at the time soon became a trend globally. The slim fit look soon took over the traditional baggy hip hop look. So what does Kanye West have in store for hip hop fashion.

Kanye was spotted rocking a leather kilt while performing for the N*ggaz In Paris music video with Jay-Z. Although one may view this as one of Kanye's outrageous moments, it might be a matter of time before Kilts are the hottest thing in urban fashion.

The Hangover Cure

Everyone has a theory or recommendation on the best way to cure a hangover. It does however appear that each person has a unique method that works for them. The question that remains is whether there is a standard cure for a hangover with a scientific backing.


I am always fighting with my friends on whether to drink whiskey or vodka. They argue that its only because I prefer vodka that i say it causes less or no hangover. It is however a true that clear liquors such as vodka, gin, rum and white wine have less congeners  that cause hangovers compared to dark liquors like whiskey, brandy and red wine. 


Hangovers are mainly caused by dehydration in the body. The headaches and fatigue are a result of the body organs absorbing fluid in the body.Therefore remedies like drinking more the next day or eating raw eggs with hot sauce may seem to work but are not full proof. 


Therefore the best way to treat a hangover is to ensure the body is hydrated before and after drinking. You should then eat and have a glass of water before drinking, try drink water in between drinks and before going to bed. Eating in the morning and having vitamins via fruits and juices will speed up the recovery process from a hangover.
