You Know His Steez...

This kid has a knack for fashion. I can't say he gets it from me or Jus cause honestly, I think we can both use some help in this department.  Maybe he picks up steezy influence from what he observes of his fashionable uncles. Sometimes I give him whatever clean clothes to put on and he tells me, "that doesn't look cool mommy." He prefers jeans over sweats--even though I try to convince him to wear sweats cause they're comfy. Anyway, it's great that he has his own sense of style & creativity when it comes to clothes. 
On http://minihipster.com/, Miles was featured as one of the steezy kids over the summer.
This week, his Uncle Mega asked him to model the Black Scale Brats line. It's dope what his Uncle Mega & Uncle Alfred have created with their clothing company. When we use to live in the P-Side, his Uncle Mega told me about his dream career, owning his own line, and plans towards building his company, getting his line across the globe, moving to L.A. and ultimately Paris. At the time he was still working for HUF, learning the business. Everything he told me pretty much has manifested and is still unfolding, being testament to the goals he set for himself and the hard work that they both put in. It's dope witnessing your folks succeed in creating their own niche in life--so I just feel real proud of these guys. 
  I missed the photo shoot but heard from Justin that Miles was a pro. Miles' Uncle Ruben was his stylist for the shoot! The next day, I asked him how the shoot went. "It was so much fun mom. They have a real black knight helmet." Here are some behind the scenes photos by Justin...
The photographer asked Miles to "Pretend like you're stitting in time-out." Justin told me Miles looked at him first to see if it was OK and only pretend.
Uncle Roob stylin' him.
Here's the Black Scale Brats Kids line available at Black Scale:
