Wednesday was day 1 of Agenda in Long Beach. Jason (Injured Goods) and I decided to stop by to look at a few lines, say hello to friends, and creepily gawk at the pretty women of the retail industry.

Jason and our buddy, Geoff (on the right). He runs things over at 722 Figueroa, but back in the day he ran things over at WESC on Robertson before it totally sucked. I guess Geoff is just good at running things.

My good friend and retail prodigy, Chris Josol. Chris owns one of contemporary fashion’s most notable showrooms, 722 Figueroa. Chris’ genuine youthfulness and generosity is refreshing in an industry in which people’s personal agendas (no pun intended) overpower their moral codes.

I was actually kidding when I said we were creepily gawking at the pretty women of retail, but when I got my camera back from Jason I saw that he had done just that…
