Black and Coal

Black and Coal company clothing and apparel are here to encourage you to feel better in whatever you decide to wear today. First, I want to pray for the families of the Connecticut incident. I feel America really needs to change, not only here in Chicago but in every neighborhood within every city in America. The question is how? How can we change when violence has been apart of this land called America since it had been discovered by foreigners searching for a new world? Personally, I want peace for our children here or city but, it seems as if the Chicago City Government does only what it can do for themselves and everytime I turn on the television another politician is in handcuffs that and people of all races going to jail. I ask you what should the people do now that we are losing lives in America? Please leave a comment spread your knowledge with us and we'll get back to you. Peace

Welcome to the Black and Coal blog and here you fine new and insightful tips on how to be in style and fashion. This winter stay in style with a bold red or black scarf accompany that with a matching hat. I wear urban, casual, and professional wear so I mix up many trends and attire. However, I feel that the way you dress reflects the persons, but when you don't have the type of clothing you want due to money issues I believe a happy person could make anything work. I believe that's why I want to provide affordable clothing  for all types of people, shapes, and sizes. Black and Coal Mission is to encourage and create clothing for men and women who want to look and feel a sense of encouragement by wearing our brand of clothing. Thank-you.

Hi. Everyone. This is Black and Coal where we are the best at keeping you fresh and on your toes in the Windy City. Well, to tell you the true nothing changes here in the city it's been that way for a while now. However, you can make a definite statement by the way you dress. I feel that colors are still in and they work, it's fall and fashion is still alive. In other news, the weather has been cooler and it's time to where those sweaters, thermals, and warm clothing. I've been pretty busy this month beside resting for school and running errands , but God has been on my mind and that's really where my focus has been. Movies: there has been good movies come out this week for example James Bond Sky fall, I'm looking forward to watching it soon at the theater. Barack Obama "four more years" I congratulate President Barack Obama on a well earned victory. Alright you beautiful people stay beautiful. God Bless.

Hi. Everyone, today is a blessed day indeed I have some things to inform you about pertaining to fashion and in the realm of news and sports. First, lets talk about the Chicago Bears one point victory over the Carolina Panthers. The Chicago Bears stayed in the fight when all hope was lost the Chicago Bears pulled through to win 22-23. Robbie Gould's 40 yard Field Goal attempt was amazing even after missing a field goal earlier in the game. In other news, The United States East Coast is preparing for Hurricane Sandy which is has claimed many lives during its duration. Citizens of the East Coast Borders rushed into supermarkets to grab whatever they can to survive Hurricane Sandy. I pray right now for the families of the victims and families who are preparing for Hurricane Sandy all the way down the Eastern Border of the United States they are covered by blood of Jesus. In fashion news, I encourage you all to find and wear what makes you feel happy; the reason being is because begin grateful is important part of looking and feeling good. When your grateful of the things you have it makes things you don't have not as important. To be honest, I don't have the latest fashion trend; I have a mix of jeans and shirts, but I am grateful of the things I have even if it's not consider in fashion by the world view of my fashion sense. I have to buy suits,ties, and dress shoes "I'm working on it." Well I have to go, but don't be discouraged, God is love and He is doing amazing wonders in the world so stay encouraged in faith,love,and peace. Proverbs 3:5 - Trust in the Lord with all you heart and Lean not to your own understanding.

What's up everyone just writing this to inform you that Black & Coal is still moving forward with various projects. See you guys in the city of Chicago. Stay Fashionable.

Monday Night :Debates/Sports Go! Bears

Dear Black and Coal Guest,

       What's up? Today is a beautiful Tuesday morning and last night Monday we had a extravaganza in sports and politics. The very last session of the Presidential debate was exciting, so tell me who will you vote for? The Presidential debate  was held on October 22, 2012 at Lynn University. The moderator was American Television journalist Bob Schrieffer.The Final Presidential debate was very important pertaining to issues within Syria, South Africa, Iran, and most importantly our thoughts and actions when it comes down to Israel. During the Presidential debate I felt that both of them Mitt Romney and President Barack Obama were very concerned over their alliance with Israel. I believe a question was asked by Bob Schrieffer (moderator) that "If  Israel  was on the phone ready to attack Iran what would the President do? Mitt Romney answered it was too hypothetical  I feel that Mitt Romney didn't want to answer that question because probably because he was cautious and  he felt the question was too far-fetched. On the other hand, Barack Obama didn't answer it I feel that those type of questions deserve a simple answer like " In order for America to have a positive influence on other nations we must prevent catastrophe and Israel attacking Iran or Iran attacking Israel is a catastrophe for the people who are trying to have descent life in those countries. In sports news, The Chicago Bears defeated the Detroit Lions 13 to 7. I feel that the Chicago Bears is now finally a well rounded team and capable of going all the way to the Superbowl 2013. Ouch! that was big hit from Ndamukong Suh to Jay Cutler, but our quarterback bounced back later in the game. Overall, the Bears got the job done and they should be ready this week when they face Cam Newton and the Panthers. In baseball news, The San Francisco Giants vanquished the St.Louis Cardinals 9-0. I feel that both teams worked really hard to get to this point, but the best team won. In result, We will see Wednesday night the Detroit Tigers at the San Francisco's AT&T Park and I have to tell you this is going to be good and I'm excited to see the outcome. Alright that's over and done with now on to fashion today's color is Purple. I know everybody wearing Navy/Orange trust me I know. Currently, I don't have any Navy/Orange I will  have to go to the store and get some, but trust me I will have some next week GO! Bears

Fashion Weekly

Dear Black and Coal Guest,
       Hi. How are you doing today?  I Know you are doing well. My name is Kirk D.Wilson Jr. Founder and C.E.O of Black and Coal Clothing Company and I would like to welcome you to our inspiring new business encouraging all to dress with style and flair. Today the weather is rainy and it's going to be cool outside so  stay warm and wrapped up in a jacket or coat. The color for today is red. I suggest that you should find a scarf or hat with red in it and wear this vibrant color in style and flair. I feel that when you wear red all will see vividly why you look so very good and beautiful. Red is very fashionable now and red carries a sense of character and personality. I have to be honesty this color just stands out and speaks volumes about one's character. My mother has a nice red knitted hat very fashionable and in season. I urged her to wear this color out with her very fashionable accessories, but all I get in response is "one day at a time son one day at a time", however I am going to shop for some hats, ties, jeans, and shirts with red in them. I just remembered I have a Rocawear shirt that has red in it and it stands out very much accompany my Rocawear Shirt with some Rocawear denim deep blue jeans I will look good expressing my character.  The shoes I will wear will be the Nike Hyper-Fuse Mid Night Fog. I feel today will be a good day I'm feeling good and I'm blessed I just seen lightening so break out your umbrellas and stay warm.

Good Morning Weather Saggin Jeans

   Good Morning y'all. God is good. The weather is 44 degrees so y'all should be wearing warm clothing. For me you know I'm resting I got a day off and I'm going to relax to some tunes. Pharcyde's 'running' playing in my stereo so today I'm going to vibe out with the Lord. I have to thank you guys for sticking with me throughout the hard times currently I am waiting for the school year to start and all I see on television is the Everest commercials my mom told me her point of view about Everest she told me that you are going to need money to attend Everest. My point of view is they have financial assistance and all I have been doing is resting for the upcoming school year and their commercial really make me think. Therefore, instead of watching television all day I stay active like keeping you guys updated on Black & Coal clothing tips and inspire you guys to wear what makes you happy and you know what? you can't go wrong what truly makes you happy. In music news, Jazzy Jeff is hot with Ayah singing tunes like Notorious and My Lifetime and please check out K Love radio 94.3. Hey you guys please leave some comments I need some clothing tips and feed back please leave positive messages. I read that True Religion is the premium jean in the industry today. Black & Coal will get there with enough faith, love, and care. Okay let's talk about the sagging jeans dilemma this issue is a lasting topic since sagging jeans started in prison or whatever it came from. My point of view is well I have two points of view. The first being that either two things are going to happen the pants are going to fall down to your ankles or two the wearer sagging jeans are going to try to catch a bus and fall dead on their face. On the other hand, I feel that it really reflects the wearer, however they expressing who they are through their clothing I wonder how God see it. To be real I think that's why we have Barbeque's and get together because we just can't explain the compounding issues we have in the city but a good old fashion recreational event always clears things up and Mayor Rahm Emanuel needs to see that in order to have a successful city he must know the people that run it.

In the middle of things

Hi. How are you guys doing? I know you all are blessed and highly favored. I am waiting for the school year to begin listening to K Love radio and I have to remind myself that God is good. This Past weekend I went to the Unashamed Tour and I have to say Propaganda was the best. The other artist shut the house down, but Propaganda was ill with his spoken word G.O.S.P.E.L . On the other hand, I am working on being unashamed and totally being committed to God. I'm still learning yet I still have a heart for fashion, arts, music, and going out to see the world. Therefore, I urge you all to come back today I have a lot of selections  to wear today. The weather is cool and the sun is out so I will where jeans/shirt something colorful probably LRG, but I will figure it out by time I leave out. I have other business to attend to so please stop by and drop some lines.

First Day of Fall

Hi. How are y'all doing? I know you are blessed. I write this post as a short introduction into the fall season and fashion. I want you all to stay warm, I repeat y'all need to stay warm out there today was windy and very cool so break out your light coats and hoodies. I also wanted to inform you about jeans,boots, and sneakers they are in and are in fashion so I have to go I'll see you when I see you peace.

Sky is the Limit

     Black and Coal is giving you what you want in fashion so please continue to come back and visit us on a daily basis. Keeping you fresh and on your toes from the depths of your souls out here in theses Chicago streets.I would like some feedback so please don't be shy give me some of your thoughts. My question is what's really going down in Chicago? I read in today's newspaper that there is more bloodshed in the streets, ,strikes, and let's talk about the battle of Aleppo(2012) going on in Syria. I also would like to talk about current events locally, in the U.S, and globally. The Sky is the Limit y'all. I read in today's newspaper that violence is still on the rise therefore y'all be prayerful out there. I know you all seen it in the News, Internet, and Newspaper our students are out of school because our teachers are on strike.The Chicago Teachers Union president Karen Lewis demands for Rahm Emanuel to give teachers the raise they deserve. I feel that the students can go back to school while the negotiators negotiate and finally give our teachers a much deserve raise. I also read that the teachers want the right guaranteeing them that they keep their job regardless of children performance. I read further that Chicago teachers do not want to be tested in order to teach a classroom of students; I also saw in the newspaper photos of protesting teachers holding picket signs stating " don't test me bro". This has been going on for a week now and everyday this week I've seen protesters walking down the street yelling out demands. I also wonder do Rahm Emanuel really know the true meaning of education; I also ask the Teachers the same question because despite of the pay rate students still need their education. I agree with Rahm Emanuel that the teachers should teach while the negotiators negotiate, but did we see this strike coming? On the other hand, students out of school means more trouble for inner city students living in urban areas the safety of our children is important, but to be real all types of people are outside at all types of hours. In other news, Aleppo is in war. The war is between the Free Syrian Army and the Syrian Military. The battle began July 19, 2012 and is referred as the mother of all battles. I read that there are Christians over there along with other religions caught in the middle of two forces going to war with one another. I also read that Syrian war planes bombed Aleppo and the results of the free Syrian Army and the Syrian Military on going war left soldiers and civilians dead. I feel that war will always strike the heart of all who are involved from the Presidents of the countries in war to the civilians,but I see things differently or I try to understand their point of view their fighting for what they believe and some of them hate and despise America. I am only 24 years old and I can see that most of all African Americans are in jail it gets worse because Aids/HIV is out here. I want my clothing or whatever I do to prosper and I want to know where i come from. I also want to inform you that Swaziland just had a traditional event its called the umhlanga (ceremony)Umhlanga, or Reed Dance ceremony, is an annual Swazi and Zulu tradition held in August or September.Tens of thousands of unmarried and childless Swazi/Zulu girls and women travel from their villages to participate in the eight-day event. This is only a portion of the information I have to give yo i will see you guys tommorow.

Employment Searching

Dear, Black and Coal Guest
       How are you? I'm blessed. I am currently searching for a job. I haven't tried everywhere yet, but don't worry I will be looking into many job openings today. I wanted to talk to you guys about new seasonal outfits and looks, apparel, and accessories. Fall, which is my favorite season by the way, is a great season to wear your sweaters, coats, hoodies, wool caps, and many more. Black & Coal is offering fashion tips throughout the Fall and approaching Winter; also I will give you updates on what I will be wearing during this season and my reactions, thoughts, and feelings. I've seen a lot of fashionable people out there in Chicago West side; when I was on the Madison bus headed to my church Rivers of Living Waters International located on the corner of Madison and Sacramento, it was when I sat on the back of the bus I saw a beautiful young women wearing green from head to toe. Green means provided by onlyme (Yahoo Answers) explains that green means life, nature, fertility, and well being. The Women in green had on all green and white Palladium Boots with a Green Shirt, but what stood out was her piercing below her lip; I guess that what defines her beauty almost to say to everyone this is who she is. I decided to wear all black you know? soak up some of theses sun rays and to accompany that I wore a black fisherman's hat. The designer I had on was  Rocawear; the shoes were the Air Nike Hyper Fuse Mid Night Fog color; I feel I was making a statement wearing all black, but I could accessorize by buying a chain preferably gold,black, or anything representing Christ. Well I have to go more updates will be coming soon so please stop by anytime leave a comment and show some love. Thank-You

Happy Labor Day

Dear Black&Coal Guest,
       How are you? Welcome to Black & Coal The Clothing Company where you will find the freshest urban wear, casual wear, and professional wear on the web. Today is Labor Day so I know y'all will be dressed to impress at family events , recreational events, and for some people; they will be partying at some of Chicago's finest clubs. My day couldn't be better because I bought my first pair of  original Palladium Depuis 1947. I am reading the box now and I typed the word Palladium into Wikipedia; Palladium can be found in the realm of chemistry. 

      I decided to pay the website a visit and I learned that the creators moved from France to California and have been making boots since 1947. The color I selected was Navy Blue and White; they are nice and my Navy Blue and White Palladium will look good on my feet for the rest of the summer and the remainder of the fall. Me, my cousin, and mother visited Madison/Pulaski where we visited the new opening of Villa the clothing store. The Villa had some good urban wear selections such as LRG, Parish, Akoo, DGK, TrukFit and they had a good selections of shoes such as Nike's, Adidas, Jordan's, and All Stars. I know the Villa is a great store, however they could increase their selections. The Villa is a new Fashion store and can be found throughout the city of Chicago and I appreciate the business in our neighborhood because this gives us an alternative to choose and select clothing at a reasonable price. I didn't get the chance to negotiate a price or compare deals, but the store looked nice; I could see the vision as if i was a celebrity on the runway. I have to be serious when I say this because its getting harder and harder to even be fresh out here in Chicago, due to the true fact that people get  robbed for their money, clothes, and belongings. Black & Coal is a clothing line that when you wear our clothing you know that we make our clothing to inspire you to dress professionally in urban wear, casual wear, or professional wear.

Fall is close new Fashion Tips by Black & Coal

Hi. This is Kirk D. Wilson Jr. giving you a heads up on what is in fashion this season. Urban wear, it is still warm in the city, yet it gets cool at night. I've seen people wearing LRG jackets out there, a couple of people wearing shorts, but whatever you decide to wear make sure you have a umbrella nearby because it might rain. Let's be real, and keep things one hundred; colors are still in and draw many to notice you and certain colors bring out your skin tone. I remember recently I wore a LRG shirt and outfit,  the shirt was the color of a light shade of turquoise, the shorts were white , the flip flops were black, the fisherman's hat was black. I was fresh I must admit, I got a lot of complements and people were amazed by the color scheme i chosen. My point is this, if you have any colors to wear now is the time to wear them and show them off. Summer is still here and a lot of people still visit the lake front, so let's get out there and express ourselves through our fashion sense. Casual wear, I've seen a lot of good looking people dress casual and some people left me asking how do they do it. I mean lets be real, they really took the time to dress professionally  probably meaning the cost of their clothing was expensive, however you can dress casual on a cheaper budget by shopping at theses stores. K&G Fashion is cool they have alot of selections at a cheap price, but beware of what you actually buy there because some clothing you buy may cost more than others. My point is this, I bought a shirt at K&G Fashion for 25 dollars when it should have cost 10 dollars.I learnt my lesson but take this tip with you; you can always find things cheaper somewhere else. I'm not trying to prevent you from buying there, on the contrary, I just want you to find the best clothing at a reasonable price. My second point is this, make sure your clothes fit you before you buy it; you don't want to get home and find out you have to take it back. My third and final and most important point is this, you can negotiate with the salesman for a better price instead of paying full retail value. Negotiating a better deal works with retailers work and saves you money. North Riverside Mall is a descent place to shop, Macy can get expensive but carries designer clothing, but there are many more  locations out there I have yet to visit so be on the lookout. Business/Professional wear is very important for those who work, attend church, or some who are on important business occasions. I would have to say a more regal look is in, also colors work very well. Please, follow us or stop by anytime. Black and Coal will offer a variety of clothing in business, urban, and casual wear. My current project consist of making shirts with family pictures on them. The one I have in mind is a picture we took at Wisconsin Dells, the portrait has a Western feel to it; My mom is wearing an old western dress and I'm wearing cowboy suit holding a shotgun. I'm going to pick up some Akoo Jeans dark blue jean denim with brown stitching and designs. I have a  choice for the shoes; I can either rock Air force ones high tops ,Puma high tops, Adidas high tops, or PF Flyer's its my choice.

Thank-You. God Bless.
