A Package from Eio Clothing, White T-shirt of Butterflies

0 comments

About a month ago, a package arrived to my mailbox and it was happened the package was sent from far UK. Once I opened the package, I knew that it was sent by Eio (Excess is OK) Clothing, a UK streetwear brand.

I'm not very sure what this T-shirt is called as it's not on the catalog but I do like this slim-fit tee featuring a family of butterflies. The white tee shirt made of garment that feel a lot better than American Apparel 2001 jersey which used a lot by many indie clothing labels; most probably, a garment that was designed exclusively for Eio. Other than its comfort feel, I enjoy like this tee for having fabric to cut every detail and custom sew.

With a feel-good T-shirts as a starting point, there are much to explore from Eio clothing; especially if you're into their style: which is much inspired by punk and electro music as much as raw attitude, sex appeal, the love of music, and a party lifestyle. Maybe you should't just believe in what I say, your better check them out yourself.

Les Ardentes Official T-shirt is Looking Good, from Collaboration with Sehubabe

0 comments

Is anyone going to Les Ardentes this year? I've never been there --maybe next time when someone pay my ticket ;) -- but from information I gathered, the festival has become one of the most successful major events of the summer in Belgium and in the Euregio (Liege, Limburg, Aachen, Maastricht). Last year, no less than 56,000 festival-goers gathered at the Parc Astrid et Halles des Foires de Coronmeuse in the heart of Wallonia. This year, the fourth edition of Ardentes will be held on 9, 10, 11 and 12 July 2009, at the same place, in Liège, Belgium.

Prior to the event, Les Ardentes official T-shirt of the 2009 edition is released (15 euros) in collaboration with Sehubabe in a very limited run of only 200 pieces. Featuring nice graphic artwork on the front and list of performers on the back -- make this T-shirt a good looking official merchandise. Wearing this to the festival, it looks like you're going to be a few people stand out people at the event. Grab this tee shirt before it's sold out, available in both guys and girls size.

*did I tell you that you will take it with "free shipping" when you order of 3 T-shirts of more? Because you're not going to the event alone!

Happy Birthday, America! Here's a Little Gift from 80's Purple

0 comments

Starting from yesterday -- niche fashion forward online retailer, 80's Purple, is running the RedWhite & Purple sale event. The 5-day sale, which is 80's Purple largest sale to date as they claim, offers up to 30% off (for today) and 25% off (for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow) our total purchases with coupon code: fireworks

80's Purple holds a large selection of men’s and women’s clothing and accessories. It a house of a unique selection of over 180 designer brands unrivaled amongst other online shops. To be honest, 80's Purple has been my reference for years when I look for new clothing brands or new collection by established brands -- when I'm too lazy to search on Google or browse through other fashion blogs. Its product catalog ranges from exclusive urban streetwear to contemporary fashion attire such as (my favorites!) Obey, GRN Apple tree, Thank Theory, Dissizit, Modern Amusement, Hellz Bellz, Insight, etc.

So, celebrate America's birthday with little "huge-discount" gift from 80's Purple!

Shirtcity's Top Selling T-shirts: Moonwalker and King of Pop

0 comments

The sudden death of Michael Jackson also came as a huge surprise to everyone, not exception to clothing merchants like Shirtcity. Given that the news was spread on last Friday -- the day which Shirtcity regularly releases Shirt Of The Week -- they chose Michael Jackson design in his rememberance. Because, like us, they can't ignore the #1 news topic these weeks.

Over last weekends MJ inspired T-shirts such as Moonwalker and King Of Pop instantly made it to the Top 10 of Shirtcity most wanted tees. Meanwhile, at the "backstage", there were some complaints of some people about T-shirt sellers and designers exploiting the grief over one of the greatest entertainers purely for profit.

A friend of mine from Shirtcity, Robert, would like to dissent here. He said:
"selling shirts is our business, and you can't blame us for that, can you. Our customers want to wear good Michael Jackson tee shirts and we are happy to give them good Michael Jackson tee shirts. Simple as that. I don't think this means we are disrespectful here. We made no bad jokes (or kept them to us), most of us were affected by losing their childhood pop star, his music was played in our office... Yes, like everywhere it's Jacko days for us."

Whether you agree or not, as I said last week, we will see more and more (unofficial) Michael Jackson tribute T-shirts. Meanwhile, check out more Michael Jackson inspired T-shirts sold over Shirtcity online shop.

The V-gan, Alternative Apparel's Tee with Organic Taste

0 comments

The goodness of simplicity that's brought by blank T-shirts are for every one, for all seasons. But nowadays, basic tee shirts are more than just basic T-shirt with no other "story" attached to it -- many fashion brands are for pushing additional features while not forgetting little details that bring their tees collection to the next level.

Now take a look at a Alternative Apparel's the V-gan T-shirts. It's a regular-fit tee with V-neck dimensions that stay the same across size scale; made of 100% organic cotton that features low-impact fabric dyed, enzyme fabric washed for maximum softness. And having unisex shape, it means that this cozy tee is perfectly suitable for both men and women.

With all that features, I hope you can't find reason why you shouldn't grab this tee for $28 from 80's Purple (if black is not your color; then you can try Alternative Apparel online store where you can find more color options )

Dyslexics are teople poo (and They Wear T-shirts)

0 comments
There's no secret over here, I'm addicted to spelling checker. My addiction gets worse everyday as I write and blog in daily basis (while my time to do so is getting shorter). I've figured out it will take 10-15 minutes slower to finish my work without spell checkers built-in on my blogging software.

The faster I type -- the more red-underlines I get, remind me how bad English is. Does it mean I suffer dyslexia? Well, I don't know because everything seems so natural. I think I'm okay although I can be worry sometime. Or maybe I just have to be proud of it.

If you're heavy user of spelling checker, you have to question yourself. Turn off that automatic spelling checker and think about some difficult words -- type it down, and check if your English is better than the 6th graders.

Do you feel good about the result? Nope? don't cry. You have just joined millions of people who don't know they suffer disleck... Oops, I mean dyslexia. No shame about it. Feel free to tell others that Dyslexics are teople poo with this T-shirt ($18.95 $10.00*) and chance is they will either laugh at you or themselves. Oh, by the way, not only guys -- some girls are Dyslexics too.

*discount price only until Friday this weekend

The Kid and the Bird Pants, RVCA New Vintage T-shirt

0 comments

I will never claimed to be a person who know the best way to mimic the songbirds. I'm not even sure that I know a genius way to do it. But it probably isn't by wearing a pair of specially created bird pants. But that doesn't mean I can't make myself laugh when I remember seeing a kid wearing a song bird and singing a song about the bird... it's just hilarious.

Bird Pants, don't ask me how RVCA came out with this T-shirt but it's quite an artsy, vintage-looking apparel -- something that get people's attention, probably before they ask, "where did you saw this song bird dude?". That's when you lead the conversation. 100% cotton, machine washable and imported... get this tee for $24.00 on official RVCA online store.

*song bird costume is sold separately, most probably elsewhere
