I saw these Parramour T-shirt on Fops and Dandies. I think they’re awesome! Ok, I may not be radical feminist as I once claimed to be but I appreciate a little vulgar humour. I don’t think they’re horribly fugly - I actually quite like the colours. I realised I haven’t shopped for Tees in awhile, yeah… Threadless trend has died down since the entire Singapore started wearing ‘em. It’s not cool when you walk down the streets and see someone else wearing your Tee.

Skinny Jeans - Hip & Going Strong
“The term “fashion forward” isn’t just a sassy form of alliteration; fashion is always looking forward (when it’s not looking back) which explains why even though Fall 2006 is still months away, we are currently obsessed with the “it” look of the season - the skinny jean. The look manages to be a winning combination of sexy yet casual all at once, but it’s popularity among the fashionably emaciated begs the question: are slim jeans only fitting for those who actually can fit into them? Here’s the skinny on who can wear skinny jeans, how to choose a pair that satisfies your style, and how long skinny jean will stay on the racks.
‘A trend isn’t in one season and out the next,” said Rau. ‘Look how long the boot-cut jean lasted. The skinny jean is new right now, but it will be the jean of choice for a couple of years.’Goodbye boot-cut, relaxed fit, and - gasp - flared leg. It’s time for jeans to get lean.” (source)
Project Runway Season 3: “Fashionably Early”
While we’re halfway through Project Runway Season 2, the Americans get their fashion fix of Season 3 four months earlier when the season kicks off in July. Fashion designer, Michael Kors and Elle fashion director, Nina Garcia will reprise their roles as resident judges. Tip: Vera Wang might be making a guest appearance on the show! So what are we gonna get…? Another wedding gown competition? Ooh la la! ( source)
The world needs more honest tees like these because in reality, we don’t live in the Hallmark la-la-land. Airside presents two of their statement tees that are brutally “honest” specially for applied individuals. “I’m not in love” comes in three different color combination for both sexes.
Quote of the day: Work Hard & be Nice to People. Have a wonderful day ahead, guys.
Love? or Hate? It doesn’t matter how you feel - wear this whimsical ambigram (note: a word that can be read by variety of angles) tee by Rachel Plefger, a French designer. This idea is brilliantly executed on a T-shirt is definitely a must-have for lovers or haters like ME. I’m dying to add this to my T-shirt collection. Available at MadeinDesign at EU$22 only.
Are you a Sk8ter Boi? Minnow carries unique designs from resident artists from Philedelphia and New York - SkateNerd just restock their Spring line-up. The tees are USD$20 each inclusive of USPS shipping charges (but I’m not sure if that applies to international shipping).
The biggest catch of the site is the Spring Grab Bag Sale! - Hand-printed nylon duffles for guys and cotton totes for ladies are packed with:
- NEW Minnow tee
- mystery backstock tee (from TQL, Stacks,
Crownfarmer, etc.)
- SkateNerd tee (nylon duffle only) & water
bottle (all bags)
- CD from the Yah Mos Def
- goodies from Castle Greyscale
- stickers, buttons, and other accessories
It’s at a low price of USD$30! What a steal! A must-have for cheapo guys and girls.
The new designs are “in” and once again, I spotted something I might want to order. Then again, I ordered seven tees last month - thanks to Threadless 3-day $10 sale (ah, you evil evil evil skinnycorp!). So I’m thinking, maybe I should go on a t-shirt shopping hiatus for awhile. Ah, the pain of not having all the money in the world. Once again, it would be nice to add the following tees to my collection:
This is the cutest ever! Playfully called Ambition Killed The Cat and look at that poor kitty electrocuted along the power lines. OUCH! You know, once I saw a monkey carcass stuck in the EXACT same position like this kitty back in Malaysia. Unfortunately, the monkey’s tail has dropped off but I’m damn sure it’s a monkey. Dead monkey, I suppose. Not related, never mind.
I’m smittened by the color, not the design. No offence but I think the design isn’t too bad. It’s not something that I would like go “ga-ga” over and lose sleep over. However, the color. Now that’s a different thing. This is called Stone Jungle. Very clever, stone jungle… concrete jungle. We get the meaning.
Also, other new Threadless tees to check out such as Landline’s Revenge and Talk To Me. On the reprint section, the lovelies at Threadless has decided to reprint The Outdoor Mix. I remember this tee was sold out on the day it was released. Talk about hardcore. I was one of them who requested for a reprint and now, I’m resisting my purchasing power. Save for the rainy day, as mummy always say.
:D Oh, and THANKS JO! It would be so much better if you're there with us! and mansita looks awesome too
