That's So New York - I'll put my hands up and admit that I have indeed been sat indoors for a relentless amount of time so far this Summer, in-fact, I'm not even sure if I could tell you the last time I ventured out to the town centre or for a meal with friends, or perhaps even simply to attend a small get together or garden party, either way, you've probably gathered that I'm quite the couch potato, yet when you're living in a small village in England, United Kingdom and have woken to the sound

Cheap Monday

That's So New YorkCheap Monday have always been a brand which I've admired; just the other day I decided to have a flick back through a couple of the collection archives and just ponder over the development of the brand throughout their now almost eleven year legacy; you may be thinking "Cheap Monday? they haven't been around for eleven years!" and yes, you would be kinda correct (emphasis on the KINDA,) yet after reading the Cheap Monday About page on their official website (which insists on

Coco & Breezy

That's So New YorkThis post has been a long time coming, as unisex eyewear label Coco & Breezy have been a label which I have personally admired since I first came across them a number of months ago. The label was founded by a pair of 20-year-old identical twin accessory designers from Minneapolis, Minnesota and is of huge popularity among the underground scene. The designers are currently based in Brooklyn, New York and have also recently expanded their label from what use to be eyewear alon

Feel Handmade

That's So New York - Ah yes, hours spend flicking through numerous pages of the internet followed by a whole load of frivelous emailing, recieving and replying have finally paid off as I have once again discovered a label which could be described only as adorable; not only because the designs which I have been presented with look like a mixture of elegance and child picture-book inspiration, yet also because the designers behind the label are both husband and wife; my parents have always told me

Melissa Diamantidi

That's So New YorkThis week I've been a little overwhelmed with designers as I have been emailing around in regards to my online-store which will launch this coming September. I previously began to have thoughts which pondered something along the lines of "Should I give up? I mean, I can't find the designers I want anywhere!" yet this week has been the push I needed as the designers began pouring in from various online-stores and press pieces which I've been flicking through left-right and ce

Back in the 60s!

That's So New YorkIn my previous post I did promise that i'd try to keep my next post (meaning this post) a little short, seeming that recently I've been typing away, not realizing that I've rambled on for three or four paragraphs and counting; I will keep to my word as this is a little more of a "I like these pieces; what do you think?" type post. You may be questioning "What on earth is he going to ramble on about this time?" and my answer? Topshop and their recent release of their Fall/Win

Back-Pack /ˈbakˌpak/

Verb: Travel or hike carrying one's belongings in a backpack: "a week's backpacking in the Pyrenees". 

Noun: A bag, often supported by a metal frame, with shoulder straps that allow it to be carried on someone's back.

Despite the fact that I now write on an almost daily basis (thanks to the blog) I still always make sure that I have a dictionary and thesaurus close by (in this case in a tab, seeming that the internet is all brainy and can do that.) Recently I’ve been admiring the good ol’ fashione

Iron&Pin

That's So New York- Once again, them hours spent sifting through the internet have paid off; consequently, I managed to hunt down an up-and-coming independent Men's label; after clicking over to their official website, instead of being presented with a rather stereotypical collection of graphic tee's and accessories, I was instead thrown into a limited collection of shorts, trousers and pocketed vests. The labels name? Iron&Pin; the designers name? Tom Hayden. I was initially rather shocked afte

"Take Me To Your Leader"

That's So New YorkIt seems that recently I have been doing nothing but sitting indoors, sifting through the internet until I come across a designer who I can sit and think"well, isn't that just dandy" in regards to; I mean, I'm not complaining seeming that I won't deny the fact that I'm not a huge fan of the Summer period and that as soon as it hits November-time and we begin getting them forecasts which read something along the lines of "tomorrow there may be snow around 11:00AM" I do applau

The making of Vivrant Magazine’s first issue was an amazing challenge. The idea and concept of the Vivrant brand and the Vivrant woman is still being developed, but I quickly realized that it was more than a project or a job. The magazine brings the reader a focused voice of fashion with an insider’s appeal. The rich fashion perspective allows our sophisticated reader to discover her own style and still enjoy the trends as they emerge in a timely fashion. We offer a sneak peek into the inner wor

How about Red?

That's So New York- Usually it's a little unusual to find a label which fits both the unique/alternative category, as well as the title of a mainstream and established designer, simply because it is not unusual for there to be a rather large amount of domino effect-type happenings when designing, meaning that a designer will create something which is in-fact originally 'unique' yet then other designers will go ahead and either replicate the same style of design, or create a piece similar yet wit

define: frumpy

That's So New York - I'm not usually one for getting giddy at the sight of a sweater; more appropriately I have to admit that I very rarely throw on a sweater as I've always thought of them as a garment which make you look little frumpy (okay, so they’re not exactly flattering, right?) or perhaps a piece which your gran would moan at you about and force on you during the winter months (or worse, she might even knit you one.) Recently my admiration towards the common ol' sweater has been peaking;

Dear Alex & Chloe, Again ...

That's So New York - I appreciate the fact that it must seem that I ramble on about Alex & Chloe at every given chance, and I won't deny that the majority of the time, that is indeed the case, yet when you receive the Alex & Chloe newsletter and are constantly being reminded that in two or three weeks there is going to be a new designer hitting the store, followed by a handful more the week after, the level of excitement doesn't exactly stay on the low. In the past week or so, there has been two

Christian Peau

That's So New YorkIn addition to my growing obsession with various vintage-type styles, such as the classic military look (which is for another post entirely) followed by my recent admiralty for Buffalo Sweaters, accompanied by one of my oldest favorable trends which leans towards pretty much anything pleated, I have recently began geek-ing out on my laptop for hours on end as I flick through and research pretty much anything related to Japanese fashion. Previously, I thought that Japanese fa

304050 SALE

That's So New Yor - I'm not usually one to flip out and go a little crazy at the sight of a sale rack (simply because recently they seem to be that of a frequent occurrence,) yet I thought that seeming Oak NYC have been a store which I've rambled on about more than frequently recently, their sale was one not to miss! - Oak NYC are currently hosting a sale where they have given customers 50% off of selected pieces of Clothing, Shoes and Accessories; with the big names including the likes of Vera

"photography, lets just roll with that"

That's So New YorkSurprisingly, for todays post I had a whole selection of topics and ideas which I could have rambled on about, yet then after sitting and dabbling through a number of editorials, music videos and the making of type videos, I came to the conclusion that todays post should most probably be a little more visual based in comparison to yesterdays post which included paragraph are paragraph of text as I rambled on about up-and-coming Australian Designer, Kelly Love.

'Song of the Rainbird' by Kelly Love

 

That's So New York - Just a couple of days ago I was once again doing what I do best; searching the internet along with various boutiques for some new up-and-coming talent which I could then voice my opinion over and ramble on about via a post, and you may have guessed, I'm now doing just that. I seem to be a little behind when it comes to new features on various Online-Stores which seem to be popping up all over the place; I assume that is why I only discovered the ASOS Marketplace around a we
