In talking with Kreemo and looking at companies such as Dee and Ricky, it has inspired us to start designing some buttons. A button is a nice, subtle piece that compliments a piece such as a hat, jacket or bag. Similar to a patch, it can make something so plain, more unique and personal. Soon enough, BlahZEblah buttons will be in the works. Stay tuned for updates.
Dee and Ricky, twin brothers out of New York, New York have been in the fashion scene for a couple years now. Each year they've been expanding and introducing new creative ideas to the fashion and accessory game.
They started out with such a simple but tough idea of taking legos and making different shaped pins/buttons. They're idea, brewed up in there home in New York, reached popularity with celebrities such as Kanye West and fashion designers like Marc Jacob. Now that they have been successful with that, they went back to the drawing board and cooked up a new idea for another accessory. This time, they are making bags out of vintage starter team jackets.
The video is inspiring to be different, makes you want to brainstorm: What can we do to be bring something slightly unique to the game?
Herds of the Fathers make leather accessories..
Dee and Ricky make lego accessories and bags...
In the words of Nas: "No idea is original under the sun, its never what you do but how its done" and with that said and looking at fashion today, it really inspires me to fall into brainstorm mode and think, what can BlahZeBlah bring to the table to turn some heads.... In due time, we will see
First and foremost MerryChristmas to all those who consistantly check our blog.
As you already know from a previous posted video, the Cool Kids linked up with Don Cannon again to release a FrEP for christmas. The EP is nice so make sure you download this one.
Lately over this summer, certain brands have started to fall off to me. Brands such as Crooks and Castle, The Hundreds in a way, the loud Stussy Tee Shirts, a few others, and 10 deep. Now 10 deep was always one along with Stussy, where I tend to be on the fence about there clothing in general. With some of the items I saw for there Fall-Winter 09 collection, I can say i like it. I really like there varsity jackets and crews they have lined up for release.
Its been a long time coming for A Bathing Ape. They've been one of those exclusive Japanese brands that everyone knows, but you won't find in your local mall or local boutique. For years they've only had a members only online store, that change a few months ago when they opened there Japanese online store. Now they've official launched there US STORE! Finally, in English, in US dollar prices. Still not the same stuff you'd find at the SOHO Store in Manhattan or stores over seas, but still nice exclusive, BAPE pieces.
In addition to the online store, they've put out a few things have caught my eye lately, collabs, tees, watches, etc...
Not as nice as the Bape G Shocks that were released but I'd cop this for a lil summer watch...I dont know but one thing I do know is my check card probably will be visiting that Bape Store in the near future
The Hundreds are already to move on to their Spring 09 collection that is to drop very soon. Look out for some new piece out there camp. via. The Hundreds.com
