Blind Addiktion

I've been wanting to speak on Blind Addiktion for about a year now but I was sworn to secrecy. Now that the wait is finally almost over, I can let the ladies know about a must have addition to your denim collection!!  I've watched this line grow from a simple idea into a fantastic final product and I guarantee you will be just as impressed as I was and still am.

The 1st season will consist of 2 styles: A Super Skinny fit or pencil leg ( slim fit mid-rise tapered) and a regular skinny jean.  The thing that makes these jeans stand out more than any other brand is the innovative back pockets because they curve to show off your natural curves in the best way possible!!

Nudie Jeans Selvage Lab

You all should know that Nudies are my favorite jeans. Over the years Nudie have promoted the great authentic vintage wear of their denim over time, even published instructions on how best to achieve this worn look, they have now announced the launch of their new Selvedge Lab, providing one off pre-worn expressions of their existing good cuts and high quality denim, they won’t be as cheap as their existing line, nor will they be as readily available but hey, they will save you about 6 months of work

Wouldnt it be great to be Naked & Famous

Well here's your chance. Based in Montreal, Canada, Naked & Famous Denim prides themselves on providing “striped-down luxury goods for reasonable prices”. I like the name because it is sort of makes fun of overpriced "Hollywood" and "Glamour" brands as well as our celebrity obsessed society. They have found some pretty creative ways to make their no frills label quite unique. Instead of washes rips or embroidery, they've added 30% silk to their Japanese raw denim for a more comfortable feel.

"Naked &Famous Denim is doing something that no other luxury brand has ever done before! We are the first luxury brand to actually be concerned with providing value to our consumers. Value is usually a taboo word in the luxury segment, most think Walmart when they hear the word. But we don’t care, we are fed up with over-priced undervalued brands, and are here to unmask the bullshit of the “premium denim” industry. We do this by creating a far superior product using expensive and rare Japanese fabrics, but we keep everything raw and simple so we can sell our jeans at reasonable prices. Every other brand competes based on design, trends, or who has more celebrities wearing their products. N&F is the first and only “Luxury Value” brand."-Brandon Svarc(Founder & Designer of Naked & Famous Denim)

You can find Naked & Famous at places like Barneys.

Hellz Bellz Bullet Proof Sisters Collection

Hellz Bellz is the # 1 line for women's streetwear in my opinion!! They know how to give an edge to a classic look!!  Check out the "Bullet Proof Sisters” collection, a tribute to the sexploitation flicks of the 1960’s -70’s. There is a sick denim concept inside that I wouldn't mind a men's line doing! See what the Hellz going on, inside!!

Levi's x Damien Hirst Fall 2008 Collection

The Levi’s® X Damien Hirst collection revolves around three key themes of Damien Hirst’s body of work – the skull, spots and tropical butterfly. Levi’s® 501® jeans in black and over-dye blue are teamed with white, black and deep purple rock-inspired T-shirts emblazoned with iconic Hirst imagery – tropical butterflies, dots and skulls. These are just 2 of my favorite tees from the collection.

The Fashionista & fashionisto's Ebay!!

Perhaps you've visited the folks over at DenimBlog and HonestForum for some fashion advice or the scoop on the latest trends.

There is another really cool part of their website called HonestMall. You know how if you go into eBay and search for designer clothes, you end up with a gazillion results loaded with knock-offs and scams? Well, on HonestMall, it's a much smaller scale, and they've taken precautions to make sure that all of the listings are authentic.

The mall charges a one time $10 entry fee to keep the scammers out, and there are brand managers that review the posted items to make sure they're real. They dig through to make sure that the seller is a real person, that they have a high feedback rating, where the item came from, and they even comb over high-res photos to confirm stitching and tag details. No more squinting at your monitor to figure out if those SB's or Rock & Republic's are fake! Some sample brands you might find on there include Diesel Jeans and Sevens as well as Louis Vuitton, Dolce and Gabbana, Manolo Blahnik, and more.

They are also working on integration with myspace and facebook and are building a mini version to work on your phones and blackberries. The best part? They've started a charity too and a portion of all their revenue goes to the poor.

PrPs is showing the ladies love

PrPs became famous for their soft and distressed mens denim. The detail of their jeans is so sick!! They are coming out with a woman's line for fall 08!! The founder, Donwan Harrell describes the line as "casual functional luxury"

Let's Talk Denim

Anybody that knows me, know's I been on my Nudie shit for a long time now!! I've always been the type to buy what I like not what TV deems as "HOT"!! They are so comfortable and the washes are nice. You got to get the right cut though cause there are some that looks like a girl should wear them so don't just grab and buy lmao. For all of you that wait until you hear it in a song or see it on TV to get with something here's a little info on Nudie. Although I have been seeing Bow Wow rocking the Nudies so that should give you some inspiration!! lol Step you denim game up!!

Nudie Jeans are made with organic denim made of cotton. Nudie chose the ecological and mindful route because they are aware that conventional cotton accounts for 25% of all insecticides worldwide. They make a difference for the environment by using organic denim producers with stringent ecological processes for the spinning, dyeing and finishing of the yarn including potato starch and pre-reduced indigo.
