Fashion Time!

         This blog is for the fashion babies, and of course everyone else we dont discriminate at HHC. Okay so down to business. It seems like everyday these underground clothing lines are coming out the wood works on me. A few of these lines would be PlayCloths, a line created by hip hop duo/brothers The Clipse; Rebel8 Clothing, a guy named Joshy D. started this line with $500 and a dream; another line would be Insight Clothing, which was started in the 90's, by George Gorrow and Natalie Wood, but made it big in '05. The thing I like about underground/new lines such as these lines is the simple fact that if you purchase clothes by companies such as or like, it shows you have an "eye" and that you like to look good.

You cant just go in your average store and buy articles of clothing from these lines. Not to say that there aren't stores that may carry clothes of the sort, but they most likely will be boutiques or specialty clothing stores like Metro Park or something. Most of these lines have their own websites, but are also featured on fashion directory sites like www.karmaloop.com and www.shopsureel.com. I came across karmaloop about 4 years ago, and I haven't been able to forget it! They carry soo many brands it's crazy. I keep refering to brands comparable to the ones I listed above but have yet to mention the actual brands, so here they are, Hellz Bellz, 10Deep, Crooks & Castles, Married to the Mob, Obey, Soundgirl etc. Okay okay, I'll be completely honest, some (most) of these brands could get a bit pricey but look at it this way, you'll most likely be the only one in your surroundings that will have what you have, people will wanna know where you got it from, and you'll look like the fahion high roller of the circle lol. Seriously check these brands out though 'cause you know now-a-days every young person wants to be the first to know/have something. Here are the links to the first three line's websites. http://www.playcloths.com/ , http://www.shop.rebel8.com/ , and http://www.insight51.com/ . Well I'm off to check up on another fashion blog for you guys so I'll check ya later...
