Regeneration: On The Rise!

Today, retro clothing lines are emerging. They have become some sort of epidemic! Everywhere you go, there is a fairly new clothing line, who's theme revolves around the whole 80's era. Don't get me wrong, I'm not bashing them, I'm actually diggin' them!!! Which is the reason I'm blogging about it. These clothing lines (and some others) embody the Tastes, Attitudes, & Lifestyles of the culturally expressive minds in our society! These clothes make dressing up fun and not monotonous. A few that have caught my eye recently were: AIIB, Hiqee, A.L.I.E.N and Lemar & Dauley. I'll give you guys the breakdown on these lastest fads, incase you aren't familiar with them. Let me know what you think!

AIIB (Aspire 2 Be) - In today's society, we express who we are through different channels....right? Our personalities and attitudes often tell who we aspire to be. Browsing through MySpace one day, I fell upon this page and the default pic (to left) totally caught my eye. For these girls, fashion is a huge part of who they ASPIRE II BE! The babies in their collection, as they say, are babies with big dreams, who ASPIRE II BE successful, II BE stylish & fly, and II BE noticed for their individuality..these shirts are for girls, by girls. Check out some of their latest tees.


HiQee - Another one of those cute female t-shirt lines (& hoodies). Funk + Sport = HiQee. Check out their site, http://www.hiqee.com/, for more about the HiQee girls. Some samples of their tshirts below. I'm lovin' the black & whites, the pinks, the blues, and the purples! I might as well say I love 'em all!

Lemar & Dauley -
These L&D Boys are so fly...I love their stuff! I recently went to their 4.5 Anniversary party sponsored by Vibe & had a blast (should've blogged about that)! Thanks Brian!!!

Below is a pic of Chris Brown rocking some L&D...geeeeeeez......he is such a handsome young man :-P



A.L.I.E.N - A Legion In Every Nation. Based in NYC, A.L.I.E.N consists of a group of designers, artists, promoters, stylists & fashionistas aka The Galaxy Riders. And that's exactly what they are....so out of this world! To get a better understanding of the The Alien Crew, check out a 7 minute video on Current TV - http://www.current.tv/pods/scene/PD06941 (I tried to upload & kept getting errors with this one - sorry people!).

Ok, that's it on clothing, for now. I'm sure I'll be back, as there is always something new & funky coming out! Leave your thoughts and comments, and stay tuned for next week's poll!
