Ghosts of Summer

A new love tee from Threadless this week. Ghost was designed by “droopy, DRP”. Looking at this artist’s other designs it’s obvious he/she has a penchant for skulls. For me this one is a representation of our endless struggle for beauty — it’s eating us alive. In more ways than one. I think the...

Spring into Ashley Stewart

Ashley Stewart recently added Crystal Renn as one of their clothing models. This is sure to open up the market for them but I’m glad they didn’t drop their regular full-figured models all together. That being said I was surprised to find such a small inventory. But a smaller inventory means I can find...
