We are so in love with the Fashionistas right now. They just spotted our “Douche Bag” tote on Cafe Press and decided to show us some real love. I can here the registers at Cafe Press ringing now!!! Send us some money!!!

The full review below…

“It’s been a while since the last time we came across a spoof of the Anya Hindmarch “I’m Not a Plastic Bag” tote, but we think this one really beats them all.

Despite the bag’s popularity, and the good things we know came from it, we couldn’t help but burst out into laughter when we came across Fashion Indie’s “I’m Not a Douche Bag” tote on Cafe Press.

So seventh grade, and yet, so on point - we’d love to swing this around the Whole Foods salad aisle while enunciating our plans to offset the bag’s carbon footprint using only macrobiotic beets.”

So this is my own little shameless self promotion. My bows and head pieces that will soon be in Henri Bendel’s with hopefully alongside Leighton Meister aka Blair the queen bitch of the bunch. For now take notice of my dazzling sparkle bow that is two toned died in violet and the ribbon binded headband with an over sized silver bow.

If you are interested in purchasing them (of course you are) visit www.starsandinfinitedarkness.com.

Julie’s purple number will soon be all the rave with uptown and downtown elites.

Check back for more of my stuff on Etsy…

Henri Bendel’s will feature Angel Lust headpieces which were designed by fellow indie, Kristen May Anastasia.  Kristen has been building a cult-like following amongst downtown and uptown girls for her hyper-styled headgear, which was recently featured on Gossip Girls (I know, we said we wouldn’t talk about them again, but come on, one of our friends got her goods on the show and it’s worth a mention).

You can pick up one of these exclusive head pieces at Henri Bendels thru Wednesday so stop by. If you really love Gossip Girls (which I’m sure you all do), then head there on Tuesday cause one of the stars of the show will be available to sign autographs with Kristen.

If you can’t stop by Bendel’s, you can pick up Angel Lust at Shop and Patricia Fields.

Rock and Ska

Britpop and Indie 

Ben Sherman has just put out a collection of dresses from London-based label PPQ.  The dresses cover multiple time periods, each with their own style inspiration and name. According to Racked.com, there is a black-and-white 60’s Mod frock, a paisley-print 70’s Rock number, a gray-and-black 80’s Ska outfit, a stripey 90’s Britpop look and a boho 00’s INDIE design. That’s right indies we are in the generation of INDIE. (Aren’t you special for reading fashion indie)

Who’s PPQ: Think British Heatherette with Peaches Geldoff taking the place of Paris Hilton on the runway.

The dresses are going for $300 a piece, but their limited nature makes them worth the cash drop. Head to Ben Sherman’s 96 Spring Street location to get the indielicious dresses.
