<p>Contrary to my typical opinion, Emma Bell managed to create a fall line acceptable for all black and white lovers.  Praised by many blogger users, Bell has linked together a gothic, Harajuku-esque line to excite the fashion taste buds of the springtime black wearers all around.  Modesty is clearly out the window with hamburger pasties and floral tights, but I think this may be a good thing.  What I’m dying to find: a guy who is confident enough to wear canary yellow pants with a wolf painted on them.  Wearable art to the extreme, Bell’s pink and blue reflective-raver throw-up brings a good change to the typical black-white-gray of fall.</p>

<p>What started out as a hole-in-the-wall retail space has developed into a worldwide street wear icon. A BATHING APE began as a Harajuku trend and soon after sold out in Japan as it became a Gen-Y cult favorite. Nigo&#8217;s clothing and footwear brand is a favorite of the street wear obsessed, and the infamous gorilla logo has become globally recognized. A BATHING APE is coveted by many, as the limited quantities are sold only in Nigo&#8217;s boutiques in New York, Los Angeles, Hong Kong, London and Japan. Fifteen years after the first line of A BATHING APE t-shirts was introduced, a coffee table book featuring Nigo&#8217;s iconic designs on clothing, toys and shoes along with his work for stores, graphic design and food packaging. Fo all you street wear lovers out there, this is one you don&#8217;t want to miss.</p>

<p>Gwen Stefani&#8217;s harajuku inspired sound is making it&#8217;s way over to the states and there&#8217;s little the No Doubt songstress can do to control it. I&#8217;ve been secretly forming a sound crush over the bandmates at Polysics, who are producing bubble gummy/electric pop that can only be described as ear sugar. Listen and try not to feel the need to get up and rave.</p>
