Fuzz Pop: The Dum Dum Girls In Style

Nicole Vardo — Tue, 08 Nov 2011 19:34:51 +0000

While on my random tune-ventures for my craving of pop-punk music and black lace thigh highs, I’ve recently come across a band to watch, The Dum Dum Girls. Known for both being bizarrely stylish and sweet sounding. So if your style is inspired for being a little on the edge, here’s the scoop of this all girl band that started off back in 2008.

Coast: California

The Women: Dee-Dee (vocals, guitar) Jules (guitar, vocals) Bambi (bass, vocals) Sandy (drums, vocals)

Dum Dum Style-ism: Some where along the lines of a modern day 60′s “It” girl meets a twisted Blair Waldorf gone rogue, and don’t forget to add a hint of an all black wardrobe. From their golden child collection of must-have tights, matched with the combination of lace, leather, collars, and wit, I bet you can’t help but love their almost wild child status. Not to mention, their songs top it all.

Alumbs: I Will Be LP, HoZac (First Pressing), Sub Pop, 2010/ Only in Dreams LP, Sub Pop, 2011

Sound like: The Vivian Girls

Genre: Indie Pop

A Video Taste: The Dum Dum Girls- Bhang, Bhang, I’m A Burnout

Wearing Your Influences: Anja Rubik For Kurt Geiger’s Fall 2011 Campaign

Nicole Vardo — Tue, 20 Sep 2011 06:13:10 +0000

Anja Rubik being the dominate force that she is, is definitely the reason why she’s the face of Kurt Geiger’s Fall 2011 campaign. She’s such an inspiration rocking all these important accessories that make her mundane but secretly chic outfits pop! Nothing says “I’m busy being amazing” like these red ankle wrap wedges, and a teal clutch for fall festivities.

PLAYLIST: Throw Me The Statue

Jessica Li — Thu, 18 Feb 2010 16:52:21 +0000

This Seattle Band has become my new musical obsession. Their 2009 album Creaturesque is the perfect sound for a sunny afternoon – my favorite track is Waving at the Shore, check out the music video here:

PLAYLIST: Yeasayer, “O.N.E”

Ann Marie Trietley, Factory Girl — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 15:47:48 +0000

This indie band made up of three guys from Brooklyn describes their sound as “Enya with bounce” on Myspace and will make you dance, for sure.

The song “O.N.E,” off of the band’s second full-length album “Odd Blood,” won’t disappoint those who love MGMT and Vampire Weekend. However, Yeasayer has an electro-twist, and aren’t full of indie pretention, thankfully. They wear tie-dye t-shirts, camping vests and plaid flannel button-ups, and look more like the weird college guys next door who go camping and drink hard lemonade.

MAGS TO KNOW: Indie

Hillary Frazier — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 18:48:34 +0000

In honor of the recession, Kingdom of Style’s Queen Michelle cut back on the mag buying, but still purchased a new and lovely copy of Indie, an Austrailian publication. Queen Michelle had a lot to say about the magazine, and took photos of all the awesome spreads in Indie.

“The writing can be rather amusing due to some translation errors which, clearly not deliberately, make for quite funny reading. It features designers that I have never heard of in the ‘Introducing’ section which is refreshing, and it doesn’t have this seasons Balmain on every page.”

Now that’s the kind of magazine I want to read.
