A few weeks ago, Liz and I were invited as guest speakers to the Ladies Lotto SF chapter meeting.  We took it as an opportunity to get some of the M.I.S.S. ladies together and the ladies came dressed to impress.  Everyone was looking fabulous but we didn’t have time to shoot everyone.  We did get some flicks of Reina and Michelle.  Reina looked lovely in a vintage dress mixed with some heavy metal accents.  Michelle looked chic in a dress that she designed AND made herself . . . she’s a lady of many talents!  Check out the rest of their looks after the jump.

Claw Money recently dropped her Fall 08 Collection called Everything I Love Is Illegal, Immoral or Fattening. The line includes her One of A Kind re-worked Starter Jackets where she added her trademark claw symbols and stripes. Since the jackets are vintage, they’re all - you guessed it - one of a kind. The rest of the collection includes t-shirts, fleece crew necks and sweatshirts for boys and girls. The graphics definitely reflect Ms. Claw’s sassiness with images that state: “Boom, I got Your Boyfriend” (remember that song?!), Lips, Tits and Hips, Power Money Sex and Brace Yourself. The collection is cohesive and cute and damn, I love those Starters! You can get the collection at Colette, Union NYC, Maxfields LA and Patricia Field. Check out more pictures from the collection after the jump.

Me gusta “Me Gusta” mucho!!! Some months ago I received a friend request on myspace from a music page called “Me Gusta”. How many music friend requests do you get on the daily…tons and it tends to be lot’s of  stuff, that well…no me gusta. Don’t remember what it was exactly that made me stick around and have a listen…perhaps the pict of them rockin’ vintage Starter Jackets and Jordan gear but after the first beat dropped on their “Mr Me Too La La Remix”, I stuck around to listen to all their tracks and even added their “Small Sunshine Lover Remix” to my myspace page for a hot sec.

The Me Gusta duo is Sean Paul and Domo and they represent for The Bay Area working their magic from San Jose, CA. Their sound is on some tech-hop-8-bit-808-blip-blop craze and it most certainly GOES! Oh and their vintage game is tight. Did I mention they are only 17 yrs old? Yeah.

California-based Los Angeles TC has created a line of the most comfy cozy tees. The styles are really unique and come in super-long varieties (sleeve and bodice) and even reversible styles with different graphics on each side (see below). Many of the styles and graphics were inspired by vintage tees, for example, tees with “Baby 89″ printed on them. They also make these really cool bags out of vintage hunting jackets from the 1940’s. Check out the rest of the pictures after the jump.
