DimePiece has their Fall/Winter 2009 Lookbook floating around and thought some of you might like this. The lone model you might notice is Bad Boys own RnB singer, Cassie. The new look is edgey and you can understand the collaboration between the two in this collection. The collection includes graphic tees, skirts, dresses and some pants.  I also got the video for you, too.  To view the entire collection coming this check out  the DimePiece site.

On Saturday, I had the privilege to meet an aspiring young designer/skateboarder by the name of Reggie Forde. Reggie may seem like your average 15 year old, but you might want to think again. With his passion for boarding and streewear he is intent to bring his label, Junk Fuel, to the world. The basic idea for the label was inspired one day while eating at a local fastfood spot back in may of 2008, eating junk food of course. The name as he explains ” Basically represents the people out there who get a boost after eating junk food to fuel them through any activity”. Who can’t relate to that? The designs range from burgers, sodas and other snacks placed on tees and boards. Reggie has his hands in every aspect of his label but has a great supporting staff in his family and friends that contribue to his success. He believes in the brand and wants to expand the line-up for future releases to include accessories: socks and laces for now. Shops from around the country are already hitting this kid up to stock up on his products. Now that his label is a year older, Reggie wants to expand his reach overseas to Dubai and establish a one-of-a-kind skate shop in a area that is lacking such retailers. What 15 year old is doing that?  Show your support and love for the brand by heading to the Junk Fuel web store and view his entire collection.

A BAthing Ape (BAPE) has annouced that they plan to open a temporary BAPE Pirate store in New York City at the start of the new school Semester. This will be an outlet-style store with clothing, footwear and other accessories to calm your craving. The store itself is going to be up from September 3rd till the September 7th with no word yet of a location. I will bring you that info as soon as its released.

A few weeks ago, 10. Deep dropped a preview of the Fall 2009 line, Proud to be a Problem, and now comes the Lookbook of the collection. The brand has come a long way and have pushed the envolope on their collection. Some of 10. Deep’s evolving pieces in the line-up include a wide range of cut and sew pieces, fitted hats, new denim and of course the graphic tees. I love the ribbon they have included, hope they come with the purchase. Check em out at 10. Deep’s web store.

When we said that this week was going to be huge for 10.Deep, we weren’t kidding around. With the upcoming release of our Fall 09 lookbook, which drops Wednesday August 19th, and our mixtape project with Donnis, we figured it was about time to check our intellects at the door at least for a few hours with a party that will either make the morning papers or the police blotters.
