Strange Postcards from Yesteryear
Posted in Art, Film, Food & Drink, Travel, tagged 60's, 70'S, KODACHROME, POSTCARDS on July 30, 2009 | 2 Comments »
I love old, vibrant Kodachrome photo’s from the 60’s and 70’s. They’re so overly colorful that it often reminds me of trying to set the color on television set and getting it all wrong.Even the illustrations of the time follow the same suit. These featured photo’s are actually postcards, which makes it even more interesting. How [...]
Capsule ‘09 – Garbstore
Posted in Fashion, Travel, tagged 09, capsule, Garbstore on July 30, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
One of my favorite booths at Capsule this year had to be Garbstore. I’ve always been very drawn to English brands as they seem to know how to capture the classics without straying too far from new design and functionality. Check out some of the 60/40 inspired jackets that actually have some incredible linings in bowling [...]

Here’s to another Godfather of tattooing. Bert Grimm was a blossoming tattoo artist in the midewest who honed his craft and eventually moved west and opened many shops in the southern California region. I constantly find myself staring at these and finding something new everytime. Head over to Garage Magazine for one of the better [...]

I don’t know much at all about this group from the late 60’s besides that they were only around a few years, and in that short time…made some incredible music. Take note with this gem.

If you’ve been reading D&D the past week, you’ll see a lot of Levi’s love. I won’t act like they don’t hold a special place in my heart, because it’s obvious that they’re probably my favorite jean. I wear a lot of different brands, but I always come back to Levi’s for good measure, comfortability, [...]

These photo’s of an unknown Jazz club taking an outing pretty much screams what summer is all about. Water play, music, food, and drinks make up the best of any day in the sun.

Capsule ‘09 – Florsheim by Duckie Brown

I wasn’t too sure what would come about after the first time I heard of Florsheim, one of the oldest shoe makers from over a century that’s still around today, teaming up with the new age designer Duckie Brown. Danny Livingston of the partnership gave me one of the best history lessons on the two [...]
