RIP MJ Michael Jackson Tribute to the 80s Shirt Now Online

RIP MJ SOLD OUT

I’m sure MJ’s death is as much of a shock to all of you as it is to me… may he rest in peace. So, in tribute to the ever fashion forward and musically gifted Michael Jackson I’ve come up with a tribute shirt that I hope will do his name some justice! I’ve used the perfect sheer muscle tee, in true 80s Michael Jackson style, that can be dressed up or down for any occasion and am offering one-of-a-kind hand stenciled printings of this design! I custom print each “RIP MJ” design on 100 percent cotton white scoop neck muscle tee and will hand stud the MJ in washable gold round faceted studs just for you!

Check out my Etsy store to show your support!

PS: if there are any guys out there who would like this shirt printed on a Mens tee email me or message me on Etsy and I’ll set up a listing for you!

Super Duper Sunnies: Oversized overdone? Go Hi Tek with Alexander!

With summer inching closer, it’s that time again when sunglasses are brought to the forefront of fashion. Oversized shades have had reign over the market for too long now and it’s definitely time for a change… especially after seeing all those cute round sunnies on the likes of Alexa Chung and Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen.

So I got to thinking and searching until I stumbled upon the goldmine that is Alexander Hi Tek — a London based designer who makes some of the coolest wares around! A veteran designer of the 80s and 90s, his sunglasses are on par with the big designers (think Karen Walker shades but less pricey and better selection!)… but they’re definitely not for the feint of heart! And with prices starting around 30 EUR they’re pretty reasonable for designer sunglasses and a real piece of 80s history! I suggest you grab a pair before he realizes he can charge 5 times that price…

Check out some of his amazing designs below!

Awesome... since I don't think you can even see out of these!

Now that's fashion... I don't think you can even see out of these!

***And there’s more where that came from… check out his site to see his entire collection. It’s definitely a testament to the fact that if your behind the times long enough you’ll become ahead of your time again… I just wish I was a hip enough little kid in the 80s to know about him!
