Meetings with Alloy and Seventeen Magazine about our Funny t shirts!

Wednesday, August 6th, 2008

So besides going to shows and cruisng around town with has-been governors (see our blog post from yesterday about my trip to New York City), we’re also meeting with some big whigs in the city.

Today I met the buyer from Alloy, for the first time. She’s picked up a lot of our funny t shirts, which have been doing real well, so we finally had to meet. We invited her to our NYC showroom and it was a true meeting of the minds.

We showed her our new funny t-shirts, chatted about bridge and tunnel girls, and looked into ways we can work together in the future. She actually gave us a bunch of ideas to work on for the meeting–i posted one of our new funny t-shirts below. She challenged us to come up with some vintage looking destination shirts and she was real impressed with our concepts. The new shirts remind me of old school destination shirts you’d find in those old vintage shops. We’re going to be coming out with a whole series of these–if you have any cities you want done, or if you can think of any clever lines for cities, please do email us or post them here.

I’m actually pretty tired so I’ll blog about Seventeen magazine tomorrow–just enjoy the sneak peak at our newest vintage looking funny t shirt.

Tradeshows are awesome for a lot of reasons. One of them, is that we get to hang out with our friends we’ve met at all the shows. It’s like a little community.

The girls from Mermaids are a fun pair–we love seeing them at market. They’re a constant in our booth and it’s always a riot when they sit down to hang out. Check em out in Miramar, FL
