Live From Boston, it’s Saturday Night with Bad Rabbits!

… and it’s for a great cause!

Physicians For Haiti and Karmaloop bring Bad Rabbits back to Boston to commemorate the six month anniversary of the Haiti earthquake and raise relief funds in the funkiest way possible. Our boys have been back and forth between The Hub and Los Angeles working on the next effort with New Jack Swing godfather Teddy Riley, and we’re stoked to finally hear what Riley and the Rabbits have been cookin’ up – not to mention checking out sets from Oxymorons, Will Dailey and The Rivals and Gifrants.

Doors open at 6:00 p.m. and it all throws down soon thereafter, so get there early – this is one jam you don’t want to miss!

Please click the flyer above or visit www.rememberhaiticoncert.com for tickets and more information, and we’ll see you there!

Split personality

Feeling saucy?  Why not showing some newly sun-kissed skin with a split back top like this one by Rojas.  Not that brave? That’s Ok, throw on a cami underneath for a look that’s a bit more understated, but just as sexy.

Boyfriend’s closet

Maybe it’s the fact that my wallet can’t keep up with my insatiable need for new clothes or maybe it’s just sheer laziness, but recently I have found myself raiding my boyfriend’s closet with increasing frequency.  I’m really into the whole over-sized button down look for summer–pair with a fedora and some strappy flippy floppies for a supercute and casual beachy look.  I suppose for 66 bones, I can afford to buy my own.

Married to the Mob on Plndr

Holy Hellz via MISS

Karmaloop and MISS <3 our girl Lanie from Hellz Bellz! Since the inception of Hellz-Bellz in 2005, founder and creative director Lanie Alabanza-Barcena has been heralded as a game changer in the womens wear industry. With an appreciation for the subcultures of our past and present, Hellz-Bellz provides contemporary clothing that represents a rebellious youth, a creative class, a community of forward thinking females that know not the bounds of social norms. Each cut-and-sew piece and every collaborative project is designed down to the very last detail, keeping in mind the need to feed the appetites of the fashion savvy who crave an alternative to the conforming fashion of today. The girls at MISS shot Lanie over a brief survey, where they got her opinion on everything from fake nails to her favorite season of Houswives.  Check it:

Welcome to MusicTown, may I service you?

Ahh this a movie of so many epic quotes, it’s hard to pick just one for the title of this post! My favorite character was definitely Lucas (followed closely by Mark) but it was Corey–played by a very young Liv Tyler– who undeniably had the best wardrobe. Get a modern version of her late 90′s duds with the Alternative Apparel Flash Dance Sweatshirt, the  BB Dakota Catriona Skirt, and the Seychelles Meteor Shower Boot.

MTTM Exclusives!

Clearly all those lucky enough to be in your inner circle already know how rad you are, but are you feeling the need to advertise your status as Most Official Bitch to the general public? If so, what better way to do it than with some of these feisty MTTM tees, sold exclusively on Karmaloop?

A whole new world…

Whoever is in charge of Disney’s marketing team deserves a hefty bonus this year–suddenly it seems that the ubiquitous brand and its cartoon mascots are turning up in the most unlikely of places, especially when it comes to streetwear and verge culture. MAC has just announced a collaboration with Disney that will hit in September featuring a collection inspired by Disney Villianesses, while Adidas has teamed up with Disney to create an exclusive line of Toy Story 3 kicks for kids and babies! Even more surprising though, are New York based Arist Kaws’ Pinocchio inspired vinyl toys showing at the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum, and Disney x CLOT’s Man in the Forest” pop up shop, “the first store in the world where ground breaking Disney collaborations with leading designers will be sold under one roof.” Want in on the Disney action? Check out our select pieces by Disney Couture!

Whoot Whoot!

…We went to Japan! Don’t be jelly though, because we brought it back with us for you. Check out the cuteness overload, sick fashion trends, interviews with JP’s coolest artists and the steez of JP. Next week on KTV Japan Week begins. Be ready to dive into the JP’s “all future everything”, minus the 14 hour flight…You win the game!

We had a blast and brought the KL flava to the east! We hung out the legit Japanese way (non of that tourist trap crap). We shot pure gold. Some awesome peeps gave KTV some love, some of which you might already now of. We did a photo shoot with Joyrich in Japan. (btw stay tuned for our super duper July Chick-of-the Month) When I say “we” I mean the whole Karmaloop crew actually rocked Joyrich in the shoot–like model steez! You’ll get to see some of “the behind the curtain” KL crew members.

We had famed (infamous rather) photographer, Yonehara on our side. If you don’t know who he is, Google him stat. You will notice a resemblance to a certain Mr. Richardson. You didn’t hear this from me, but Yonehara was actually the first to pioneer this type of photography. Don’t snitch!  Anyway he is an ill dude who followed us around Tokyo and put together a photo journal of our shenanigans over seas.

We met dance hall queen, Junko, did some booty shaking for us. This girl has got it like WHOA. Seriously, it’s an art what she does with her butt and she kills it! They don’t call her the dance hall queen for nothing, so take notes girls!

Ai, I can’t even say much except the fact that in 6 months she will be the next MIA and I can say I told you so! Don’t sleep on this girl, she is nasty (not like dirty nasty but really good nasty) with her music.

OMG, we’ve got so much more cutie goodies to show you, but I can’t keep disclosing information and ruin the surprise! I am just over excited about what we have to show you. The Japan wonderland, check it out next week on KTV!
