Indie clothing, indie lifestyle and indie fashion

I had the opportunity to get to know a indie musician friends who are working on a small performance this summer. It is always so inspiring to listen to some refreshing songs and pieces from this group of young people. To me, it takes lots of inspiration to write a piece of indie music… I simply have no talent for that!

With technology, indie artists have more opportunities to promote themselves today. With all the social networking and video portal sites, musicians can submit their performances, gigs or songs and share their music with thousands, if not millions around the world. Some of them are so good in making video clips for their groups that the reach can be instantly explosive! Sometimes they store all their music in various video cards to organize themselves well. I admire the creativity and motivation of these indie artistes and musicians. There is lesser need to strum a guitar on the streets anymore as you tend to reach a small group of audience.

It can be hard finding the right support for those who decide to embrace an indie lifestyle, whether in music or fashion. Indie musicians are often seeking for an audience who appreciates music and individuality. You often hear indie music in artist cafes or lifestyle areas where art and music is being promoted.

For instance, you may be an indie musician looking to promote your own or your group’s upcoming performance. You need all the promotional collaterals like brochures, posters and flyers. For indie musicians, they usually resort to recording their performance with digital camcorders for archival and portfolio reasons. What if you wanna print some CD covers for your album during your show and sometimes, this can be expensive and hard cos printing companies may not entertain small orders. How about duplicating your CD or DVD at short notice in the the quantities you need for promotion? Whatever you need as an indie musician, indy pendy is the site you need to get your promotional support. Need CD Duplication fast? 100 full color discs for $99. 24 hr turnaround – Nationwide!

Whenever I travel to Australia or New Zealand, I’ll make it a point to visit the local Sunday or flea markets in the suburbs or city area. The flea markets in the Pacific tend to be very fun, creative and local. I used to purchase indie clothing, food and lots of other handmade accessories from those flea markets.

Indie artists are in aplenty in Australia and New Zealand and I was privileged to meet many of them. I have lots of respect for these creative and independent individuals as they have strong passion in what they do. I recalled meeting this lovely old lady who sold water color paintings at St Kilda’s beach in Melbourne… she was a real talent at her late seventies! Some of the most beautiful indie clothing were sold by home makers and you can also find other cool indie finds by the disabled community. Some of them made their living by selling their creations at these flea markets to support themselves and covering their own disability insurance costs.

Sometimes indie products may cost a little more and that’s because you don’t get another piece in the same design and style. In other words, they are unique and exclusive. Support indie.

Finally, the long awaited task of getting my indie clothing store is finally done! In the last week, I have been busy selecting and adding the right products for my indie fashion store and I’m really glad that it is now live!

After much search in the web, I have picked out a few indie designer and lifestyle merchants with nice designs and cool products. For now, you will find many indie dresses from ModCloth and I’ll be adding the jewelry and gift items in the next few days. I have also included organic clothing, green clothing, hemp clothing and eco friendly products in the store and most of them are designed and produced by indie designers and artists.

Indie artists should be supporters of eco friendly products and we should play our part to protect Mother Earth. I am impressed by many indie jewelry designers who tap on their creative potential and use recycled materials for their jewelry pieces. This is an innovative way to promote eco friendliness and a responsible way to display creativity.

In fact, we try to support independent companies these days even when it comes to making decisions on auto insurance quotes, we prefer to work with family run firms instead of conglomerates. There are many indie companies that need our support in the offline and online world.

So please stop by our Indie Fashion Store where indie lifestyle begins online. If you have any questions or feedback, please feel free to drop us a comment.

While searching for indie fashion designers, I came across a few eco living online stores that focus on promoting eco natural fashion and products as well as environmentally friendly home accessories.

It’s impressive to note that there are more indie designers who embrace eco living principles in their practices and many of them are also supporting fair trade communities and organic principles. Indie jewelry designers are also exploring on their creativity with recycled materials and the end results can be inspiring and alluring. Novica is a great place to source for indie designer products including clothing, jewelry , homeware, paintings, art pieces and more. A friend of mine was searching for diamond engagement rings and stumbled on some cool creations from indie designers and artists.

The world of indie design is continuing to grow and in no time, more budding designers and artists will continue to join in the fold.

Finally, I managed to locate a few indie clothing merchants and can begin my indie store planning soon.

It’s amazing to note that the indie industry is growing and there are more independent artists and designers emerging in these troubled times. Some of these indie designers went off to create new items that most people wouldn’t think off so you can expect to see more add ons in Etsy. There are also many indie fashion sites by small business owners and entrepreneurs.

Indie living can also refer to those who chooses ethical living and eco living as many of them who design ethical clothing are independent designers. I was checking out on a diet pill website and stumbled upon many indie affiliate programs in the web. Unfortunately, many of these indie sites offer very low commission to affiliates who aren’t very attractive at all.

Whatever it is, I’m set to build my indie clothing store so you should expect to see a change in this site soon.

Everyone is riding on the Earth Hour hype this week and what is your take about this? The indie community has long been doing their bit to save the earth but producing environmentally friendly products.

There are many indie designers who work on recycled materials and using them to create pieces of art and unique designs. You can see them everywhere now from an online etsy store to an offline flea market. Indie designers are getting more talented as technology emerges. You can buy netbooks covers and skins designed by indie artists and handmade jewelry by indie designers at Etsy. Though some may cost a little more, you can be rest assured that your design purchases are attached with a touch of uniqueness and individuality.

Support indie.

I’m getting so exasperated from finding the righ niche for this blog. It looks like I may settle for indie fashion or something along the eco friendly line since many indie artists are great supporters of eco living.

Green style, green living, indie living, indie style – they all seem to belong together. I came across this great green lifestyle site and many of the green clothing are designed by indie artists. Their love for the environment combined with their creativity sets high standards for indie fashion.

My hubby gave me a wonderful idea of what I can do to make this site an interesting one. Since the word ‘indie’ is often used among indie music and indie artists, he’s suggesting that I should include music related items into my site.

In the next one week, I’ll be researching more of his suggestions besides searching for insurance quote for our family. Though I’m not a musician myself, I’ve always long to learn how to play a guitar or a musical instrument. With so many budding indie artists out there, the world of music will continue to grow no matter how tough times may be. My research for this indie blog continues…

Whenever I feel like I need a bit of girlish inspiration, I love browsing through the web for jewelry and accessories and one of my favourite online indie store is Novica.

You can find all sorts of unique handicrafts and artistic finds in Novica from handmade jewelry to hand crafted home and living products. I find the handmade jewelry very appropriate for weddings and special occasions. In fact, they made great gift ideas too. Besides a wide collection of jewelry, Novica has lots of talented designers and indie artists from all over the world and I find it a great place to shop for gift ideas for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings…etc. As thanksgiving and Christmas draws nearer, this may be a good place to start your festive shopping… you will sure to find great gift ideas for those who appreciate handmade and unique Clothing and Accessories from around the world!
