Indie clothing, indie lifestyle and indie fashion

We were invited to a housewarming party couple of weeks ago. A couple friend of ours had just moved into their new home after tying the knot six month ago. These two lovely people enjoy indie fashion and as expected, their new house was filled with many indie furnishings and furniture including a few artisan items bought during their previous travels.

Being an outdoor person myself, I like the way the patio was designed. They had a couple of patio chairs with a lovely wood crafted table designed by an indie designer they met during one of their travels. The interiors of the rooms were also filled with beautiful paintings collected over the years. One look at the choice of furnishings and you could tell that everything in the house was original and unique. It took them some time to put everything together and the house was almost like a piece of art itself.

Shopping for artisan and indie products has been made easy with many online stores in the web. Technology has made it possible for artisans and designers all over the world to share their love and passion of art and indie fashion with more individuals who appreciate individuality and uniqueness.

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!

I’ve been under the weather the last couple of weeks. This fever keeps coming in and out and I’ve been getting more bedrest than usual. This gives me more time to surf and check online for more indie fashion since I’m home bound. Besides, I’ve been thinking hard about my micro niche in my online business.

One of the things that I find it so cool is that there are also indie fashion designed for little children. Well, by saying this, I’m referring to the organic clothing range I found online designed by responsible designers. So you may like to classify them as eco friendly fashion too. Indie fashion is often associated with ethical clothing where fair trade is often practiced.

So while checking on some colon cleanser reviews for my health business, I came across some cute Frenchy Baby Tunic Outfit made of pure organic cotton. Parents will love the Wide leg drawstring pants, short sleeve onsie, and the natural tunic with coconut buttons for their little babies. Besides I think they made great indie gifts too. And for more gift ideas for those who adore indie fashion, this OBLI Organics Kimono set is stylish and modern.

One thing in the world of fashion is apparent: Fashion comes and goes in cycles and what was in style when you were young will most likely be considered vintage fashion when you grow up and have children of your own. So those that you thought were indie and vintage can become the talk in fashion one day!

In the fashion industry, people have had to deal with fashions coming back in and out since the beginning of clothing. People have always been concerned with being the best dressed and as time passed, ideas for fashion started to wane and styles and ideas were repeated, hence the continued popularity of vintage fashion. Those who sought an indie lifestyle like to mix the old and the new. They like to show others that they are a fashion forward type of person who is able to confidently mix up fashions without appearing overly made-up or ridiculous.

Fashions will continue to come in and out of style as long as there are fashion designers and people there to write about and buy the clothes. We will not escape fashion, especially vintage type fashions, so we might as well embrace it and wear it proudly. Even if you are a technie dealing with software development, you still want to be socially fashionable in your own way.

So feel free to enjoy your indie lifestyle as you enjoy the world of vintage and retro fashion and make them as individual as you want. After all, you live only once.

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.

I was so thrilled to find a cool indie clothing site the other day. Well, what inspired me what how this online indie clothing store had started – it reminded me of the importance of a vision or dream in life.

I shop online for lots of things these days, from invitation cards to fashion clothing to household items. I even told my hubby that we should shop for energy light bulbs so that we don’t need to worry about running out of light bulbs in the middle of the night!

I was pointed to check out Beautifeel, a shoe label and it just occurred to me that there are more and more entrepreneurs in the online shopping industry today. Not sure if you notice but indie fashion and indie labels is growing in popularity towards the mainstream fashion movements too. What’s encouraging is that these indie labels have even made it to the catwalk and created a greater awareness among fashionistas and trendsetters.

Ceramic vase, ‘Ancestors of Cupara’ This vase, with its generous curves and graceful shape, comes from Shiroque. He takes his inspiration from the so-called “magic plates,” painted on ceramic and discovered in Cupara (Arequipa). No one knows the meaning of the figures, but they are believed to be a part of rituals and offerings for Pachamama, or mother earth.

Personally I do hope that online shopping for indie labels and label fashion will grow since the internet is the fastest way to reach the masses. For unique handcrafted jewelry, handmade, unique art vases, handcrafted jewelery, handcrafted beaded jewelry, unique handcrafted home products or handcrafted gifts, I like to shop at Novica, an online shop that represents artisans from all over the world.
