Indie clothing, indie lifestyle and indie fashion

These days, people are going for wireless connection to get information no matter where they are. Even those in the indie fashion industry are reaching out to the media via social networking and you simply can’t reach your customers easily without technology!

Whenever I’m out in the cafes, I will whip out my iPhone and checked out the latest news in town. I get lots of indie fashion updates and finding out where else to read fashion news. I know that people are actually shopping online with their mobiles… I mean, how mobile and high tech can one be in the 21st century! In the past, I used to carry a camcorder when I attend fashion shows and with today’s high tech gadgets, I only need my iPhone or my digital camera.

Well, I’m searching for new ideas for my indie fashion store this week. Somehow, it’s hard to find the right items to promote as there aren’t many indie labels in the worldwide web. I hope that there will be more indie designers coming on board to the fashion scene and share their passion in life to others.

I received a nice surprise a couple of weeks before the New Year. My hubby bought me an iPhone for my belated birthday and I was thrilled! After speaking a few indie friends of mine, I found out that they have been loyal users of this cool smartphone and one was even talking about creating an indie fashion application in the near future.

With thanks to technology, indie fashion has been more prominent now. More indie designers are promoting their designs and creations through online technology via blogs and websites. You can now buy handmade things from sites like Etsy and this helps to encourage the efforts of the indie design community. What’s great to know is that many of these designers and artists are stay at home moms or individuals from many parts of the world. The indie movement will continue to grow with this continuous support. Even a motorcycle accident attorney friend of mine is shopping at these design sites for more unique and exclusive finds.

Who knows, I may look into some indie fashion designs of my own in the near future when I find more time to fulfill my dreams and goals. Be an indie design supporter.

It is always an inspiration for me to see budding designers showcasing their works and creativity in art fairs and such. During my last trip to Singapore, I noticed a growing trend of creative t-shirt designers among the young designers and it was a good thing. The indie fashion industry is also growing as more teens and younger generation express themselves through artistic designs and creative pieces.

I was asked to shop for some urban, cool and unique t-shirts for a friend who is organizing an appreciation party for her art students. Without any doubt, I headed to the website of Uneetee which launches new t-shirt designs every Monday. Thus, you can always get new looks, new styles and designs if you are looking something different. I onced bought a cool t-shirt from the website and presented it to a friend in DNA testing studies… what a break from the traditional t-shirts on the racks!

So for cool t-shirts that are indie, creative and unique, check out the new t-shirt design every Monday!

The internet is a vast of information for everyone of all ages. People use it to search from indie clothing to indie music, from organic living forum to outdoor forums.

Personally, I used it both for leisure and work. For business, it’s used for research and lots of promotional activities. For leisure, it’s for my passion in indie clothing, health matters, exercise, fitness and more. Basically, the search engines are powerful enough to bring back any kind of information and material you need including online videos, photos, chatting and social networking.

What do you use the internet for?

It’s Valentine’s day today! how are you celebrating this hearty occasion?

As much as I think many retailers have commercialized it, it is good to take time to show our love and appreciation to those we treasure. Our family has decided to go simple this year. We decide to go indie! Instead of expensive dinners and gifts, we decide to make each other some simple indie gifts, cook a homemade dinner and enjoy a nice movie together since we just got a new plasma tv which is now sitting nicely on the plasma mount.

Perhaps, you can design or choose some indie gifts instead of those mass produced ones. How about creating your own painting or be your own indie designer. With some thoughts and efforts, everyone can indeed be an indie designer.

Exploring indie music is never my forte thus I find it hard to redefine the topic of this blog. For a long time, I’ve been thinking about defining the theme but still, the search has been hard.

Independent music is a nice subject to talk about so it’s one possibility. I was shopping for Rackmount monitor the other day and saw a festival on indie music featuring indie artists. So yes, I can transform this blog to indie music, independent artists, clothing indie and stuff pertaining to indie movement. Somehow this term ‘indie’ is not commonly used now and people love to relate ‘indie’ to a movement. Let’s see how my search for ‘indie’ goes. It is a nice domain and I would like to make good use of it.

Any indie ideas out there?

This seems to be a rough year for many people with lots of retrenchment and financial turmoil for many industries. People are changing their lifestyles to cope with turbulent times as things continue to look bleak in the new year.

Personally, I have been looking at low cost term life insurance rates and other ways to streamline our financial spending in the coming year. It looks like I would have to shop less and consider other creative means to cut cost in my lifestyle. Perhaps it’s a good time to learn how to knit or sew since I’ve always wanted to create my own clothing. I foresee that the indie design market will become popular as more people turn to making things with their hands. This may also mean that more people may discover their inner talents and turn indie designers during these difficult times.
