Tattoo Sleeve Shirts when you want to look all tatted out

If you like tattoo art but are just not ready to commit to getting full tattoo sleeves tattooed on your arms then Tattoo Sleeve Shirts are a fun alternative. They also make a fun novelty item to wear when attending events or visiting family members as they will make everyone take a second look wondering if you recently got tattooed!


We like the Ladies tattoo sleeve shirts seen on TattooApparel.com . You can choose from plain Pink or Black T Shirts with koi fish or floral tattoo sleeve shirts or take a look at the Black Shirts with rhinestone embellishments and flames or butterflies tattoo sleeves.























For guys there are tattoo sleeve shirts made by Inkslingers. The Inkslingers guys shirts are also popular with plus size gals.

Ambigrams, Illuminati, Angels and Demons

The much anticipated Angels and Demons movie hits theatres soon. It is based on the Dan Brown novel by the same name and centers around the mysterious Illuminati, messages hidden by Ambigrams and in ancient works of art. Dan Brown is most famous for The DaVinci Code. Tom Hanks again plays the lead in this exciting story.


The movie has brought Ambigrams to the attention of the world. We love the Red Chapter Clothing Ambigram Shirts that are available at www.TattooApparel.com, www.PerpetualVogue.com and on Amazon.com . Red Chapter Ambigram shirts feature Ambigram designs by Mark Palmer the most prolific Ambigram artist in the world.
















While the most popular designs recently have been the Saint/Sinner and Salvation/Damnation designs we expect the new Angels and Demons design for ladies to become very popular now. The Angels and Demons shirt just arrived along with the new Love/Hate Shirt.














Red Chapter shirts have become popular with many Musicians and Celebrities as can be seen in these photos featuring Jamie Foxx, Mario Lopez, Levar Burton and Apocalyptica.

Hand Made Bold Bracelets from Chic Wrists now on Etsy

When looking for big and bold charm bracelets for our retail store last year we came to realize that no one made just what we were looking for. We wanted Large edge designs that would be like Charm Bracelets on Steroids. We came to the conclusion that we would just have to make them ourselves. So we spent some time searching out the components that would become part of our new designs and came up with the name Chic Wrists.

Chic Wrists bracelets are for the gal that likes big, bold jewelry that makes a statement. We use large metal charms in Rocker or Tattoo Art designs including Skulls (of course), Mermaids, Koi Fish, Tigers, Cobras, Guitars, Music Notes, Skeleton Keys and Dice. We then add Crystal Beads, Glass Beads, Semi Precious Stones and more. We use Lobster Claw Clasps to keep the bracelets secure on your wrist and many of our designs come with a FREE pair of coordinating earrings.

Chic Wrists bracelets are available at www.ChicWrists.com , www.TattooApparel.com , www.PerpetualVogue.com, www.RockerJewelry.com and on Amazon.com .












This afternoon we decided to open up a store on the Etsy platform and just listed a few of our Chic Wrists designs there. There is some pretty darn cool stuff in the jewelry section of Etsy - it is really worth checking out when you are looking for unique accessories.

Not your grandmas Cardigan! Sexy Cardigans for modern women

IF when you think of Cardigans a vision of sweet old ladies in slouchy sweaters comes to mind then we are here to change your vision.







We love the sexy cardigans for women from Lucky 13 Apparel. Think retro Pin Up Girl with a modern edge. Lucky 13 makes button front ladies cardigans that are functional yet wicked sexy at the same time. They can be worn over a top like any other cardigan yet we love to see them worn alone -as the top with several top buttons left undone to show off your cleavage. They look incredible worn this way over a tight pencil skirt or your favorite jeans.



















Some of the Lucky 13 cardigans have designs embroidered on them, some have the designs printed and one, the Tonight Cardigan even has vintage look black feathers adorning it's neckline. The names are as fun as the cardigans themselves. The Love Em and Leave Em Cardigan has a pair of pistols on it, the Night Prowler Cardigan has a Purple Sacred Heart and Batwings design and the Trophy Girl Cardigan is one of our favorites with the Racing Cup inspired design and belted back to accentuate the waist.

These Cardigans and more designs can be found in the Lucky 13 Category on www.TattooApparel.com or www.PerpetualVogue.com and they can also be found on Amazon.com .

Rock of Ages goes to Broadway!

We heard recently from one of our favorite guitarists, Joel Hoekstra of Night Ranger that the off - Broadway Show, Rock of Ages was on its way to Broadway. The show opens on Broadway in less than a week. We are excited for Joel and the rest of the cast (which includes Constantine of American Idol fame) to see this show hit Broadway. Rock of Ages features Rock Music from the 80's including songs from Nightranger, Journey, Styx and Bon Jovi.

In a message we received from Joel this morning he mentioned that he wears one of the Rocker Jewelry pendants ( one with a cobra on it ) that he purchased from RockerJewelry.com while on stage in the show. Below he is seen in another pendant from RockerJewelry.com the Roylaty Crown Pendant.





















Joel was also kind enough to send over photos of himself from a recent band photo shoot wearing the Doctrine Shades and Swords Shirt from TattooApparel.com . The photos of Joel were taken by Lone Star.





















Night Ranger will be doing 50 - 60 shows accross the United States in 2009. Be sure to check out their web site for tour dates close to you.

Anama Clothing and Anti Social Clothing Rock Our World!

We have talked before about how impressed we are with Miami based brands Anama and Anti Social Clothing. Our customers agree.



Our female customers are really Rockin Anama fashions. Most ladies that order one piece place an order shortly after for several more Anama styles. Anama uses gorgeous fabrics that look and feel amazing on all different body types. Their sizing is true meaning that the size Large actually fits larger gals making it a gorgeous and versatile brand. We have even had celebrities call us to place orders for Anama - no we are not going to name names here - we do not kiss and tell (at least not without permission and some celebs wish to maintain their privacy). At a recent photo shoot our models oohed and ahhed over each Anama piece we asked them to model in.



















Last week I received an email from a guy wanting to know if Amanda was single as he was dying to meet her and take her out to dinner. It took me awhile to figure out that he loved the way one of our models looked in Anama and was confused thinking that Anama was the models name (Amanda)...Anyway ladies...You will all look great in Anama and may even get more dinner invitations when seen rockin these killer fashions.

Our male customers have been loving Anti Social. 95% of the men that try on a pair of Anti Social or Etzo jeans in our boutique buy them. The are getting quite a following online also. Last week we had a customer order a pair and after receiving his shipment he immediately placed a new order for two more pairs of the exact same jeans stating that he loved them so much that he wanted to have several pair in his wardrobe.





















I have been teasing my husband about the flurry of Anti Social Jeans orders we have seen in the retail store and online over the past week. I used him as a model for one of the designs that is selling so well so I have been teasing him and saying that it is his crotch shot that is selling the jeans to customers all over the world!

If you have not done so yet check out these two edgy brands out of Miami Beach. Miami is a hotbed for fashion these days and we are loving it.

Royal Testament Clothing Tailored High Fashion Meets Rock n Roll

Our first batch of items from Premium Menswear Line Royal Testament arrived this week. We were pleased to see that the quality lived up to and exceeded the quality of the samples we had previewed from this line.

What really impressed us about this line is that while being highly embellished with unique details they do so without the bling that so many other lines are utilizing. The details on Royal Testament Clothing include Leather Crosses on shirts and denim along with quality embroidery, metal buttons and metal emblems . These highly stylized pieces have a tailored look and feel with edgy detailing that is classy as opposed to trendy - no pink rhinestones here guys. They can become part of a guys wardrobe that he can wear for years to come. Finally an edgy mens line that can make any guy look and feel like a Rock Star without the bling - since not every guy wants to wear rhinestones.





















We always know a line is going to be a hit from our models reaction at our photo shoots. Our model for this shoot just did not want to take off the Royal Testament Leather Cross Jeans. The female models we had in that day seemed to really like the way he looked in them too! We love these jeans for the wicked Black Leather Crosses on the back pockets with embroidered wing deailing. We think they are higher quality, edgier and classier than jeans from other lines that sell for twice the price.

We also love the quality look and feel of the Long Sleeve Button Front shirts that have Leather Cross and Shield detals on them. The Cotton / Satin Vest is a great wardrobe piece as it can be worn over t shirts or button front shirts and can also be worn buttoned closed or open.

We are expecting in belts and buckles from this line in the near future along with additional shirts and jeans in early Spring. Royal Testament is available at TattooApparel.com , MensShirtShop.com and at the Perpetual Vogue Boutique in Southern California. You can also purchase Royal Testament on Amazon.com .

Doctrine Slayer Shirt Finally in stock

We have had many folks contacting us asking about the DOCTRINE Slayer shirt before it became available because we used it on our handsome model as part of a recent advertising campaign. We often get preview pieces from top brands and use them in our photo shoots ahead of time so that when the stock comes in we already have the items photographed. We loved this shirt so much we decided to use it in online ads and have been getting requests asking to purchase it ever since.

We are pleased to say it has finally arrived and is currently available in sizes Medium through XL at TattooApparel.com, MensShirtShop.com, the Perpetual Vogue Retail Boutique and on Amazon.com .




















This amazing shirt is just one of many of the latest designs from the Rock Stylists at DOCTRINE. We also love their Legends of Rock Shirt, Bombshell Shirt and other killer designs.

Red Chapter Ambigram Clothing has arrived!

Until a year or so ago we carried Affliction Clothing on our web sites and in our Retail Boutique. We always appreciated the quality of the fabric that Affliction used in their shirts but eventually chose to stop carrying the line for several reasons. One reason was that we wanted an edgy quality line with original art work and after their first season some of the Affliction designs started to look( in our opinion ) like art work that can be found in books rather than hand drawn original pieces.

That is why we were very excited to meet local artist Mark Palmer and be among the first to see his new line of clothing called Red Chapter Clothing. Mark is the leading Ambigram artist in the world. He makes Ambigram designs for tattoos and creates original art work. The Red Chapter shirts are everything that we have been looking for. High quality cotton, made in the U.S.A. with specialty washes & finishes along with amazing original art work. Mark and his team delivered our first order of Red Chapter shirts to us last night and we spent today getting them up on TattooApparel.com and MensShirtShop.com so that our customers would be able to see them in time for Holiday Shopping. We know that our fashion savvy customers are going to love this new line as much as we do. The shirts will also be available in the Perpetual Vogue Boutique starting this week.





















Mark and the team at Red Chapter Clothing create unique clothing designs showcasing stylized Ambigrams. Ambigrams are lettering works of art that can be read both forward and upside down. A Symmetrical Ambigram says the same thing when looked at both ways. An Asymmetrical Ambigram says something different when viewed upside down. The Ambigram for the name RedChapter itself is a symmetrical Ambigram and can be read the same in both directions. The artists at Red Chapter create wearable art with amazing Victorian and Gothic style artwork as a background that showcases an asymmetrical Ambigram design. Red Chapter embraces Duality in their designs as each shirt design has an ambigram showcasing the dual sides of life. This duality in design can be seen in shirts with ambigrams for Saint/Sinner, Angel/Devil, Salvation/Damnation, Victory/Despair and Bravery/Betrayal.

If you are familiar with Dan Brown novels you probably know that Angels and Demons has been made into a movie which again features Tom Hanks returning in the role he had in the Da Vinci Code. Angels and Demons has to do with the Illuminati and Ambigrams come into play in the story.

Check out Red Chapter Clothing and be among the first to discover and own a wearable piece of art from this edgy clothing line.
