Each month we will choose one winner from the customers that left reviews.

New Anama Dresses, Shirts and Tops will Rock you from Spring to Fall






















This year's Anama Spring/Summer Fashion Collection is setting the bar high when it comes to stylish women's wear and edgy menswear. We have been a fan of Anama for years now and have carried the brand in our boutique and on our online store for some time - but we truly feel that the designers at Anama have outdone themselves this season. This season's offerings are truly timeless and are pieces that can be worn year round for seasons to come.

We knew that we were going to love the new pieces before we even saw them in person. We received a beautiful "look book" from the company's designer a week before we were scheduled to meet with them to see the line in person. Upon opening the book we were so excited that we called the designer to congratulate them on the new season's pieces. The book was full of beautifully shot photographs of Anama's models wearing the dresses, tunics and shirts in destinations in the Greek Islands. Having been around the block we knew to look past the beautiful location shots and really observe the fashions themselves and how they draped on the body of the models. The new ladies pieces looked stunning - they looked beautiful yet comfortable at the same time. They were designs that could fit not just size 2 models but curvier gals too and they were pieces that could take you from day to night - edgy yet elegant, European Elegance combined with American Rock n Roll Influences creating a beautiful marriage of fashion. The new men's shirts appeared to be bucking the trend of overblinged out bright colors - instead they opted for edgy styles with embellishments that were in tonal variations that had more texture than bling - shirts that a Rock Star or a regular guy going out on a date would both wear and could keep in their wardrobe for seasons to come.

Then we went to our meeting to see the designs in person and were further blown away by the wonderful feel of the fabrics and the great detailing. A few weeks later the first pieces began to arrive in our store's warehouse - we could not wait to bring in our own models and photographers to shoot the new designs for our web site, www.TattooApparel.com . The photos from the shoot were so fantastic that we had to have some made into posters and framed canvases to hang in our store. We always do our own photo shoots for products as we do not like to use stock photos - we want to show the fashions we carry on our own models (and please NOTE that therefore our photographs are copyrighted to our company - other retailers may NOT copy or use our photographs and to do so is a crime). The photos in this post are photos from our recent photo shoot for TattooApparel.com and the Perpetual Vogue boutique.

The fabrics Anama uses range from Rayon blends to Cotton Modal blends. They all have a wonderful feel to them and drape the body beautifully. Another plus is that these fabrics pack beautifully making Anama fashions fabulous for vacation and travel.





We just added lots of new Anama womens fashions to TattooApparel.com and will be adding the new men's shirts over the next week or so.

New lower prices on DOCTRINE premium series shirts

We have been carrying DOCTRINE Apparel pretty much from the inception of the brand. What attracted us to DOCTRINE was that their styles truly were fashions for Rock Stars with the shirts having real leather embellishments, hand applied metal studding and thick proprietary embroidery added to the amazing art work that was printed on them. The amount of expensive detailing on the original line of premium wear from DOCTRINE was truly amazing. Many of the t shirts retailed for over $165.00 because of the amount of work and detailing. Our musician customers that wanted highly detailed shirts appreciated the line and felt that it was worth the price.

An era has come to an end as the economy has forced DOCTRINE to change their line to hit a lower price point that they feel will make the line something that more people can afford. We previewed the new line in February and will be bringing in some of the new designs in the near future when they are ready. The new designs are still cool with edgy artwork and print designs that we think will appeal to our customers. There is still some embellishment detailing but on a much smaller scale than the original DOCTRINE premium line.

While we are saddened to see the change in the line we think the line will still hold great appeal to our customers and look forward to bringing in the new, lower priced designs.

Having been a big believer in the brand we originally ordered very large quantities of the premium series shirts and have been holding some back so we are one of the few places where they are still available. We have just drastically lowered the prices on our mens DOCTRINE premium shirts to allow our customers the opportunity to own one of the original DOCTRINE shirts including those with lots of leather and embroidery while they last. This is your chance to own a true ROCK STAR quality shirt at a very low price. These highly embellished premium line shirts will not be made again so this is your chance to own something truly unique. One example is the Rock n Roll Royalty shirt with leather guitars on it which was originally prices at $174.95 - we are offering this design, while our supplies last for $94.95.

Why are we doing this? Yes, we could play games and hold back these shirts in order to raise the price up high later when no one has them available. Instead we have decided to have some fun making these unique designs available to more customers who may have originally not been able to justify buying themselves a $175.00 t shirt. The idea of course is to have customers remember that TattooApparel.com is the best place online to shop for cutting edge fashions.

Killer place to shop for ladies shoes!


Okay, I admit it - I love shoes. I can go a few months without buying a pair but then I cannot help myself and have to go on a shoe buying spree. We don't carry shoes in our boutique so I actually do have to shop when I want to buy shoes.

So ladies I am going to share a secret with you. I find the best place to get amazing deals on shoes is at GothamCityOnline. It is not unusual for me to order several pairs at a time (one time I ordered 8 pairs of boots...LOL) from them as their prices are great and the shipping costs are low. We have known the owners of GothamCityOnline for many years as we belong to some of the same Internet Retailers Groups. They are good people who pride themselves on customer service. That said we receive nothing for telling you about them so this is a totally unbiased post. We just like to share great fashion info with our customers and readers and knew our female readers would like to hear about a place to find great deals on shoes.

Check out these great deals we saw today on GothamCityOnline:

For Betsey Johnson fans check out the Betsey Johnson Ricci Animal Print Leather ankle boots. Normal retail is $285.00. They are $131.96 today at Gotham City.


















We also love these chain design pumps from Guess. On sale now for $41.96.

Gotham City carries a large range of brands which includes Carlos by Carlos Santana, Via Spiga, Coach, Hale Bob, KORS by Michael Kors and dozens more. I have bought everything from Sketchers to Heels to Boots from them and love them all.

Okay, time for me to go search for some new shoes in size 8.

If Marilyn Monroe visited a Garage

We received some new stock on the our sexy white Marilyn Monroe dress recently. That got us to thinking about the photo shoot we had done for the dress awhile back. We decided to put together a fun video showcasing what we think would happen if Marilyn was to visit a garage. This is a real dress - not a costume.

Stagewear for the Women of Rock

We just created this fun video from our recent photo shoot featuring the amazing custom leather halter tops that are made for us by Gasoline Glamour. These custom leather tops make killer stagewear for Female Rockers and are great club wear for anyone.
