Waylon Jennings Family Plans Film, Clothing Line


Though it's been ten years since Waylon Jennings passed away, you might not be able to tell it from the activity that continues to surround the country music icon. Over the past two years, there have been two tribute discs -- "Waylon: The Music Inside, Volumes 1 and 2," and that's just the tip of the proverbial iceberg.Waylon's son Shooter tells Billboard that there are several ways that Jennings' music and legacy are being newly promoted, a la Johnny Cash. "I have put together a clothing line that will be coming out," he says. Waylon t-shirts, either with his likeness or the famous logo, are hot ticket items these days, and that's not all.
Though nothing has been finalized as of yet, Shooter says "We're talking about a movie. It's been ten years, and it's time to kick up some dust!"In 2005, the young Jennings portrayed his father in the Johnny Cash-June Carter biopic "Walk The Line." Though Cash's onetime Nashville roommate was only a bit character in the film, did the experience whet Shooter's appetite for more film time? "No way," he says. "No more acting. I thought I would walk in and do a good job being my dad, but the first time the cameras came on, I thought 'I am going to ruin this movie.' A few minutes is like a few hours, so a few hours must be a lifetime. We're going to have to find someone who is a really good actor to play him."
Jennings said that having Waylon Jennings as a father was different than you might imagine. "As a kid, I got into music my own way, and moved off to L.A. to play in a rock and roll band, so I never did feel that. If anything, I felt support from him -- which was kind of rare. I was in a house where my parents cared very much about music, and he was very supportive. He wasn't an outlaw, he was a good dad. It was just a term. It was like 'I'm gonna wear pajamas inside the house. Outside, I'm a derelict," Shooter said, with that classic bit of Jennings irreverence intact.Jennings is currently making the promotional circuit rounds to spread the word about his upcoming disc, "Family Man," which hits retail and online sites March 13. Check out our longer discussion with him here .
The assortment features a mix of high-tech fabrics and soft knits designed for comfort and ease of movement on and off the yoga mat. "We're excited to partner with another California brand that, like us, creates high-quality clothing that's easy to wear, versatile, and built to last" notes Ryan Shadrin, Territory Ahead Vice President of Merchandising.

Pop-ups in Venice: Wolf in Sheep's Clothing, Alma and Kali Dining


Lately, pop-up dining central might be the neighborhood of Venice. Maybe it's the by-the-beach location or its bobo residents. Whatever the reason, here are a few to check out:Wolf in Sheep's Clothing took over the old Capri space on Abbot Kinney Boulevard late last year. The pop-up kitchen is managed by chefs Brian Dunsmoor of Axe and Kris Tominaga of Joe's Restaurant. The restaurant was due to end its stint this month but is now in negotiations to extend the operation in the same space for an additional six months while a permanent space is secured; good news for all those who have yet to try the restaurant's reasonably priced, market-driven dishes. The restaurant is open for dinner Tuesday through Sunday. 1616 Abbot Kinney Blvd., Venice.
Chef Kevin Meehan of Cafe Pinot started hosting dinner parties in Culver City earlier this month through his new project, Kali Dining. The pop-up dining experience features a frequently changing menu and location.Why buying fashion clothes in online shopping experience?Meehan prepares and serves a four-course prix-fixe meal for guests in a casual, intimate environment. The dinner series, which costs $65 per person and currently runs Wednesday to Sunday, is on in Venice through early March. And did we mention that he hunts his own hogs too?.
Another pop-up restaurant new to the scene in Venice is Alma. With only a couple of weeks under its belt, the eatery serves weekly changing three- and five-course prix-fixe dinners ($35 and $55,  respectively) Wednesday through Saturday. Housed inside cafe Flake on Rose Avenue, Alma is the brainchild of Dinelle Lucchesi, a former director of an underground social club in San Francisco, and Ari Taymor of San Francisco's Bar Tartine and Flour + Water. Taymor's creations will highlight American cuisine with dishes such as garlic and oyster stew; smoked lentils, carrot, milk skin and nettle; and popcorn with chocolate and soy caramel. "Somebody will do this," James said. "If Gutenberg hadn't created his printing press, somebody else would have. If you look at any industry, somebody had the idea and didn't proceed with it and somebody else came along and grabbed it."
That realization encourages James to keep pushing for Husker fiber's success."We get a lot of naysayers and people playing devil's advocate with a whole long list of reasons why this won't work," James said. "And I say the same thing: If Gutenberg had believed that or Henry Ford had believed that, if Steve Jobs had believed that, you wouldn't have what we have out of those industries today."

The designers will be in attendance at Friday's trunk show, which is open to the public. Shoppers will have the opportunity to meet them and even be styled by them as they mingle in the store.The brothers want to start manufacturing their clothing in the U.S. and are looking to use a company in South Carolina for retail sales within the next year, they said.Business projections are matching their predictions."I think we're right where we wanted to be," said Thomas. "We had conservative numbers because this is a new brand, a new company, and we're trying to sell a short-sleeved shirt in the winter."
"Our goal is to develop this lifestyle apparel line and sell it all over the East Coast and, eventually, the West Coast," Nathan added. "I'd like to think within the next year we'll be at retailers throughout the region. We'd like to make it happen before summer - before it gets to be polo shirt season - and get into those locations where people are getting into the beach theme and are looking for this kind of product."Jerry Talbert, 64, has run J. Talbert Limited for two years but has been in the retail clothing business for decades.
"Right now Atlantic Drift is exclusive here, and we're promoting it and pushing it," said Talbert. "They're two nice young guys, and what they're offering complements what I have."
Talbert said their clothes are right on target compared to similar clothing lines."Not a person comes in here and looks through the whole store without commenting on their products," he said. "This is a local family that wants to get into the clothing business, and we're supporting them. They've got a good plan. It's just a matter of getting their name out."The polo shirts come in five pastel colors. Prices range from $69 for polos to $24-$30 for T-shirts. J.

Clothing drive yields 500 donations


Struck by the need right here in the community for warm winter clothing, Brunswick student and New Canaan resident Reed Schultz partnered with the Outback Teen Center, the Chamber of Commerce and the Department of Human Services to organize a winter clothing drive."The winter clothing/coat drive was a major success that helped not only residents in New Canaan, but also those in surrounding areas," said Health and Human Services Director Carol McDonald. "Over the course of six weeks, we had approximately 500 pieces of clothing, hats, coats, boots, shoes, and more donated. We gave a large portion out to human services clients during the holiday season and then brought other items to Person-2-Person in Norwalk. We are so pleased to have participated and look forward to another drive next year at this time. Thank you to all of our community members who helped make the drive a total success."
"We are grateful for all of those individuals who supported the clothing drive and hope this will become an annual event tied to the season of giving," said Schultz."I didn't know what to expect when we started publicizing that we were collecting warm clothing for local families — there are so many drives out there at this time of year — but I was overwhelmed by the positive response," said Outback Program Director Erin McDermott. "It feels so good to be a part of something that can touch so many lives right around me."
Another issue raised in the Detroit Free Press article was that tags on some of the shirts indicating where they were made had been found by Tompor to be removed. Dubak told the newspaper that he had the tags cut off because of a design choice.Shopping for G Star Jeans and Other Fashionable Clothes.Dubak did not return a call from TODAY.com seeking comment.Removing the labels from goods that fall under federal textile regulations could result in action by the Federal Trade Commission for failing to disclose where the T-shirt is manufactured. It’s unclear if the FTC is looking into the matter with MID, as it does not comment on whether a company is potentially being investigated over violations, according to a spokesperson. Despite the flap over where the shirts are made, retailers who sell them in Detroit and the surrounding suburbs said it has not been an issue with customers. It’s more what’s on the shirt than the label or its origins.

Shopping for G Star Jeans and Other Fashionable Clothes


Young people like to look their best whenever they can but keeping up with the latest fashions can be an expensive business. Internet stores often sell clothes at a discount and provide one way for youths to solve the problem of a shortage of money, if only partially. Another advantage of shopping online is that it is possible to buy almost anything without even having to leave your house. This is especially useful for teenagers that live in remote areas and do not have a car of their own.
The biggest downside to Internet shopping is that it is not possible to try garments on before buying them, to see if they fit properly. However, many companies have recognised this fact and ensured that it does not put their customers off by offering to exchange any items that do not fit or to refund the purchase price. Although it is still necessary to send the garments back and wait for replacement items, it is much better than being stuck with clothes that you cannot wear. G Star jeans are among the many brand name clothes that can be found for sale at Internet stores at competitive prices and many other fashionable clothing manufacturers are well represented online.
One problem that younger consumers may encounter when trying to buy clothing online is that they are unlikely to have a credit card unless they are over eighteen. However, other payment methods such as PayPal and debit cards are accepted by many Internet retailers so it should be possible to find a way to pay for what you want to buy. As a last resort, it might be worth asking your parents if they can order the goods for you and giving them the cash. This is a little inconvenient though and many teenagers would rather make their own arrangements.
However you pay for your clothing, you will need a safe address to where it can be sent, which can be a problem for those who are living in shared accommodation. Again, assuming that they do not live too far away, your parents may provide the best solution as the clothing can be sent to their address instead of yours. Alternatively, it may be possible to have orders sent to a friend's house.Simple often buttock big with short legs, improve both the methods is to emphasize that torso, but must be just following the waist short jacket, plus design and color, design is beautiful grab a close look, with brunet moderation Manner Clothes, this method will make the line of look become ambiguous, make the length of the leg becomes some sort of mystery.

Military Fashion Clothing: A Better Way to Dress


Military fashion clothing is being seen all around the world on the streets and on the runway. This style of clothing is becoming extremely popular with celebrities, fashion models, and clothing lovers everywhere. Military fashion refers to any article of clothing that gives off a military feel. This could be a coat that has several laced buttons on it or thigh high footwear. Military style is taking womens fashion clothing by storm. Open up any magazine and you are almost guaranteed to find pictures of models wearing clothing that resembles pieces worn by a century-old soldier.
Clothes that are in the colors of old military styles are also considered apart of womens fashion clothing. These colors will include olive green, dark green, and khaki. Pairing a cute pair of high boots with a pencil skirt that is olive-green will give off a great military appearance. Many women are also choosing to wear hats that are shaped like military caps. Womens military boots are extremely popular since they give off the appearance of ruggedness. These can be worn with a skirt or under a cute pair of straight trousers. Many women may also wear straight pants under thigh high shoes. When choosing high boots, always look for ones that are black, since this is the color most often used in military fashion.
Taking a trip to the local antique store will allow you to shop for your favorite military gear. You don't necessarily have to wear exactly what you buy. By altering pieces, you can give a modern take on old fashions. Adding new, shiny buttons to an old military jacket will allow you to look professionally fashionable. And if wearing a soldiers jacket isn't your cup of tea, try adding different accessories to your look to give off a military feel. Wearing womens military boots with your everyday clothing will look fantastic and very fashionable. Alternatively, you can carry a burlap sack over your arm when going out. Not only are these burlap sacks large and roomy, but they also give off a very nice rugged appeal.
Military fashion can be found virtually anywhere. By visiting your local fashion-friendly store or the nearest military supply shop, you can purchase great looking clothes in minutes. What makes military style clothing so popular is that the style looks great on almost anyone, no matter what the person's body type is. By wearing some of these pieces, you can create a modern wardrobe that focuses on older style clothing.
