american apparel

hey guys

so i am with laura and we are talking about all of the items that american apparel has been carrying recently (besides clothes) like dr bronners soap and those orange rhoda graph paper notebooks. we are going to start a new game called WHAT WILL THEY DO NEXT and everyone can guess what american apparel will sell next to its demographic (aka us). so post your guesses!

p.s. as you all know my thesis centers on aa and i was just on a tour of the factory where they told me about aa's next new store idea which is american apparel vintage select— aa buys vintage fabric and clothes and resews/modifies them to fit aa styles of clothing and sells the "vintage" stuff in the stores. so far they only have vintage select stores in la, paris and berlin. ...... uptown next?!?

Mark Your Calendars

Two Items:

1. This Halloween, we (Grace, Laura, and Julie), and hopefully all of the rest of us, are dressing up as "the farm." We will be going to a bar, or possibly a house party, dressed as animals; two to a costume (think horse front and back) on tandem bicycles. We will remain anonymous all night long.

2. Next summer will be the first annual "Rooster Retreat." We will vacation for an extended period---possibly two weeks--at a cabin or beach house somewhere. Or maybe Webb Lake.

Please post your comments and thoughts.
