Social Atelier: Fashionable and Socialy Aware


Inform. Think. Inspire. Feel. Challenge. Innovate. Declare. Truth.
Social Atelier is a line of organic and socially conscious t-shirts started by Andrei Nejjar and Yael Afrait. Sporting lines like "No one wins in war" and "Thailand Pakistan Indonesia New Orleans 2006", the shirts aim to promote awareness of social issues plaguing the world. Not only geographical issues such as war and famine, but also things like body image with the "39 "19 "33 shirt ( my personal favorite), which are Barbie's demensions if she was scaled to human size. Besides being conceived on my birthday a few years ago, Social Atelier is also awesome because it advocates awareness of real issues all while creating a style of their own and contributing to the metamorphisis in urban fashion. %50 of the proceeds from Social Atelier go to support the Solar Cooker Project, a non profit in Darfur that aims to provide a source of income, safety, skill development, and of course a more effecient way to cook food for women and children of the community.

So this is Drake (still Jimmy in my eyes) highly anticipated first video, a prelude to a supposedly awesome album coming in the fall. All I have to say is : wtf! The w-t-f don't even deserve captilization because the video was that drab, boring, and stupid. Now I love Drake and I have been an avid supporter of him since 06' but this video, which by the by was produced by Kanye, is just another excuse to show women with big tits running around with no freakin clothes on. All they did was switch up the club/party atmosphere and trade it in for a gym and a locker room. Not that I expected some great philisophical video with amazing imagery and deep meaning, but with all the hype, his previous musical work, and Kanye on the production team i just expected a little more. Not to mention something a little less low budget looking. I slightly blame it on his recent affiliation with Young Money, ever since he started making records with Wayne about 1.5 years ago his flow changed. The talent and metaphors are still there but the messages and dilivery are different. Hmm...but what can you do? With a guy who praises his girl for being the "fucking best" , what more did I really expect. Still love the song, but I can't support the above foolishness...except the half time speech...the half time speech was indeed funny. toodoloo

So today I went to the scrap exchange looking for some stuff to make a belt with. Eventually I was inspired by some fabric and a bin of 10 cent pins to create my own custom made pins. So with some scraps I purchased including soda can tabs and fabric...along with an old christmas bow I found, I have created some Rosie Schizo Originals. Oh yeah...I made the belt too...but that will come later..lol
