"T" TALKS INDEPENDENTS #2 DUTCH.

The other week I was looking through the twitter world and stumbled upon a clothing label that got me so hyped about the whole scene in general that i had to do a post about them, i have already in the small time that i have known about them copt myself one of there pieces and i have to say it is insane like crazy clever but simply with just the words "DUTCH."

I love finding these new labels and spreading the word about these guys because if they are good they deserve it ! but I wont lie to you every now and then i come across a label i genuinely could make my whole wardrobe just there clothes, their trendy, simple and most of all original and i don't mean this Adidas originals shit i mean properly original, and i just want to keep them to myself so i can look as fresh as possible and no one else will be wearing the same gwarms but....... i have to gives these guys the credit they deserve and the best way for me to do that is to shout about them and this label needs shouting about.

This label is coming out of Scotland and i think they could honestly be massive, they look relatively new but what they lack in exposure they gain in just pure talent, these guys have got probably some of the best clothes in the scene right now and they certainly don't look like there going to stop there. they have really got the T-shirt scene on lock the prints are insane and the branding and fonts are original and simple but may i add fucking ridiculously dope !


This is one of those brands i would love to write about later on in the year to see how they are getting on and where DUTCH clothing is going in the future (Guys if your reading give me a shout would love to set something up to do this), these guys are so exciting i can only seeing this brand getting bigger and bigger this brand 100% gets the #TOOMUCHLTD seal of approval !! everyone get down to the website to get your hands on this gear http://www.dutchclothing.co.uk/

For now stay fresh & Support!

"M" TALKS VINTAGE...

I've always had a massive interest in clothes from the past, been obsessed with anything from the 50s to the 60s and lapped up every minute of the 80s. I think taking piece's from the past, and adding your own twist on things is a great way of making it current and starting a trend. 

So I have decided to write a short piece on one of my favourite places to shop Vintage. It's called Absolute Vintage! (Ironic! I know) It might not look much from the outside, but nevertheless there is something that entices you inside. As you go inside, the store is crammed with all types of vintage, from shoes, bags, jewellery, to menswear and womenswear. This place may look like a jumble sale, but thats all part of it charm. Rummaging through the clothes, I have found some of my favourite pieces in this store. One I have had for the past 2years and still use it most days, a brown satchel style box bag, which I think a male or a female could wear, which is why I love it!!! (So versatile)

My point is make a day trip and get yourself down there, it's just off brick lane, which means there is plenty of other stores and vintage fairs going on to find some essential piece's for your wardrobe….(Well worth the trip)
Which brings me on to my next point wandering down towards brick lane, just coming from  Absolute Vintage….. we see a sign just simply stating vintage! 

Me and my friend wonder inside and they are holding a fair, which is great. I must have been there no more than 40 secs when I spot a white dress, I rush over praying it's what I have actually been looking for, for months…..(I hold my breath ) I pick the white dress up, and YES (finally start breathing again) it's exactly what I have been searching for.  A white tennis dress, with a drop waist, which is beautifully pleated! I immediately brought it, but this man's stall had some great stuff, all in superb quality. I only paid £20 for the dress, which I was so pleased with, it is one of a kind at the end of the day.

 But I would have a look at the website, see where he is going to be next... http://www.pgreen-vintage.co.uk All I know is that #TooMuchltd has found a New Love, and we certainly won't be missing the next…. "M" xoxo

"T" TALKS INDEPENDENTS

Being a massive independent clothing label fan, I thought this would be the best post for me to start with.

Since i got into the wonderful world of independents, I have had the pleasure to see many knew and exciting streetwear brands pop up from nowhere and give you some of the best and original looking gear in the industry.
                                            
                                   
   

Now i know its all opinions but in mine there are a couple of independents that really did make the scene what it is today, the label that i am going to talk about in this post is "Jelly & Cream" a great label which has concentrated all its efforts on headwear they have produced SnapBacks, Beanies and Pom Beanies.

One of the things which has been so impressive about "Jelly & Cream" is how they have changed there style during the time they have been established, the signituare peices that they are known for are the "Cream" SnapBacks and the Beanies which are both great pieces of clothing and as everyone can see by the amount of  people who have bought and supported these two items. Jelly & Cream for a while stuck with this same style and found great success in there SnapBack range by bringing out other styles like "LICK" and the "branded snapback" but then after these releases they expanded there small but clever and original range to make 5-Panel Caps these caps in my opinion rival "Supreme" they are extremely vibrant and clever a must buy for anyone sporting the 5-Panels at the moment.


     Just recently "Jelly & Cream" did a collaboration with the Hackney Skate Club and it is the best thing  to turn up on the Jelly & Cream website, this collaboration is great its got style its perfect for the current street wear scene but very importantly kept the original style of the brand, if you can get your hands on this collaboration gear GET IT! it definitely got the #TOOMUCHLTD seal of approval, and i will buying mine as soon as i get paid, get it before it goes
