Johnny Cupcakes Nickelodeon Shirts

If you haven't heard of Johnny Cupcakes then you've been living under a rock! Seriously, this company sells out of their new releases faster then you can eat a cupcake. When I found out about the brand's collaboration with Nickelodeon I literally set three alarms to remind me of the impeding release. Constantly refreshing the webpage on September 24th, I was psyched to snag one of each of their three limited edition Nickelodeon designs for myself. The shirts arrived in a well-themed monotone box featuring checkerboards, the signature cupcake and skull logo, and a cupcake van.

Limited Edition Evil Bear Pin by Evilos

Limited edition, only 100 of these pins exist in the world. Both the back of the packaging and the back of the pin are hand numbered 64 out of 100. The back of the pin is also impressively hand signed by Evilos! Paying tribute to the artist's well-known evil Winnie the Pooh Vinylmation, this pin comes in a clear push seal bag attached to a card. The glittery bear is certainly angry over something with his furrowed brow and less than pleased eyes. Maybe someone ate all his honey?

FEIT's Stitchdown Blue Shoes

If actual gold had arrived today I wouldn't have been any more blown away after receiving a pair of FEIT Stitchdown Shoes in the mail to review. As with anything truly extraordinary it starts with the packaging. Arriving in a simplistic classy brown drawer shoe box with the words FEIT sprawled across the side, from the initial glance it was love at first sight. These handmade kicks are lightweight, stylish, and down right sleek. The added detail of the tongue of the shoe being attached via a separated cotton waxed shoe lace creates a distinguished appearance.

Phosphor™ Appear Black Crystal with IPB Case and Black Leather Strap

Watches are meant to be fashionable, however Phosphor™ has clearly re-invented the term with their new Appear line. After all, this fashion timepiece utilizes revolving Swarovski™ crystals to display the time. That's right, Swarovski™ crystals! The straps are available in a glossy and matte finish and in a wide range of colors including red, white, pink, and black. When I'm at various events I appreciate the off mode option that instantly turns the watch into a non-distracting blank canvas of classy crystals.

Philip Lumbang's Awesome Academy Tees

How many shirts hanging in your closet were made with the intention to spread happiness? How many were even created with any specific purpose at all? Rooted in Sacremento, California HUG LIFE's optical illusion shirt featured above is titled, "Beast Within." A personal favorite, I love how the Watsky bear character is morphed into a monster. The simplistic red and blue color scheme and billboard styled lettering makes this a shirt I now wear every week. Created by the brilliant mind of Philip Lumbang III, from street murals to prints to clothing, the word inspiring doesn't do this guy justice.

Rockport Men's World Tour Calaska Casual Walking Loafer

Purchased in a dark brown tumbled leather I appreciate that shoes only weighs 14 ounces. Filled with a nice cushioning I'm better able to keep up walking miles in amusement parks this summer. I mean flip flops are enjoyable but aren't the most supportive! The outsole of the shoe is made of rubber which means they will last longer while offering non-skid traction at the same time. Plus, how often do the shoes on your feet win awards? The Calaska has received the American Podiatric Medical Association Seal of Acceptance for promoting foot health.

RAGGEDedge Gear's Kevlar Aramid Megafold Bifold ID Wallet

Tired of seeing the same old wallets and phone cases everywhere? The effort to find accessories for day to day life that function on a high level while also fitting your personality are few and far between. The time to find such items is also very limited with all of life's obligations. After today's review you won't have to settle for another mundane case or duffle bag again. In fact, have you ever purchased a wallet that came with a disclaimer like this: "Warning: will cause jealousy. Ownership entitles you to bragging rights."

Organic Cotton Halloween Mickey Mouse Shirt

According to the label the cotton is "grown by farmers using earth-friendly methods that preserve our planet's natural resources." Purchasing products made with integrity is something I am trying to do more of as an educated consumer. Even more unique, the shirt itself contains a tracking number which allows you to find out how it was made by going to Disney's Track My T. Upon visiting the site, you can simply put in your shirt's tracking number and follow along to see all the places your item of clothing visited while it was being made. I could even download the farm's organic certificate and see various images in the gallery.
