Bienvenue a St Tropez

I feel like everything on HYA has been a bit disjointed for the past month or so, what with the week of downtime, then switching to a new host, so its pretty unfortunate that just as I’m back into the rhythm of blogging I’m going to go on holiday.

As the title suggests I’m heading to the South of France and I’ll be gone until next Saturday and don’t expect to go near a computer (I may well suffer from internet withdrawal), so the next post will be on July 10th, unless I’m really hungover from celebrating England winning the World Cup the day before. The second half of that sentence may well end up looking stupid, lets hope not.

So check the links for other tee and clothes sites, and if you feel like helping to fund my mission to impress French girls by pretending to be astoundingly rich then there’s plenty of affiliate links on the links page too!

My boardwalk babe

650035 oce frt My boardwalk babe

One for the ladies today, from the deliciously classy Anthropologie. Obviously it doesn’t have any of the usual screen printing that I usually wax lyrical about, but there is clearly some nice innovation in the design of this hoodie, so it deserves me saying “hey, look at that, that’s something different”. And it is, unless you count this as being kinda the same.

Its kinda weird for me to talk about girls clothes, but I’ll give it an awkard shot anyway. The ribbon bow is pretty cute, but I;m not too sure about the height of the waist-band, it seems like it would only suit a waif-like female form, though their sizes go up to XL so perhaps not.

I thought I had the key

Glovelock I thought I had the key
Hmmmm, two hot girls in my promo pics for the Monday and Tuesday posts, eh? Looks like I’m really getting desperate for hits! I’m just kidding, I guess clothing companies are just using attractive people to advertise their products, revolutionary…

Oh, and there isn’t a heart theme this week either, I just thought that this hoodie looked really cool, I liked the grouping and placement of the hearts, and the key-hole shapes really topped it off for me, I was almost in emo-ecstasy. I don’t know if there’s anything on the front, but I’d guess not since there isn’t a second pic of the front on the product page.

Do Robots Dream of Electric Love?

Backseat Kiss Clothing‘ may well be as good of a name for a clothing company as ‘Cute Is What We Aim For‘ is for a band, but I’m sure there’s a self-referential meaning behind it which makes my mockery merely mean, so I’ll just get right onto the hood.

So… its a heart, on a robot, placed on a heart, nice and simple with some decent solid lines, though I don’t know if I would personally wear pink on black, I’ve only just become accustomed to wearing the luminous pink ink from the Handsome Sausage.

The hoodie is printed on American Apparel stock and is available for both guys and girls. Sizing is a bit limited though, with S, M & L for the ladies and M + L for the dudes.

The 3 second memory is a myth!

24.06.2006

I don’t want to sound as if it’s a chore for me to do this post, but the clock has just passed 2AM, and I’m real tired, so I’m going to be totally unfair to aTAYLORdseign and not give them a full review in this totally sweet hoodie and copy/paste their own blurb.
Finally, slick elbow [...]

My internet is being very slow and silly today (where’ve all the images on the internet gone?), but I couldn’t bear to think of you all going without advice from your preacher of hoods, so check out my del.icio.us for a load of fresh links that I’ll be using over the next few weeks.

If you hadn’t already guessed, todays hood comes from Germany, and yes, a World Cup related title would have been far more [Hot] Topical.
Eisberg Studios may well pack their store out with lots of brightly coloured and boldly printed designs, but their hoodie is what intrigues me, even though it is a shamelessly self-promoting logo [...]

Honey, tie would dye for you

21.06.2006

I don’t know if I’m the edge of starting a trend here by recommending a tie-dye hoodie, but I think it’s pretty cute, so I will acceptr any tie-dye based mockery with good humour, and remember, tie-dye is fun!
The colour really suits the summer, since I’ve generally put away my black tees and started wearing [...]

The Summer Breeze

If you ‘get’ that title, I love you!
I found out about aujCollections through a post by Josh Spear today, regarding their philanthropic mentoring and support system. Noble project, blah blah blah, what about the hoodie?
I’ll let auj describe it themselves:
Young Love Hoodie
Designed after the young and wealthy romantics. The Young Love Hoodie is meant [...]

Jump! Yeahhhh Jump!

It’s not often that I recommend a sweatshirt, since I usually find prints on sweatshirts a bit more miss than hit, but I like this one a lot. It’s nice to recommend a UK label on a U.K. webstore too.I like the colour palette, even though you might say that picking green for the paratroopers [...]
