We all need a small duffle bag occasionally right? With this new Adidas bag you get to decide if you are the kind of person who likes to be seen from a mile away…or a Ninja. The new classic styled duffle bag is the perfect size for throwing your daily gym gear into. It’s got a shoulder strap and a plethora of pockets for your various nonsense (cash to pay the ransom to that dick who stole your lawn gnome). It comes in black or bright yellow with the trefoil logo on the side so everyone will know exactly what you are dreaming about all day. I’ll let you figure out which color is for Ninjas.

A little saucy and a little sweet, this cute sleeveless a-line dress is going to be a summer favorite. Made of 90% cotton and 10% linen, the fabric is lightweight, lined and machine washable. The high square neckline looks good on all body types, while the eyelet insets at neck and apron front provide a little playfulness with their peek-a-boo quality. Available in true navy (shown below) or off white, the pin tucking detail at the bust is another charming detail that makes this dress stand out. With a pleated skirt that hits at mid-thigh, be prepared to show off some leg.

Designed By Humans is another great t-shirt site that features designs submitted by artists and voted upon by the community. The winners then go into production and you can purchase them. I am a fan of simple designs a lot of the time, especially when it comes to t-shirts, and this lovely live illustration of a twisting tree by oliver really caught my eye. The artwork is printed on a brown ringspun cotton t-shirt, which adds to the warm earthy vibe of the image. Drop by DBH and make an account today, you can earn DBH bucks by referring your friends and get free shirts (free in the sense that you are annoying the piss out of your friends probably)!

The indie designers of Sugarcrane bring you this beautifully detailed stylish flying crane belt buckle and Italian leather belt. Inspired by Korean motifs and history, the unusual name Hwarang refers to a class of ancient elite warriors from the Shilla Dynasty. Antique silver colored, the buckle features a crane in flight with a flower in it’s beak and surrounded by flowing designs, while underneath there are Korean characters which spell out Sugarcrane. Aside from the aesthetic beauty of the image, many will be attracted to the symbolic attributes of the crane - longevity, considered a bird of omen, messengers of wisdom, and an all around auspicious creature. The belt is made of black Italian leather which has been lightly hand-sanded to create a distressed look and feel, and there is a small Sugarcrane logo on the end. Can’t get too much indie style crane!

This eye catching women’s tee features two leopards (or some sorta spotted big cat) facing off across the chest of a basic dark grey t-shirt from RVCA. Mouths agape and sharp incisors prominently displayed, these pretty kitties seem pissed off or perhaps they are in a roaring contest. The RVCA logo is featured front and center between the cats’ open mouths in bright colors, yet the majestic felines manage to steal the show. Printed on a grey 100% cotton tee and available in sizes XS to L.

These fetching cold weather boots actually make me sad that winter is coming to an end. Earth brings you a current lodge style boot with lots of benefits besides furry cuteness. They have a soft thinsulate lining for warmth and negative heel technology that is said to improve bodily alignment through wear. The boots also feature decorative toggle accents and faux fur trim with the all-important side zip entry which actually makes them easy to wear. 4 color choices are available in suede, and 3 in microfiber for the stylish but vegan. The pair shown below are beaver suede, our personal favorite. (heh heh - I said beaver!)

It’s hard to beat the versatility and comfort of a hoodie, and now WeSC brings you a slightly more sophisticated flavor with this button up sweater hoodie. Basic black with ribbed cuffs and hem, this cozy woolen garment is made of 50% kid mohair wool, 30% nylon and 20% acrylic. A pull over style hoodie, the buttons are large and only go about half way down the front. I love having a hood, and this sweater gets extra style points for the addition of pom poms dangling from the hood ties. Super cute! Currently on sale at Karma Loop.

Men’s hats are rapidly coming back in style, and it’s interesting to see the variety of dapper possibilities. It seems if you look at old photos everyone was covering up their domes with derbys, tophats or fedoras. These days most of us don’t look farther than the traditional baseball or “trucker” cap. The time is now for you to give the ball cap a rest and snaz up your topside. We did a little searching to find five pretty cool options.

Fedora

This is a summer classic inspired by the movie Swingers, grab a fruity beverage and hit the hot sands.

Price: $28.00
Quicksilver: Sub Contract Fedora

Panama

If you need a little more coverage than a Fedora, try this classic Panama style hat from Jaxon. This is apparently Michael Jordan’s favorite golf hat for whatever that’s worth.

Price: $56.00
Village Hats: Jaxon Panama

Kangol

Kangol is obviously more well know for their LL Cool J type caps, but here is a pretty slick argyle striped driving cap.

Goorin Monk

We suspect this Swiss looking Goorin hat was named after the great Thelonious, and would probably look good on him. Goorin is a pretty hip hat company specializing in fedoras and military styles.

Price: $56.00
Goorin: Monk Trilby

Stetson Outland

Stetson is probably the most well known western hat maker, and this outback style wool felt hat with it’s leather band is a good example of why. The Outland is proof western wear can be stylish and classic.

I love the idea of arm warmers; another great way to accessorize any outfit and, in chilly weather, they are also utilitarian. These long fingerless gloves are made of super soft fleece in hot pink with a dashing black bio-hazard meets heart graphic. Featuring the all important thumb-hole which will keep the gloves in place, they are 10 inches long and can be worn fully extended or scrunched up. Brought to you by indie designer MT coffinz, they are made of fleece and felt. Thanks to Shana, use the code “BirdFightRocks” to receive 10% off your entire order.
