bags for your vividbraille tee

we've checked out some of the spring handbags & picked out a few to pair up with your vividbraille tee's...

..::for the gentlemen::..

this token duffle caught my eye; functional & liking the worn effect


..::for the ladies::..

casual & functional - the portfolio
down for independent leather designer label HAUS leather - sick skills with leather crafting plus finest material used...this is definitely on my "lusting" list

out 'n about - canvas bag
i'm digging the canvas feel & contrasting colors on Skinny Vinny's Koda Grey bag

laid back night out - wristlet
i'm an avid & loyal HOBO fan & have a version of this wristlet myself...the leather only gets better when used & pockets in the inside are a lifesaver when fumbling through your purse at the end of the night ;)
always,
nic

old treasures, new accessories...nouveau motley

I'm the biggest sucker for accessories...especially those that stand out. So when I ran across the jewelry line nouveau motley I was captivated. I loved the line's idea of taking old treasures of era's before & presenting them in a functional & creative light. Blame it on the nostalgic sucker in me, but i've always had a minor obsession with antiques such as these & wondering about the stories behind both the objects & the people who owned them before.
a necklace created by transforming parts from old antique pocket watches circa early 1800s...detail & etchings stand out in the simple & clean presentation.



Here ya go fella's...cufflinks that would make me look twice;)


Nude: Affordable & Risque...genius!

Loved this piece & bonus is it'll go great with any vividbraille shirt...
but especially projections...:

Scott Jacks (Virtually Everywhere)


kick ass vividbraille site -

fresh layout for tunde olaniran’s new site -

bringing access to vividbraille goods to your fingertips -

Scott Jacks has been in the virtual background of Vividbraille since 2003 (the very beginning) props to his invaluable contribution to Vividbraille is long overdue. Scott and I met back when we both worked for AT&T almost 10 years ago. The friendship and working relationship is an odd one at first glance. Jacks (what most of us call him) is as technical as they come able to comprehend things involving numbers, code, computers and anything else seemingly absurd to the average mind. I am the opposite; concerned with the composition, layout and the overall feel of a project. Everything involving Vividbraille online has had Jack's hands and mind all over it, usually taking my visual and functional demands and turning it into a reality. Projects ranging from www.vividbraille.com to complex programs calculating things such as inventory have all been done by Scott. With over 10 years of experience, he’s perfected the skill of translating difficult technical jargon into visually simple & user friendly sites.

It has been exciting getting the opportunity to not only execute Vividbraille projects with him but also receiving jobs by others looking for the same type of aesthetics, branding and execution Vividbraille is known for. All of this with Jacks behind the scenes virtually everywhere!

wearing your vividbraille swag in spring - for the ladies

We've put together a couple of looks for those who want to freshen up their spring look for those laid back days & crazy ass nights. Individuality is key, so if you have a favorite look with your tee, take a pic & shoot it on over to us at sales@vividbraille.com! We'd love to see how you represent Vividbraille on the streets!!
for your daytime spring stroll...

top ~ take your favorite Vividbraille tee (shown here: works of art):
bottom ~ i'm liking the bermuda length rock & republic Celsey style:
shoes ~ can't go wrong with flip flops, but if you want to mix it up a bit, these converse are my pick:
accessory ~ gotta grab the shades! I fell in love with these Ralph Vaessen sunglasses on Limited Hype's site, but I'm left dealing with a broken heart since they're just under $1,500.

for your alluring spring nights...

top ~ the low cut v neck on the Vividbraille seen & felt is perfect for night:
spicing it up ~ layer your tee on top of a cami (la perla shown); the hint of the bright red peaking from the edge of your shirt = hot
bottom ~ David Lerner has added details on his line of leggings (don't want to buy a new pair? grab scissors & shred away!)
shoes ~ Chinese Laundry's "Multiple" shoes have a 5" stiletto heel resting on a 1.5" platform. nuf said.
accessory ~ an oversized watch'll do. current crave? Michael Kors's 2010 collection in gold & white:
see a Vividbraille tee that's your current crave? check out our eStore for availability.

Happy Spring!

Shout out to Corporate America (ignore what Ive said before)

So my room mate and friend Jay to the lindsay, invited me to check out a Bulls game in the At&t suite last night. It was cool, Ive always been curious if Id like watching a game in that type of setting...I do very much. Look forward to a day I can afford a season and spoil Vividbraille clients in it. We shall see...dreams=goals=days=dreams...

Ps. Damn, the Knicks suck..sorry to my New York friends..
