Spring is coming and even though we’re still reporting on NY Fashion Week, and discussing what we’ll be wearing this fall, there’s THE HERE AND NOW to think about.
With the warmer weather, comes the need to replenish your tee-shirt collection.
At the top of our list are the tees from Paul Jacober’s “Never Mind the Roses” Collection.


Shortly before NY Fashion Week, we visited with PR Maven, CECE FEINBERG, in her new showroom/office at 336 West 37th Street freshly painted in a terrific shade of cotton candy pink.
We’d seen jpegs of the tees, and wanted to see [and feel] them in person. We were NOT disappointed.

WHAT’S SO GREAT: “[This] is the first REAL fashion-take on what some could consider a souvenir shirt.” says Paul Jacober. His collection plays with the wildly popular British imagery craze in a clever tongue-in –cheek way. Paul’s tees are miles removed from those awful fun- at –the- time souvenir tees that always morph into just plain cheesy when you’re back home. Now, you can have the same fun and look stylish. Thanks, Paul!

POINT OF DISTINCTION:
The graphics include: Union Jacks mixed with different iconic imagery such as deer, roosters, a Grace Jones homage, spilled and broken Toile patterns and fancy chandeliers. Available for men and women.
These Tees= vintage undertone + urban sensibility = one great tee shirt you can wear for day or evening, all for $52.
