In this current state of quarantine, it’s only natural to miss the events and spaces that drew our communities together. Do you miss the experience of exploring a new art gallery? Or hearing a live DJ? What about meeting emerging and local artists, who each have a unique perspective and product they want to share with you? Look no further than ARTiculate ATL, an urban art social meant to display the work of 20 Atlanta artists.
When fashion brands make headlines, the conversation is usually focused on celebrities, whether in the fashion business or not, and new, exorbitantly priced collections. So much so that the idea of fashion seems completely inaccessible or elitist to a lot of people who are not already invested. However, when a brand finds the right balance between an elite image and affordability, they often become staple brands for the casual fashion enthusiast. Guillermo Andrade seems to have struck this balance with his brand 424 on Fairfax.
Hip-hop since it’s birth was viewed as a counterculture or a subculture. However, within its community, it was perceived as so much more. It was a way in which the youth used multiple platforms to be expressive. Its growth into becoming one of the most influential art forms across the globe has been incredible to watch. Nowadays you have hip-hop influences within nearly every genre of music there is. You also have hip-hop artists across the water having a similar impact both in their home country as well as some success here in the U.S., which isn’t easy to do. London rapper, DC, is steadily growing into the next big thing from the U.K. rap scene.
In our mass-produced, capitalistic society, hand-crafted products can seem like relics from the past. However, for Loewe, a Spanish luxury fashion company, this appreciation, and respect for the history of hand-crafted, unique clothing defines the brand.
Dating back to 1846, this 174-year-old fashion house has stood the test of time. Loewe was created by a group of unnamed artisans from Madrid until German craftsman Enrique Loewe Roessberg joined these craftsmen to develop the fashion house’s name and brand.
The internet is a bizarre place. Once considered by many to be an information superhighway, and a realm of endless possibility, the internet’s good name has been sullied over the years, as the amount of entertainment content has gone up.

However, as the timeless saying goes, there is always treasure to be found in trash, and nothing is a greater testament to that than the band 100 gecs.
