The FAZE Agenda...Recap

What's up folks?

This week has been crazy for the FAZE boys but staying busy is the key to progression. As mentioned in the previous blog post, we had a few things on the agenda, which included the MAGIC and POOL tradeshows, the El Camino High School Fashion Show, and the Urban Stitch Show. The purpose of today's blog entry is to recap our experience at each of these events.

Las Vegas, MAGIC, POOL, etc. - Well, Vegas is Vegas...does it ever disappoint?!? I believe not. But the purpose of our trip to Vegas this time around was to experience some of the biggest shows in the fashion industry and to party a little bit along the way. These shows consisted of MAGIC, POOL, S.L.A.T.E., Project, etc. The shows were a blast to attend and each one of them offered their own unique appeal. If you've every been to Vegas to any one of these shows, you know they consists of the hottest designs, celebrity appearances, slappin' music, and off-the-wall parties. Some of the folks that were in attendance at this year's shows were Jadakiss, B.G., Laroo, Paul Wall, Khloe Kardashian, the New Boyz, and even 'TV Johnny' made an appearance (the man responsible for hookin' up countless celebrity gold, diamond, and platinum grills). Additionally, there were more than a few brands that had some hot shit for this upcoming season. Stay tuned because the fashion game is gonna hit you at all angles...I promise!!!

The El Camino High School Fashion Show - "FAZE Loves the Kids!!" Especially, if they are involved in something that they are passionate about and it pertains to our industry. The high school kids put on quite a show this past Friday and we were pleased to be a part of their 3rd annual fashion show. There was a warm embrace for FAZE Apparel and not to mention the kids looked damn good in our gear. Big ups to my young El Camino models. Pursue your dreams and don't give up!!! For other schools that would like FAZE to be a part of your events, hit us up and we'll be glad to make that happen.

The Urban Stitch Show - Despite the bad weather the Urban Stitch show had quite a turnout. The attendees were lovin' FAZE and I believe we acquired a few more supporters. A few more folks with that FEARLESS and ZEALOUS mentality...that's what's up!!! Big ups to Big Rich for making an appearance too!!! I'll like to send a special THANK YOU to all those that made it to the show despite the rain...without folks like you we wouldn't exist. That's real talk. For those that couldn't make it, I know you show your support in other ways and we have some more shows on deck for you to attend. Stay tuned.

All in all, this was a highly productive week for FAZE Apparel. We made some key connections at MAGIC, gave back to the kids at El Camino High School, and snagged a few more supporters at Urban Stitch. We plan to make future days, weeks, and months as productive. Stay tuned because your FAZE boys will definitely stay in motion. Lastly, I've compiled a few videos from our past week (as promised). Enjoy and stay FEARLESS and ZEALOUS my people!!!

The FAZE Agenda...

What's up people?

I hope that the start of 2010 has been a prosperous one. As usual, the FAZE boys have been busy at work getting shows lined up, giving back where we can, getting the Spring FAZE line ready...the list goes on and on. We stay in motion because stagnation is a sickness. Shit, you know how we do. Anyway, the purpose of this blog entry is to inform you all about what we have on deck in the coming days and weeks.

First off, FAZE had the pleasure to help out with the artwork and production of t-shirts for an upcoming charity event. The Love Stinks, Cancer Sucks event will be held at Rosewood Bar on 732 Broadway (between Stockton St. & Turk Murphy Ln.) on Feb 12th. This marks the 2nd annual pre-Valentine's Day fundraiser for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. The event runs from 8:00pm to 2:00am, so make sure you're there to cop some shirts for a good cause.

Next on the list, we have a trip to Vegas to check out the MAGIC and POOL trade shows. We won't be vendors at the shows but we'll be given the opportunity to check out the hottest brands in the industry. After all, we're not the only hot brand out there LOL. The trade shows are all going down from the 16th to the 18th of February and this will sure be a Vegas trip to remember. Wait...aren't all Vegas trips one to remember?!? For more info on these shows visit http://www.magiconline.com.

As soon as we touch down from Vegas, we will be heading to El Camino High School in South San Francisco to be a part of a school fashion show. We won't actually be in the fashion show but the kids will be modeling our gear and they seem pretty juiced about that. Man, I wish we had fashion shows when I was in high school but we will be given the opportunity to live the experience through the kids. You know FAZE has love for the kids! The school fashion show will take place on Friday, February 19th at 3:00pm. This show is open to the general public, so swing by El Camino High School in South San Francisco if you have some free time. Peep the two videos that I filmed during yesterday's meeting with the high school fashion models.

Last but definitely not least, FAZE Apparel will be a part of the Urban Stitch fashion show in San Francisco. This show is going down on Sunday, February 21st at 330 Rich and will run from 2:00pm to 7:00pm. The show is also budget friendly with a small admission of $3 with a free gift bag included. This is our first time at the Urban Stitch show, so it should be a blast. Strike through and check us out...you don't have an excuse not to because football season finally is over. I will post the electronic flier to Twitter, Facebook, and Myspace shortly so look out for that.

Try to make it to one or all of these up coming events. We will also have a lot of video and pictures of the events to share with y'all so continually check the blog and Facebook fan page in the coming weeks. Until next time, stay FEARLESS and ZEALOUS my people!!!
