Anattitude Magazine featuring the NBFG Cookie Crew interview.

Our favourite jewellery guru from Melbourne Hayley Mei has just launched her new line of goodies for presale including the pendant above, and for some reason her cover image (above) just caught my eye. :) Then, when I was perusing Hayleys blog The Mayoress I found this one (below). Haha! Grab that Airs…

One of the best things about NBFG is that we get to pay homage to some all-time female hero’s. First with the battle shirt and then last year we produced this tee of London’s own Cookie Crew – the UK’s most notorious rap duo from the eighties and early nineties. Through this I also got the opportunity to meet up with Remedee aka Debbie Pryce, to chat about the London scene in back in the day and of course get my original school wax signed. The interview appeared on notbadforagirl.com for a short while, but now thanks to Jee-Nice there’s gonna be another chance to read it in the forthcoming edition of Anattitude Magazine. Sweet!

Sometimes you need to put something down in order to remember why you first picked it up. It’s a perspective thing, and it’s easily lost when your head’s down, getting on with what you’ve got to do and keeping everyone happy. So, in the name of sanity (mine to be exact) we decided to have a well-deserved bit of feet up earlier in the year after the Addict launch. It was a good thing to do because it made me realise that there’s no point in rushing about trying to meet your own deadlines if you’re not doing it the way you intended, plus it gave us more time to think about what is next. The knock-on of that though is that there isn’t going to be any Summer line dropping for ‘08, but don’t watch that, it’s only a bad thing if you don’t know what is coming next… So here’s a sneak peak of one Aut/Win design in mock-up stage. Join the mailing list at Not Bad For a Girl if you want to be the first to know when the full line drops.

Without a doubt one of the UK’s finest female mc’s making her way right now is Tor. Spotted here performing at the recent BBC’s Your Game sport and music event. Photos courtesy of the BBC. Check more pix here.

The first co-lab between NBFG and Addict has been released. The co-lab was originally conceived and designed in early 2007, when I was asked to design a bespoke print for the Method Zip Hoodie – one of Addict’s staple pieces. This print was something that I had been previously developing and is a twist on the four playing card suit icons with NBFG monograms.
