Kana Beach

Kana Beach, a lifestyle surf brand, was founded in France in 1986 and is now beginning to make their mark in the U.S. 

This creative women's and men's clothing line has made their mark in France as one of the bigger brands. They are working hard to make their line colorful original. 

They currently have three different clothing lines that are complemented by bags and accessories. 

Their first line is Circus. This line is for everyday wear made with easy-to-wear materials. It emphasizes the urban creative style. 

Biologik is their environmentally friendly line. The clothing in this line is at least 55 percent hemp mixed with cotton. This line is what they are known for. 

Elegant is their more high-end line. It is made for that night out on the town. This line also emphasizes being the girl that everyone looks at in the room.

They are very new to the U.S., and are working on getting everything in order. You can find their line at Macy's and Nordstorm. They are working on the U.S. website, so you can probably see it in a couple of months. The France website shows products sold in both countries.

Alexander McQueen for Target

Target's most recent addition to their line of featured designers is mastermind Alexander McQeen.

Ranging from dresses, t-shirts, bottoms, and complete outfits, Mcqueen has introduced rocker flair to the masses. Considering the past designers that have hit the floor at Target, I believe this is quite an improvement.

But don’t have this confused with their famous Go International line. This is their new Designer Collaborations. The plan is to have a program were high end designers make collections at Target prices.

Champion Sweatshirts

With the weather constantly changing on a daily basis, it's nice to have something that is not too heavy and not too light. With that in mind, having a stylish sweatshirt might be a good option.

Champion Sportswear has got it covered. They recently held a competition called the Champion Hoodie Remix where people designed and submitted their own styles, which are currently being judged. But you are still more than welcome to design your own for fun.

Tomorrow the quarter finalists are going to be announced so feel free to check it out.

TOMS and Element Skateboards

In my quest to find some sort of transportation to get around the CSUF campus next semester, my friend introduced me to a skateboard called the One for One cruiser.

This skateboard is a collaboration between TOMS shoes and Element Skateboards. For every skateboard that is purchased another is donated to a child in South Africa.

I think it's a great purchase to get around CSUF, and to help out a child in need.

As well as the skateboard collaboration, the two companies have designed some limited edition shoes. They have a women's and a men's line.

You can find more information about the cause here. And you can purchase your board or shoes here.
