Happy Halloween From Block!

10/25/11 4:54 PM

 

Did you ever wonder if it’s good to be good? Just look at Steve Jobs. This electronic genius dropped out of school, got fired from his own company, tripped LSD, and still became the hero of his generation (and of the planet) for creating wired wizardry.

 

And then there’s Amanda Knox. The Seattle native went to Italy to study and be a good girl and she ended up in an Italian prison accused of killing her roommate (we prefer gossip it’s a lot easier to keep under wraps). Now she’s a media darling and from what we hear she is being offered millions of dollars to write a book.

 

Then we got to thinking –is it good to be good or better to be bad?

 

That’s the weird part about sanity in this insane world – sometimes good is bad and bad is a matter of taste. If Charlie Sheen can come off looking like the good guy then good and bad are big parts of the interchangeable weirdness of life.

 

And guess what? Everyone on the planet is in also confused about whether to be good or bad. But it seems being bad will have the edge this Halloween. What will you be this Halloween?

FASHION IS A RIOT

10/18/11 12:20 PM

 

Life is tough, fashion should be easy.

 

Of course if you’re Lady Gaga fashion is always a Riot – it’s also fun – and sometimes outrageous and provocative.

 

But for some retailers fashion is a riot in the real sense – the kind with SWAT Gear and tears.

 

That’s what happened last month with Target customers and Kardashian devotees.

 

They thought they were shopping and BANG the next thing they know there face to face with gas masks and riot gear.

 

But at Block we make shopping easy.


Hard is paying taxes, getting the hot girl, and finding a job that matches your soul.

 

But when buying a hat – the only drama that should accompany it is if you look so good that babes just have the urge to rip your clothes off (a good thing unless she looks like Jack Black, to some still a good thing).


We promise you one thing for sure - if you check out our fall hats (at blockheadwear.com) there will be no tear gas or downed phone lines. But there will be choices and a good selection of hats to help you master your universe. All you have to do is click “Shop” and choose the look and style that defines you.

 

In a world that is sometimes confusing (check out Wall Street) it helps to stay firm in your conviction to look good. And at Block we not only make shopping easy, but we make it easy to look good. And, you can’t ask for more than that, can you?

SOMETHING TO FALL BACK ON

10/6/11 12:26 PM

 

It’s time to say “Goodbye” to sailing, surfing, sexting and the sunsets of summer.

 

No one wants it to end – but like most good things in life there is an expiration date. That’s the downside of being an adult. They take away our toys and make us grow up in September. The Good News is that September leads to another season in the revolving door of life.

 

And often times that door leads to some pretty cool stuff.

 

Block’s new Fall line will spice up your wardrobe – and let you see fall through a kaleidoscope of color, The “Sammy Trilby” has the stability of the present (in wool check) with the colors of the rainbow (in the pleated tie-inspired band). This hat is way too cool to leave in your closet so make sure you take it with you wherever you go.

 

Let’s face it leaving summer behind (oh those behinds) is not easy for most people. But we know that fall will be easier to navigate when you have all the right fashion elements (a cool hat being the most important). So why move quickly into winter when you can hang onto a semblance of summer with Block’s wool check baseball cap with a red or blue knit stripe band.

 

One thing we know for sure –wearing a hat for fall is a no-brainer. It’s something that the weather demands and will make you look great. And that’s why we’re here. To make sure your head is covered with the right stuff – because going outside without a hat is like going outside without pants on – it has the naked factor. And although your birthday suit may be the only one in your closet, it still looks best when kept at home. But a hat, that’s another story – its sole purpose is to keep you company and transform your look from the inside out.

 

This is the start of many blogs to come, join us each week for a dose of what’s happening in the world of fashion and entertainment.
