Dekka Showroom Opens



Sometimes showing unique style is like swimming upstream against a current of popped collars.

It isn’t easy to scout uncommon pieces that actually look good.

But just when it seems simpler to succumb to mass-produced crap, salvation has arrived with Dekka, a new showroom dedicated to local designers. Tucked into the second floor of a row house, the two-room shop has clothing, jewelry, cosmetics, and art.

Items range from Yosoy’s Miami-inspired dresses to Xzuberance’s polo-packed urban wear (in additional designs by National Society of Soul, Biribelle, lilylilyshop.com, and GOOD GIRLS). Also on hand: jewelry made from Peruvian silver, handbags, mineral makeup, paintings, and music. If it’s an art form worth showing, it’s here.

Proving that it’s always darkest before the spawn.


Dekka, 1338 U Street NW, between 13th and 14th Streets, second floor
(202-986-1370 or dekkafam.com).

BA-RACK THE VOTE: 01.29.08 TILLMAN'S NY

o1.29.2008

BA-RACK THE VOTE Networking Event: National Society of Soul was in attendance at NY's own Tillman's resturante and lounge, hosted by Grammy Award Winning Producer Bryan Michael Cox. Anything that has the word networking in the title is meant for NSS/Ladybug to be present. The party was a major success, lots of folks showed up for the cause, and the music was off the chain. The DJ was spinning some of my favorite joints by Homeschool Records recording artist ESTELLE. . . Tillman's was packed to its physical capacity and the room was full of fabulous folks with huge SMILES. Big ups to Brandon Broussard and sis Lorielle Broussard for creating a incredible political buzz in support of Sen. Barack Obama. To Bryan Michael Cox, for all who don't know him I am here to let you all know "he is DOPE!!!" He played the noteworthy host making his way around the room greeting all in attendance from locals to out-of-town guests.

Ms. Piper Carter (www.pipercarter.com), photographer from the hit reality tv show "THE SHOT", ya know I had to show some HU love "HAPPY BIRTHDAY LADY". . . And, let's not forget the unforgettable introduction to, in my opinion, one of the DOPEST photographers to hit the scene. . .my dude "DUTCH" (www.dutchlabusa.com). All-in-all it was an incredible night. . .next time you visit NY be sure to drop by Tillman's for guaranteed DOPE music, people, drinks, and more. . .
