666 Views the Clothing of the Beast

Ok for our 666th view, we’d thought we’d share our favorite Satanistic references, with out stating the obvious: Iron Maiden’s “Number of the Beast. Who doesn’t like Eddie and the boys? We’re gonna rock with some 60’s psych though, and bust out some Aphrodite’s Child, aka Vangelis, Demis Roussos, and Costas Ferris. They were on the Vertigo Record label, who put out some decent music (we do also reccomend the Andy Votel Vertigo Remix record, it’s unbelievable). At any rate, as a tribute to the Number of the Beast, here’s a cool hoody we offer:

Drifter Pompadour Hoody

Oh Yeah….and enjoy this:

and this the Iron Maidens:

Satan Bite the Dust!!!

um..ok that last one was a joke.

New treats and our mutual “dislike” for Paris Hilton

Well, well, well. The little Princess known as Paris thought she pulled a fast one on the judge and the public. But guess what, you’re not exempt because of your finiancial status you baby. You have to serve time like the public (well at least be in jail anyway). We all call bullshit on her little ploy. It just seems that if you’re famous for doing nothing other than being naked on personal video and think your shit doesn’t stink, you can not go to jail or pay for what you’ve done because you’re Paris. We all hate her, and her porno(s) sucks too. What else do you expect from soem spoiled rotten kid who has nothing better to do with her time. I mean if she had no money and had to do a porno, maybe we’d have more respect for her. At the moment, we’re not sure who we hate more, her or the (c)rapper Akon. Seriously, who throws a fan off the stage? I mean for Christ’s sake, you’re not Axl rose. At least he hits with a mike stand and punches Tommy Hilfiger. We digress, and now we’ve got some treats in StyleRocket this fine Monday.

The treats we’re talking about aren’t the unpleasant treats Pauly Shore is getting into in this photo, but some new products we got in. If you’ve been reading, and we know you have, we talked a bunch about Ed Hardy Clothing. They’re continuing to put out some great designs and today is no different. Check out this new shirt we just got in:

Ed Hardy Tiger Multi Print Shirt with felt applique

It’s like a previous design they put out, but this time has some felt applique on it. Definitely cool. Another brand we’re really digging is Monarchy. This brand goes out the door as quick as it comes in. Check out this new style:

Monarchy Men’s Skull Smoke Short Sleeve T-Shirt

Well, we’re hoping you guys had a great weekend and we’ll hit you up again midweek with some rants and of course Style Rocket Goodies. We’ve been bumping this in the office too; shrimp and white wine y’all.

The Champagne of Colas & Ed Hardy Clothing & Paris Hilton

Good Tuesday afternoon to the Style Rocket family. It’s sunny and hot here in lovely Asbury Park, NJ (the only ghetto resort on the whole East Coast and we’re proud of it!). Since it’s getting hot as balls out, we’re always into trying something new. We’re cranking up Seals and Croft’s “Summer Breeze”, and then a Main Ingredient version from a Paul Nice Mix Tape. ( Yo Paul!) We’re also shocking each other with an electric fly swatter. Our web guys decided the office needed to try some new beverages out, so they brought us all back a treat. They brought back Tropicali Soda, the Sparkling Cola Champagne Soda.
Let’s break this down. First of all, it smells like bubble gum, and not the fun Double Bubble or Bazooka kind. It smells like chemicals from a nuclear reactor. I wouldn’t be surprised if it can take off paint and burns your skin if you get it on you. Immediately after drinking this, a coworker rushed into the bathroom screaming something about “Round two, and not the good second round!” I myself got sick to my stomach after only a small shot. No wonder these poor kids have rotten teeth. I felt my own teeth start to try and jump out of my mouth after sipping this sizzurp. Where is the champagne? I mean really folks, you wouldn’t mix this with orange juice and call it a mimosa would you? In a five star rating, with five being the highest, we here at the Rocket give this champipple of colas, a mere 2 stars. We had such high hopes for this deliciosa soda.

So let’s get the taste of licking stamps for half a day out of our mouthes and get into some new clothing from Ed Hardy Clothing . Ed Hardy continues to be one of our top sellers. Some people may call it selling out, but you can’t front on the Godfather of Modern Tattooing. Since we aren’t frontin, here’s four new designs from Ed Hardy:

Ed Hardy Skeleton Key Tee – Beige
Ed Hardy Skeleton Key Tee – Burgandy
Ed Hardy Skeleton Key Tee – Navy
Ed Hardy Skeleton Key Tee – Black

Oh yeah, one more thing, here’s what that spoiled little brat Paris Hilton will look like when she comes out of jail: She’s such a little princess that we hope she comes out with a tear drop tattoo. No more hair weaves, make up, or video tapes, the poor baby. We all feel sooooooosorry for her.

We’ll be back again this week with some new items for you from English Laundry . It’s what we do, we bring you the best new clothing styles from the hottest established brands as well as the best new brands. Check out another clothing company we dig: Hause of Howe Clothing . Later dudes.

New Monarchy and Benny & the Jets!

Leave it to the Biz to give us this classic version of “Benny and the Jets” that we’ve been rocking in the office. The Diabolical can not hit the high notes, but he kills it. This cover version of Elton is so catchy we can not stop listening to it. We love the Biz, and we love Monarchy Clothing. Out of all of the brands we have carried, this brand has done the best for us. From shorts to thermals to t-shirts, this innovative trendsetter has been improving people’s fashion sense for a few years. They’re sort of like the Cialis of the Style Rocket stable. They’ve come back with a vengence this Spring season with a great variety of new designs that are fresh as hell.

We’re also digging of course the Ed Hardy Hoodies . These hoodies have it all: screen printed traditional tattoo designs, embroidered tattoo designs, and the Ed Hardy quality we’ve all grown to love. Ed Hardy has been on the scene for a while, but recently got some good press when Snoop Dogg got arrested at the airport for toting a gun (and I think he might have had some weed too) while wearing an Ed Hardy dress, I mean shirt. It seems like everyone is wearing it these days, even Larry King. I think that might be a stretch (hello Ed Hardy, you’re on the air….), because that old coot is probably sporting Depends behind that desk and a pair of Montgomery Ward penny loafers. At least that’s what Perez Hilton is saying, when he’s not getting sued for what ever the hell he talks about. I wanted to jump back into some music, as we’re listening to a lot of different things at the Rocket. We’re huge music fans and have been digging these artists and songs of late, in no particular.

King Coleman – The Boo Boo Song
Gary Wright – Dream Weaver…seriously
Amy Winehouse – Back to Black
Big Daddy Kane – Raw
Slayer – Angel of Death
Zombie Stompers – Demo
Fatback Band – Goin to See My Baby
Funkadelic – Maggot Brain
Big John Patton – Blue John
King Tubby Meets The Rockers Uptown

Ok kids, that’s all for today. We’ll be back tomorrow with some goodness.

English Laundry Button Ups and Amy Winehouse in Rehab

We’ve been getting a lot of inquiries about a brand we’ve carried since their start: English Laundry. They want to know what’s up with the brand, and why everything they put out keeps selling out, or is hard to get. What’s the answer? I don’t know what the answer is, however I do know we have these new English Laundry styles up for grabs:

English Laundry Men’s Tatton Park L/S Button Up Shirt – Brown Stripe
English Laundry Men’s Tatton Park L/S Button Up Shirt – Blue Stripe
English Laundry Men’s Warrington L/S Button Up Shirt – Black Stripe
English Laundry Men’s Rudyard L/S Button Up Shirt – Brown Stripe
English Laundry Men’s Brampton L/S Button Up Shirt – Blue Stripe
English Laundry Men’s Solitude L/S Button Up Shirt – White
English Laundry Men’s Limited L/S Button Up Shirt – Black

We’ve been bumping the Amy Winehouse “Rehab” CD a bunch here at the office. It’s not too bad. The remixes for the record are not too shabby either: “You Know I’m No Good” feat. Ghostface Killer“, and “Rehab” feat. Pharoe Monch. Her standard jazz stuff is actually quite good, and the backing band when she plays live, the Dap Kings seriously kill it as a new funk band. The matter at hand here is her appearance. WTF people? She used to be kind of good looking, I mean one can get around the jailhouse tattoos after a few drinks, but who is she hanging out with, Nicole Ritchie? The girl has been hitting the pipe too, by the looks of it. She used to be a bit on the bubbly side, ok rubanesque, ok cherub like, but, now it looks more like she’s doing some serious drugs. We all know she can’t handle her liquor (throwing up while performing live), and her drunken performance of “Beat It’ on English television, does she really need to go to rehab? Well, you be the judge. We say yes, yes, yes.

Friday’s rule, here’s the deal for the weekend

We’ve always got something going here around the StyleRocket offices, and today is no different. Besides the cool new products we just got in stock, we’ve handing out some other tid bits and facts for you today. Thanks to our web/graphics guru Eric, we’ve learned all about worldwide diseases from “The Hypochondriac’s Pocket Guide to Horrible Diseases You Already Have” by Dennis Diclaudio. It’s got everything from Cat Scratch Fever to Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis to Scleroderma (and not the TV version from Grey’s Anatomy either) to our favorite: Candiru Infestation. Let’s say you’re swimming in the Amazon and you have to pee. Well mister, hold that pee in, because a parasite named Mr. Candiru, or the vampire fish, swims up your urethra and lodges itself in your urinary tract. Even if you manage to get the little sucker by the tail and try to pull it out, the little guy won’t come out, due to the backward pointing BARBS in his gills that are stuck in your urinary tract. Then it proceeds to suck the blood out of you, because, well, it’s the friggin Amazon and he’s hungry. The more you pull, the easier it is for him to eat. There are a few remedies for this quandry, but honestly, they do not sound like fun: Surgical removement of the parasite from the bladder, death from blood loss and or shock, or some crazy Amazonian tea made by the locals which causes the parasite to dissolve. Yeah, we’re counting on that one to work. Actualy we’re not, but I’m sure none of us will be in America de Sur anytime soon thank you very much.

Here’s the new items we got in today from our friends at merc of London

merc Men’s Steel Short Sleeve Button Up Shirt
merc Men’s Aaron Short Sleeve Button Up Shirt
merc Men’s Lawson Short Sleeve Button Up Shirt
