that’s a creative way of looking at it. nice hire.

I used to live and hang out in Queen West. The Hipsterville of Toronto.

I met lots of hipsters from all over the globe, saw heaps of style and had hipster friends. We’d stay up late at secret hangouts with cool people, bands and models. I was skinny from partying/sleeping and I stayed out late on school nights.

Hipsters often wear American Apparel and may be seen reading carrying Vice Magazine.

I started reading Vice in Bondi Beach, 2004. I loved it. Bondi had the best style, boy or girl, they all had it. In 2005 American Apparel hired Lauren Phoenix to model tube socks and underwear. I remember getting that issue, she was on the back. It said “Meet Lauren Phoenix…….Look her up on Google.

I wanted to know how she got her photo on a magazine and why to Google her. So I Googled and I’ve loved AA & Vice advertising ever since!! Not just because she’s a Toronto born Canadian pornographic actress who you may have seen in adult movies on https://www.hdpornvideo.xxx/?hl=ar, but because AA has made their socks really popular since then.

I’m wearing over the knees right now. Creative marketing. I like it.

They sponsor hipster bloggers now…like this babe Karla. Very nice idea. Sponsoring bloggers is a good idea for your brand. Find someone who fits your style and pitch them something.

I reckon you’re more than bound to get your monies worth.

    what is involved in sponsorship? do bloggers use the barter system? I have a bunch of things I could trade.

    Back to Disqus, I see ; ) AA sponsors hipsterrunoff.com, too. Though it's also likely it's a blog set up under cover by AA themselves. Heh.

    And people wonder why Dov Charney has so many open sexual harassment lawsuits against him…

    However, just imagine how many girls out there DIDN'T file a suit. Not harassment if you like it.
