Jo Tattoo!

Hello all!

This post is long long long overdue! (by about 6 months.. oops). Anyways, back when John Reardon and Dennis McNett showed with us, John brought his tattoo equipment.. you know what that means.. Kelly and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to get tattooed! After mulling over a few ideas, we decided to go for it and get Jolene (our Young Blood shop cat) on us! It was such a treat getting tattooed by John- hope he enjoyed all the southern hospitality Atlanta has to offer and will return soon!

Check it out!

and yep, she's a tripod! You wouldn't believe how many times I get asked if John forgot to put on a leg.. ha!

Looks just like her, huh?


Annnnd, speaking of Reardon- look at his new studio in Brooklyn!

Job well done, man!

Til next time.

New New for You

Some days, I am overcome with love for my city. True, we don't have good public transit, it's corporate as hell, blah blah blah. But there is no where on the map with the heart, soul and flavor of Atlanta and I love it here!


After years of courting, we *think* Atlanta's Esperanza will finally be repped at YB! We're taking it slow for now, starting with this freshness, the ATL Hold It Down foam hands.















The original
double finger ring by Stars For Sydell is back!



The ring shown is the oxidized finish, but this ring is available in a bright brushed finish as well.



Beautiful, creative necklaces and earrings, made from fabric, by Sol de Sur.

































We have all kinda up-and-coming designer goodness in store for y'all this Fall - you just wait. Meanwhile, new items are coming in every day!

xo,
Maggie

Math sucks.

ok sorry having one of those days, weeks... where I have been on quick books non-stop and my head is hurting. But YB has some math love...

Business Mathematics recycled book blank journal
ps: By the way all you math nerds out there or just those who know simple math and who's brains aren't melted. If I know that $15 is 40% of original price, then what is the original price? I mean I don't care what the answer is I just want to know how you figured it out.

New Duds

Ciao,

On this Friday I'd like to introduce you to a new designer we're carrying: New Duds! As the Fall season's coming up, and it'll start to cool down (although not consistently cool till January, knowing Atlanta's schizophrenic weather) we've got some in-season shirts and scarves to keep you comfy and well-dressed. Check out some of the designs we've just put in the shop!


Excellent policy.

This tee for the ladies is soft and versatile.

We have a couple other scarf designs as well; I love how long they are!

Also: reminder! Tomorrow evening's the night of our "So Fine Equine" silent auction, benefitting retired horses through the Horse Rescue, Relief and Retirement Fund (HRRRAF). Stop by for the auction between 7 and 10!


Southern Star Tattoo!

Hello everyone!

Thought I'd do a little shoutout post to our friends over at Southern Star Tattoo! Formally the artists of Liberty Tattoo, they just opened up about a month ago and are definitely pumping out some amazing tattoos already! Not to mention their shop may or may not be the most beautifully decorated one that I've ever laid my eyes on!
