Modcloth

September 20, 2009 – 10:54 am

Modcloth started with a girl collecting loads of vintage clothes. She loved to go to thrift stores and bought every item she liked, even when it didn’t fit her. She would give it to a friend or re-use parts, like buttons. You can guess what an amount of clothes she must have collected over those [...]

Beau Beau Marché Brussels

September 15, 2009 – 11:52 pm

Apart from a good alliteration, the Beau Beau Market in Brussels is also a very nice event, taking this place this very weekend (19th and 20th of September).
Back in the days when we just started Neon, I wrote a post about a similar event in Ghent (read it here – oh what an amateur blogger [...]

Crabwolf!

September 10, 2009 – 10:26 pm

This is long overdue. Found an email in our inbox from someone representing Crabwolf, an art collective of up and coming illustrators (based in Bournemouth) beginning of July. It is now the beginning of September. Sometimes things get a bit procrastinated at the Neon office (no, we don’t actually have an office. Would be nice [...]

Recommended on Monday: Use Your Fucking Headphones

September 8, 2009 – 1:09 am

Let’s say we move away from record labels, let’s move away from the NME and yes, let us even leave London aside. If you ask me what’s left, then I’ll ask you where I shall start with pointing out all the fresh new talents that are waiting to steal the hearts of those who care [...]

Style award no.5

September 6, 2009 – 1:39 pm

… goes to FLORENCE Welch, from Florence & The Machine.
First of all, she is an amazing performer. Her voice blows everyone away. When I first saw her (as the support act for MGMT) I was truly amazed and knew she would get huge. Well, here we are today and she’s getting all the attention she [...]

Fall at Le Botanique

September 3, 2009 – 11:56 pm

I admit, there has been shameless promotion for the Botanique on this blog since the beginning. It is the genuine love for this venue that makes us do these things, we are no promotion girls (this was once asked by a stranger on the train when we enthusiastically told him about it – he was [...]
