New Rebel Chic Bracelets!

2008-12-09T22:52:00.004-05:00

So, I always try to get witty with my product names and colors but when it came to naming my new bracelet that is basically the Aunty Entity style, I realized I was going about it all wrong by naming the earring Aunty Entity. Yes Tina's character in Thudnderdome was my inspiration but the design itself is Rebel Chic. It is very unique and my signature style so I have re-named it appropriately the "Rebel Chic" hoop etc.... Sooooo, all that being said I am proud to introduce the Rebel Chic bracelet!

Also, I'm making the Borderline bracelet in more colors

Check out the online store for more colors in these styles.

Kathryn Amberleigh Fall shoe collection

2008-09-16T18:55:00.004-04:00

Kathryn's fall collection is inspired by Hollywood starlets and 80's fashions. I love, love, love these shoes. Check out the full collection on Kathryn Amberleigh's website.

Luella S/S 2009

2008-09-16T18:42:00.005-04:00

Luella Bartley was one of my favorite designers to pull from at Showroom 7 and I rocked the *ish out of my Luella cherry tote for Target so you can imagine my joy to see her spring 2009 line. The collection is full of color, florals, chanel-like tweeds and pretty frocks; definitely on my list for spring must haves.

Paul Smith Women S/S 2009

2008-09-16T17:44:00.004-04:00

Paul Smith is definitely a go-to designer for men and his women's line is slowly getting the recognition I feel he should get.

Take it or leave it?

2008-09-16T17:21:00.003-04:00

TopShop Unique's spring collection is 80's inspired but it's more like an 80's up-chuck, yaozer! LEAVE IT!

Photoshop 102

2008-09-14T15:37:00.003-04:00

So I've been playing around with Photoshop some more and I redesigned my business cards and changed my header. What do you all think?

Helmut Lang S/S 2009 collection

2008-09-13T09:22:00.003-04:00

Helmut's spring collection has the most adorable jumpsuits and dresses and great leather jacket- I need that!

L'Wren Scott S/S 2009

2008-09-13T09:12:00.004-04:00

Ralph Lauren's S/S 2009 collection

2008-09-13T09:02:00.006-04:00

Out of Africa x Casablanca x Indiana Jones x Ralph= Ralph's spring collection. I love the jeannie pants, jumpsuits and mosquito net strapless dress.

Stephen Burrows S/S 2009

2008-09-13T08:52:00.004-04:00

Burrow's line isn't my style- it's a bit too Fashion Fair for me, but his 2009 spring collection has some cute pieces.

J. Mendel's S/S 2009 collection

2008-09-13T08:37:00.006-04:00

Spring Collection, rather Red carpet collection. Gorgeous gowns perfect for red carpet appearances.

Rebecca Taylor's S/S 2009 collection

2008-09-13T08:20:00.007-04:00

Cute, cute, cute. Rebecca consistently puts out cute frocks for the season. I love the patterns and colors too.

Posen's S/S 2009 collection

2008-09-13T08:05:00.003-04:00

Zac designed a lot of romantic, flowing dresses for spring but lacks in tailoring. A little too fabric heavy; a woman's shape can get lost under all that chiffon. Here's what I liked out of the line.

Anna Sui S/S 2009

2008-09-11T15:12:00.009-04:00

Every season you can count on Anna Sui to bring texture, color and ethnicity to fashion. Spring is no different, she took us south of the border to Mexico with embroideries, peasant tops and matador jackets. In support of businesses in the garment district being forced out of the neighborhood bcos of rising rents, "Save the garment center" t-shirts were given out in the goodie bags.

Fairy God daddy never disappoints!

2008-09-11T14:16:00.012-04:00

Like I stated before, Oscar's my fairy God father of fashion and this collection shows why. His designs are timeless and ageless. He knows how to make a woman look sexy and stylish with class.

Marc by Marc Jacobs S/S 2009

2008-09-11T12:10:00.008-04:00

What more can I say, It's Marc by MJ!

Tory Burch S/S 2009

2008-09-11T11:23:00.004-04:00

Never been a huge fan of Tory Burch but I gotta have that Prince tee!!!!!

Vivi is vivid for S/S '09

2008-09-11T10:37:00.005-04:00

Vivienne Tam's spring collection was full of vivd colors, peony flowers and beautiful frocks. Her tailored silhouettes are an homage to the late great Yves Saint Laurent. Looks like spring '09 is time to get your 50's on.

Ooohh, So Rebel Chic

2008-09-11T08:49:00.005-04:00

If I could collaborate with any designer, first on my list would be Rodarte, aren't they so Rebel Chic?

Rebel Chic is in two.one.five magazine

2008-09-10T19:58:00.005-04:00

Yay! I love to get press (who doesn't) especially when it's a hit in Phila! I've received nothing but love and support from my Rebel Chic ladies in Philly- shout out 2 da Twins and Echo Chic boutique! Jessica of Echo Chic sent me a pic from Two.One.Five magazine's fashion spread from their 3rd issue available now. The magazine is being mailed to me but here's the pic with the model wearing the Lime green hoop.

La Strada comes to Fashion week!

2008-09-09T22:17:00.005-04:00

Betsy Johnson's show was full of lollipop hopes and saccharin dreams. Betsy's spring collection is made for the Japanese Gothic Lolita scene-remember that creepy exhibit Ram, but some looks translate well to women who don't wanna look like oversize children. I love the La Strada circus styling with the bowler hat, short wigs and micro bow ties.

Fairy Godmother does it again

2008-09-09T21:20:00.008-04:00

I like to think of Carolina Herrera and Oscar De La Renta as my fashion fairy godparents. Their designs are exactly how I would dress in an alternate universe where I would be a fabulously rich, globe trotting socialite : ) I love the whole spring collection so if you haven't seen the show yet, check out the Carolina Herrera fashion show or check out some of my favorite looks

Cynthia Steffe S/S 2009

2008-09-09T20:59:00.005-04:00

I love this line, I want everything! That high waisted pleated leather skirt is mines by hook or crook dang it!

Marky Marc

2008-09-09T15:54:00.004-04:00

Style.com sums up Marc Jacobs Spring collection as "Mary Poppins goes to Dubai", I think part of the show is just classic Miss. Hannigan, lol. I love the collection, can't wait to see the Marc by Marc Jacobs : )

Light and fancy free!

2008-09-09T15:23:00.004-04:00

Jill Stuart is my go to girlie designer. Pretty, pretty, frilly, frilly : ) Spring's collection is ballet inspired and is super sweet, I love the gauzy leg warmers.

Proenza Schouler S/S 2009

2008-09-09T14:58:00.004-04:00

I would describe Proenza Schouler's show as Vikki Vale meets Blade Runner. Here are my favs

Vicky does Fashion

2008-09-09T13:29:00.005-04:00

Yesterday was Victoria Beckham's debut of her line of frocks. Very Posh Spice, lol. The whole collection is the exact same silhouette! Ba, ba, ba, boring, lol.

Truth or Hype?

2008-09-09T12:58:00.003-04:00

William Rast is Justin Timberlake and Trace Ayala's clothing line which debuted yesterday. I saw the show on Full Frontal Fashion on NYC. gov tv and was disappointed. It was wack, the collection was corny, esp. the menswear; the denim was wack and the fabrics look cheap. The outerwear was the only interesting thing, here are a few pics, but please check out the show and judge for yourself.

Hervé Léger S/S 2009

2008-09-09T12:36:00.006-04:00

Known for the bandage dress, Hervé Léger designed by Max Azria, keeps the sexy going with this skin tight collection of dresses and sexy bathing suits.

Shanghai 80's style

2008-09-09T08:46:00.006-04:00

Tibi took us back to the 80's via China with it's spring collection. The collection reminds me of Iona, Molly Ringwald's boss in Pretty in Pink- "if you leave, i won't cry, i won't waste a single tear" shout out to my ESL homies at IS 118, especially to Lee for making a tape of OMD's album :-D

Y-3 S/S 2009

2008-09-09T08:04:00.003-04:00

Here are my favorite pics from Y-3. I want the sunglasses tank! super cute!

Miss Sixty S/S 2009

2008-09-09T07:47:00.006-04:00

Miss Sixty keeps to their hippie chick look with spring's 70's inspired looks from jeannie pants, halter tops and JUMPSUUUIIIITTTTSSS!(said in my Oprah voice, lol)

Ooooo, Diane

2008-09-09T03:05:00.005-04:00

DVF's spring collection is all about the rock diva and it is fabulous! I love that she styled the show with headbands bcos that is definitely apart of Rebel Chic's spring collection : ) I made one for Loveday for the fall. Pics will go up soon so stay tuned
Back to the fashions.... Oooooo Diane! Love the colors, prints and the jumpsuit!

Tracy Reese S/S 2009

2008-09-07T22:29:00.003-04:00

I always love the way Tracy designs frocks so of course this spring is no surprise. Here are a few red carpet looks, or cocktail dresses depending on your social calendar; personally I'm waiting to see the equally gorgeous, more affordable Plenty by Tracy Reese spring collection, lol.

DKNY S/S 2009

2008-09-07T22:25:00.003-04:00

Cute shapes and patterns in DKNY's spring collection

Boy by Band of Outsiders

2008-09-07T21:50:00.005-04:00

Instead of a traditional fashion show, Boy showed a video installation of their s/s '09 look book featuring Kristen Durst at their show. Overall, the line is a bit too "Indian Summer" for me but the tailored pieces and boyish style is what makes the line noteworthy.

Adam S/S 2009

2008-09-07T21:35:00.003-04:00

Okay, a sista's gotta hit the gym because I will definitely rock these looks come spring, sigh, I need to get bi-coastal soon bcos I sooo prefer rocking warm weather clothing, sigh.

Everybody Wang Chung!

2008-09-07T21:16:00.008-04:00

Okay, I know fashion week has only just begun but by far Alexander Wang's line is my favorite! I love his silhouettes and colors for spring. He always has simple pieces that make a statement without being overt. I want them allllllllllll!!!! lol, well, I may not be able to pull off all the looks but I want that tri-color tube dress and the blk knit tank! Grace, I need to put in an order :-D

Abaeté S/S 2009

2008-09-07T20:22:00.008-04:00

Frocks, Frocks, Frocks! Cute, flirty dresses from Abaeté in perfect summer hues (still keeping with the muted color tones) Lovin' the periwinkle!

Nicole Miller S/S 2009

2008-09-07T00:14:00.007-04:00

I love, love, love Nicole Miller's spring/summer collection. She offers lots of colors, though muted, which helps these fabulous prints blossom. I love the spring fedoras and the Annie Hall look of the line. Check out Nicole Miller's full collection.

Rachel Comey S/S 2009

2008-09-07T00:07:00.004-04:00

I'm loving Rachel's use of vintage patterns in her spring collection. and that jumpsuit again : )

Shipely & Halmos S/S 2009

2008-09-06T23:56:00.003-04:00

Love, love, loving these looks!

Jason Wu S/S 2009

2008-09-06T23:50:00.002-04:00

Yay, some color! His collection is cute and flirty light knits and soft fabrics, a burst of spring, Super cute.

Rachel Roy s/s 2009

2008-09-06T23:42:00.002-04:00

I can't say I love her line but here are a few pieces I likey.... and there goes that jumpsuit again, even though it's a bit too Rachel Zoe for me,
Enjoy!

BCBG S/S 2009

2008-09-06T23:31:00.004-04:00

So far muted tones reign supreme. Shades of grey, browns, cremes and black are dominant but splashes of corals and jewel tones make there way into the collections. Loving the jumpsuits! Long pants or shorts, I'm diggin' them. I rock my favorite turquoise on from LoveDay 31 but I will definitely have to add more into the wardrobe come spring. And I love the pockets on the dresses, what more could a girl ask for!

Blogging again

2008-08-14T02:44:00.002-04:00

I've been working my little fingers off coming up with new design ideas and they are almost ready for debut. In the meantime I plan to blog about all things related to Rebel Chic, the creative process and all things yummy....Jes yummy!

About us

2007-11-14T19:33:00.010-05:00

What is Rebel Chic?

Rebel Chic is a collection of handcrafted leather earrings, bracelets and necklaces. Our styles are made from reclaimed leather in a multitude of colors relevant to the season’s trends.

Our inspiration is drawn from women who have influenced music, fashion, art and have promoted social change. We like to think of our client as a trendsetting stylista who isn't afraid to set herself apart from the crowd. The Rebel Chic girl doesn't follow the path of conventional trends, she creates her own. Rebel Chic takes that same attitude when designing and creates Chic Jewelry with a Rebel Yell.

Who is Rebel Chic?

Rebel Chic's designer, Tisha Brown, has worked as a fashion stylist for over 12 years in the entertainment industry. She has designed clothing, costumes and accessories for music videos, commercials and ad campaigns. Tisha has used her innovation and style in many different arenas but her passion for jewelry design didn’t come about until October of 2007.

While handcrafting holiday gifts for friends, Tisha decided to make a pair of earrings from a leather skirt. She quickly recognized she could fill a void in the jewelry market with her designs. This epiphany led to a mission to create fun, chic jewelry constructed from reclaimed leather. Her understanding of the fashionista's appetite for being a taste maker is what drives her commitment to offer exceptional jewelry. Rebel Chic came to fruition in November 2007 and is sold online and in select boutiques in the New York tri-state area.
