ACCESSORIZING is one of the
simplest and easiest ways to make a fashion statement. Huge
necklaces, bright and striking scarves, colorful headbands,
glittering belts or big-bangles as bracelets—your accessories can
definitely make you stand out in the crowd.
As for the new brand David &
Goliath, thoughts and expressions are the best forms of accessory.
Whether you are a hopeless romantic, guy hater, boy lover, drama
queen, disco king, coffee drinker, punk fanatic or shopaholic, you
can express your personality and individuality without having to
tell the world who you are—just let a T-shirt do the talking.
This distinctive line was
established by Todd Golman, whose motivation was to make people
laugh and happy by combining his sense of humor with his artistic
savvy while studying at the University of Florida. Named after his
dad and his dog, Goldman was able to create a 30-page catalogue of
his one-liner designs that marked the beginning of his own company
even with no formal art training at all.
David & Goliath recently
unveiled the Speak Your Mind series with customized T-shirts
conveying personal jokes, statements and opinions of celebrities,
political figures, artists, musicians, filmmakers and other
interesting personalities. To name a few, noted broadcast journalist
Cheche Lazaro affirmed her journalistic ethic with, “I support the
fight against envelopmental and sensational journalism” while
Senator Dick Gordon campaigned for nationalism by proclaiming,
“What this country needs is not just a change of men but a change
IN men.”
Author Jessica Zafra quoted,
“Sometimes people are exactly as they seem; shallow and moronic”
and host Patty Laurel showed her funny side with “Doncha wish your
gerbil was hot like me?” An invitation “Eat Peace” was uttered
from vegan and yoga instructor Corey Wills.
Not just for adults and teens,
the unique clothing line has also cool stuffs for kids, toddlers and
even babies. They too can express themselves with colorful shirts
with various statements as design. Lip-gloss, notebooks, pens, bags,
socks, bibs are also being sold at the store.
Regardless of age, gender,
status, personality, taste and state of mind, David & Goliath
encourages you to express yourself and speak your mind.
