We’ve decided that we should put out some predictions of events that will occur in 2009. This way, during the year, we can see how psychic we are or how silly we were.

1. The bow tie will replace the non-bow tie as the dress up a button-up shirt accessory of choice.

2. Sarah Markham of I Didn’t Pack For This says, “Damon Weaver will get his interview with Barack, courtesy of Cut & Sewn’s effort.”

3. Lil Wayne will not have an opportunity to appear on a new single everyday in ‘09.

4. Shallom Johnson of Stylefinds thinks, “I predict that we will get the warmest summer we’ve had in years and I will spend most of it on the beach in a bikini.”

5. Jay Piddy of jaypiddy.com says, “The retro 80’s will quickly fade and an early 90’s Grunge’esque will follow. Soundgarden will reform to capitalize on the craze!”

So many more after the jump. (more…)

Like a holiday sweater, this playlist is awkward even for Christmas.

I took a census at the Central Board of the Cut & Sewn Crew this week to find out what we’re really thankful for:

Francesca: “I am thankful for mixtapes never dying, unlike ska.”

Mikaila: “I am thankful for . . . .  interactive dinosaurs.”

Lee: “I’m thankful for cufflinks and yearbook photos.”

Gray: (Due to a lack of a response) “I’m thankful for loose lips and YOU, the Reader.”

What are you most thankful for?

Let me get a little historical on y’all.

Orange is a power color. It stimulates enthusiasm and creativity. Orange means vitality with endurance.

Yes, this is one of the colors for Halloween, but it also happens to be Cut & Sewn’s color too. Coincidence? Perhaps, or just meant to be…POWERFUL.

Things that suck about Halloween

1. Walking into a party with somebody wearing the same half-assed costume you are.

2. When you feel tricked with a half opened tootsie roll and your buddy gets treated with the king size 3 Musketeer Bar.

3. In my case, getting your wisdom teeth pulled two days before the big spooky fiesta.
