FEBRUARY 12, 2008 THINKIN' SPRING
Yo.
As Chicago endures its third month of snow and ice, the temps stay down and the wind picks up, love for the city starts to fade. Everywhere I turn, another person’s talking travel. People are starting to want out of the city. They make vacation plans; bash the city’s weather, public transportation, and politicians. It’s always the same.
But here at Novem, we’ve got sunshine. We’re thinking spring and summer while it’s snowing, and producing tomorrow’s styles today. Just last week, we staged our spring collection photo shoot with friend and photographer
Jaime Escalante.
Here's a preview.
Stay warm Chicago.

OCTOBER 29, 2007 NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH:
CTA PASSENGER TYPES
Welcome back to another edition of Neighborhood Watch. An ongoing report of observations made during my daily grind in Chicago. Today, we’re talking about the many types of CTA passengers, and their various attributes. Though this is not exactly a scientific or objective means of classification, it’s definitely something that will ring true to those who’ve logged significant people-watching time on the CTA.
The Vet-
This is the everyday public transportation soldier. Rain or shine, this person:
- Waits for the bus or train on a designated bench/shelter.
- Better yet, walks along the bus route, often reaching their destination quicker than the bus does.
- Doesn’t talk to anyone, keeps to themselves
- Will check a CTA employee in a heartbeat
Pays With: Chicago Card or Chicago Card Plus (the VIP pass) or a 30-day CTA pass
On-Board Action: Reads, writes, listens to music, multi-tasks
Sits: Near an exit, or in a single seat, more...

OCTOBER 22, 2007 PORTRAIT OF NOVEM
Just a funny shot of our guy Josh posing in a jacket we attempted to screenprint. And failed at. Miserably. But Josh looks good, no?
Sillyness ensued...

OCTOBER 11, 2007 PEEP THE PAPER!
The ladies at Wolf-bait & B-Girls hooked us up with some publicity in today’s Chicago Tribune. Check out page 4 of the ‘At Play’ section, posted below.
We are more than grateful to our friends in Logan Square; expect them to be featured in our Spots section on the site very soon. Until then, visit their site here and place at 3131 W. Logan Blvd.

Peace.
