Big Poppers
Hello Friends!!
I am pleased to say that I am writing to you from the Boldfacers Magazine Street Noir Pop Up Shops in Channel Street Center in Boston!! We have just set up our booth for the first time and we are so proud!! We will post pics very soon! Brian in his infinite madn…I mean wisdom hauled a chain-link fence to the venue for this and we were up until 2am creating our backdrop out of teeny-tiny iridescent smiley face stickers…sounds like an aneurism waiting to happen I know…you can’t imagine the dreams that I has last night!!!
It’s been a while since we last shared our happenings with you and BOY is there a LOT to tell!! We have landed 2 more large accounts that have placed orders with us and so we are in the midst of getting those out the door…look for us VERY soon in a certain fab SoHo, NYC boutique
We have our soldier on the ground now too…of course I mean the ever lovely and talented Miss Stella B, and so we are inexpressibly excited to get her set up and ready to rock, because we are sure that when it comes to representing Pre-K Apparel, she will Shock & Awe!
We also have gotten some AMAZING press (that we had nothing to do with )…that we would love to share, check out:

We are also developing more crucial facets to our business that we are quite keen on…more shout outs here to Masterlegal and The Sheeb, you are invaluable to us and thanks for believing in that “other level”…once we get there you can say “I told you so!”
I know it seems like we are always shouting people out in this blog…but you know what, we have to because we would be nothing without these True Believers.
I am constantly amazed at the level of support we have gotten for our project so far and even more amazed at the response we have had in the past month and a half of being “live”…the key is to not get overwhelmed, because between B & I, we have a lot going on.
So, here we are poppin off at the Pop Up Shops…a lot of familiar faces and industry friends…Brian fussing with his fence and cleaning up my “messes”…we are excited to show off our baby and let me just say, Pre-K is looking DAMN good today
More as it happens!!

Big Fans
Every week for nearly a year I'd keep hearing how incredible PRE-K Apparel is, but every time I'd just say "Thanks, Mom...love you too."
A much more recent development has been the thrill of a different phenomenon, when people we actually DON'T know — and better yet, people we've heard of and respect — get in touch to compliment our work and find out more about PRE-K.
Now, I'm sworn to secrecy by Renatta because she's afraid we'll jinx some of the good fortune that's been coming our way, but suffice it to say stores we love have been inquiring. Ain't that some shit? Gotta say, it's a relief to finally get some feedback from people inside the industry but outside our fan-camp. (BTW, speaking of fans, if you find yourself reading this, go ahead and click that little "follow" button up top-right...we've got nearly 150 fans in our facebook group so far, and a lowly 2 here on our blog! :)
In other news, our first batch of look books came off the presses today. They look great! If you'd like to have one for your very own, just shoot an email to info@prekapparel.com and request one & we'll pop it in the mail for ya.
Oh yeah, also, we made another charitable donation last week to the Doug Flutie Foundation to help in the fight against autism. "An Evolution of Style," a charity benefit on Sunday night held at Bond in Boston, featured six of our onesies in the silent auction. I never got the final tally, but walked past the clipboard at one point and saw a bid for $110...not too shabby!
Finally, we're printing 200 more pieces today and into next week. The guys over at One-Off apparel in Millbury, Massachusetts were working their asses off yesterday when I was over for the press check — and the newest "I Feel the Baby's Kicks" features an all-metallic print that looks unbelievably cool! (Also on the presses will be "Cribs," "Word" and even more of our current best seller on Karmaloop: "The Tux.")
So, that's the news for now. Again, please don't hesitate to reach out and say hey if you're reading this. We're never above hearing from people who are into our brand (even if it is just you again, Mom).
