 In Apparel

There is no doubt about it; we spend a lot of time trawling through Tumblr sites

It is a wonderful medium to express an interest or show your skills, to gain inspiration or simply to look at beautiful things.

The great thing is the interconnectivity of it all. One thing will lead to the next and so on. It is almost limitless.

There are a few that keep us coming back for more. Here is a run down of the sites we reference for inspiration, motivation and vision.

Rope Dye Inspiration

Indigo Blue

A beautiful mix of denim, boots accessories, interiors and the odd beautiful girl thrown into the mix.

We love the way the images are structured tonally. It gives a very homogenous feel to a site that is more curated than collected.Follow the Indigo Blue Tumblr here.

We covered the fascinating tale of STORY mfg. a while back. We love their take on the British denim scene and their dedication to tradition.

Along with the brand’s site, they also have a Tumblr that is the most true (indigo) blue on this list. From Americana to traditional Japanese and everything in-between. If indigo has touched something, it is welcome in the STORY mfg. Tumblr.See more beautiful indigo dyed garments and fabrics here.
