W hen walking through any department store, it's hard not to spot occult or punk-inspired fashion . Clothing and accessories that have hardware like spikes and studs , and patterns that feature skulls, crosses, and pentagrams were once only seen in underground shops and now they are all the rage. Only a few decades ago, people were once shunned or rejected by mainstream society for wearing some of the apparel that you can now find at your favorite store in the mall. According to controversial designer, performing artist, and superstar Jordy Marilyn, mainstream celebrities are where most trends start in America. “I find all trends repulsive, but the act of trending is what fascinates me.” When it comes to this new, dark trend in ready-to-wear fashion, Marilyn feels that when ordinary people wear these items it is like false advertising. “How could a gal who’s never read a single bible verse wear a cross?

Saints and Sinners , Channing Tatum’s new bar and restaurant inspired by New Orleans Storyville brings back the vibe of speakeasies found in the 1920’s and adds a new experience to Bourbon Street. By: Channing Parfait The historic red light district in New Orleans, also known as Storyville, offered risqué women and men of the 1920’s a place to gather where brothels were legal, and it created a hub for talented musicians from around the city known for its roots in jazz. Channing Tatum along with his business partner, Keith Kurtz, established Saints and Sinners as a bar that pays tribute to New Orleans classical, good-time reputation. The “laissez les bon temps rouler” attitude is seen throughout Saints and Sinners with red and highly detailed wallpaper, Victorian accents, and red furniture fit to the Burlesque theme. Anyone who visited Saints and Sinners for grand opening weekend from Nov. 2 through Nov. 3 was asked to wear outfits inspired from the 1890’s to 1920’s s...
