Sparkle and Shine

New Years is the perfect time to rock your sparkling apparel and shine like the star you are! I love to Sparkle in Siwy Sequins, Beam in Tai Bracelets, Twinkle in True Religions, and be Radiant in Robins Jeans. With dazzling denim and just enough jewelry I am ready for 2010 and you will be too… check out our Blue Bee stores or visit us at www.bluebee.com.

Alexander Wang PreFall 2010

Alexander Wang is a genius. His creations just get better and better. I am so excited for fall 2010, his sheer tops and oversized blazers are unlike anything I've seen. Amazing.

All I Want For Christmas...

This Alexander Wang Eniko Gunny Sack Camel bag is currently my number one obsession...It's the perfect size, and I am in love with anything suede right now.

I love Paul Smith! I could totally see myself walking the streets of Rome in these tan dip dye shoes.

I want this Daughters of the Revolution mini for my birthday, or it could pass as a new years ensemble.

The Bronze detail is so cool...

I need this Loeffler Randall Oversized Blazer in my closet! Let's hope Santa hears me...

Merry Christmas everyone!

I love to do everything in my grey Genetic Jeans (sold exclusively at blue bee boutique). I bike to school in them with my homemade ripped up tank and Cosa Bella bra. I even lounge with them on in the grass in my backyard. They go with everything in my wardrobe from my 12th street silk shirts to my Alexander Wang boyfriend tees.

A KILLER Evening, by Daniel Corrigan, Blue Bee Men, Stylist

Brandon Flowers and Ronnie Vannucci Jr from The Killers stopped by Blue Beetle and Blue Bee Men before their show at the Santa Barbara Bowl. After hanging out for for 45 minutes the guys made off with some really rad stuff. Brandon bought a pair of Jean Shop jeans and a few Band of Outsiders shirts, and Ronnie got a Gilded Age flannel, RRL flannel (that he was rocking during the show) and a Jean Shop bag. They invited me to go to the show with them, they were so awesome in concert and really great guys. If you haven't seen them go check them out! They're so rad live. I meet up with them after the show and Ronnie was rocking his new RRL shirt. I don’t know why my face looks so weird in the picture but whatever...it was a rad night!

Back in the Swing of Things, by Daniel Corrigan, Blue Bee Men Stylist

Ties are no longer your dads uniform for work. Work should be fun and so should your outfit. Make yourself noticeable, maybe you'll get a raise! Or if you're looking to impress your teachers at school, show up fresh as can be. Its all about mis-matching shirts and ties. We are getting some great ties in from Paul Smith and Band of Outsiders. Don't hold back on colors, patterns, and different combinations. We are all about pairing the ties with Band of Outsider shirts, and The Shirt from Joe's. The guys at Blue Bee Men and Blue Beetle put on a mini photo shoot in front of our store today. This was the outcome. Keep it Rad, Daniel

Join the Band of Outsiders, by Daniel Corrigan, Blue Bee Men Stylist

I can't name all the celebs that sport Band of Outsiders. I do know Kanye West rocks it and Band of Outsiders is in every magazine you pick up theses days. But really who the fuck cares where it is. Band is still an underground fashion label. I do not care where I am if I see someone wearing a Band of Outsiders shirt, I connect with him. I am not one for collecting; in fact I tend to get rid of clothing fairly often as I seem to move once a year. But one thing I am proud of is My Band Of Outsiders collection so far: I have rounded up 2 pairs of Sperry Topsiders by Band, 5 shirts, and 1 tie. As the label on each shirt wrinkles in time more end up in my collection. And I would be willing to say I wear 4 of the shirts in one week. I have to give thanks to my fellow Blue Beetle employee (and your favorite web model) who gave me a few of his shirts because he got too buff for them. These shirts are the true definition of class and perfection in tailoring.

A Wrinkle in Time, Steven Alan by Daniel Corrigan, Blue Bee Men Buyer

Steven Alan celebrates his unique approach to American classics this Fall. His inspiration touches on fashion in the 1960's as well as traditional American work wear. The button up shirts feature American collegiate and prep school looks mixed in with fun patterns, polka dots, reds, purples, greens and yellows. Reading into Steven Alan and his inspiration for Fall I discovered he looked into some of Americans classic shirts such as Pendleton, Woolrich, and L.L. Bean. As summer turns to fall, these shirts are great to layer over a v-neck, or crew neck shirt. The greatest part about these shirts is you will never need to iron them, in fact I recommend embracing the wrinkles!

Joe's for the Bro's and the Ho's
Posted by Marty Bebout



Here is the staff of Blue Bee Jeans and Blue Beetle wearing The Shirt by Joe's. Don't we look good in them? These super-chill and super-soft shirts are also super-affordable at $98 a pop!



Tara and Megan are national sales reps for Joe's. Tara for the ho's, Megan for the bro's. We are getting ready for the Blue Bee Back to School Block Party, Saturday, August 15th, 2009.



This nice guy bought 4 pairs of Joe's. Thanks bro! Rock that shit, Megan!



Tara sold dozens of pairs. She never gets tired after 6 years of selling Joe's!

It was a long and fruitful day, busy like old times. Is the recession over everywhere? - or just at

Blue Bee?

We'd like to thank Elena, Carol, Jennifer, Mark, and Joe. We appreciate your support for Blue Bee, a small specialty store. Joe's rocks!

Simon Miller Jeans Rockin' The Denim World by Daniel Corrigan, Blue Beetle Stylist and Buyer

This New Zealand native is taking over the selvedge jean world, one rad wash

at a time. I can't wait to have him in the store Saturday, August 15th. My
favorite is the Slim Straight L.A. fit. It works with pretty much all guys
(even those with big thighs, trust me I have heard that excuse one too many
times). It's not too slim, so you will not look like your 13 year old son,
brother or me for that matter.
These look great with a blazer and broken in boots. I am liking the John

Varvatos combat boots. I am thinking this Fall will be all about selvedge denim and broken in boots. For those guys looking for a more relaxed bootcut check out the Washington fit. I will get an interview with Simon and video footage of the event. If you're close by, come check it out! I am super excited for it. We also have a ton of stuff coming up this week so check back as we are doing a mini remodel at Blue Beetle and Blue Bee Men. I am hoping we do an all-nighter one of the days to get everything together for the weekend. Peace out blogsters Daniel
