William — Mon, 09 Jan 2012 21:39:19 +0000

This past season’s Holiday Package was a long labor of love. It was exciting to see each piece from idea to completion.
A special very special thanks to Blanchards Coffee Co for their caffeinated wisdom, Big Secret for the laser engraving, Richmond Soap Studio for their knowledge, patience, getting the scent of our soap and candles perfect, and Adam Hogsett for his expertise of everything wood.

We love creating and working with our friends and look forward to more of both in the very near future.

To a new year. Lets make it a good one.

Ali — Thu, 23 Jun 2011 20:46:51 +0000

Need Supply Co. and RGB Cosmetics team up to create nail color in celebration of Need Supply Co.’s 15th Anniversary

Renowned nail care line RGB Cosmetics has teamed up with celebrated retailer Need Supply Co., creating a limited edition nail color to observe Need Supply Co.’s 15th Anniversary. Appropriately named “1996,” the year Need Supply Co. opened, this denim blue hue commemorates the store’s modest beginings selling vintage Levi’s. Like the other nail colors in the RGB line, “1996″ is 5-free, excluding harmful chemicals such as formaldehyde, toluene, DBP, camphor and resin.

“RGB’s retail partnership with Need Supply Co. was a perfect fit from the start and our collaboration was a result of that. I admire how Need Supply Co. edits their assortment to perfectly fit their client, making shopping effortless and streamlined. We do the same with RGB, editing our colors to make it easy for the consumer,” states RGB founder, Gina Carney. “We’re thrilled to be a part of their anniversary celebration and to have created “1996′” hornoring Need Supply Co.’s start in denim.”

“RGB nail colors are a beauty staple at Need Supply Co., and the opportunity to create our own commemorative color is an honor and a fun way to celebrate our growth with our customers,” says Krystle Kemp, women’s buyer for Need Supply Co. “The denim blue shade we chose speaks to our roots as a vintage Levi’s store and is also a great season-less staple- just like your favorite pairs of jeans.”

RGB “1996″ is sold exclusively at Need Supply Co. and NeedSupply.com, with a SRP of $16.

It’s so nice how your favorite jacket still fits like it’s your favorite jacket, and how that new button-up makes you feel like a million bucks. But there is so much history and new current turmoil while hundreds of American clothing manufacturers are going out of business and much of the business is done overseas now.
