How To Get Pete Wentz On You

In 2004 Pete Wentz, the beautifully tortured bass player/front man of Fall Out Boy, created Clandestine Industries as an outlet to sell his book. In 2005 it expanded into a clothing line geared towards punky-emo youth.

Now, Clandestine and DKNY have decided to collaborate on a new women's line. *Gasp* Petey and DKNY working together to make uber-emo skinny jeans - for women?? Oh yes, it's true.

The collection only features a few key items, but it definitely reflects Wentz's style. It features graphics inspired by his tattoos, and his Clandestine logo, which is actually taken from a tattoo he has on his lower stomach (check it out below). There is also a print tee that has a large pixilated picture of his dog, Hemingway.

It's perfectly rock star because:
  1. It's inspired by his awesome tattoos...
  2. It's basically all black, with the Hemingway tee being an exception.
  3. It features skinny jeans and a trench coat.
  4. The man who created it is better known for wearing guyliner than playing bass in his band.

Where can you find it?

I recommend buying it online, since Macy's is offering a free Fall Out Boy CD with a purchase of $100 or more. (It's not cheap, so this is easy to do.) Or you can go to a Dillards or Macy's near you that carries the line.
