Another Contest - Fabric Giveaway
Saturday, February 23, 2008
So Ingrid of Cherry Tree Graphics and I are working on the Downtown Joey web site for my new boys’ clothing line. And I need a TERRIFIC TAG LINE…so help me out!
FIVE YARDS OF FABRIC TO WHOEVER COMES UP WITH THE BEST TAG LINE!!!
First let me tell you a little about who Downtown Joey is:
- He fights with his sister, but worships his mother
- He always stick ups for the smaller kid
- He is a pro video gamer
- He doesn’t go after the girl his buddy has already claimed
- He sweet talks the babysitter
- He loves Super Heroes and secretly aspires to be one
- He blushes when kissed in public
- He wishes his mother would let him dress in Star Wars’ t-shirts, but settles for pajamas instead.
- He doesn’t like to be wrong
- He goes up the playground slide backward
- He refuses to eat anything green
- He can wield a sword, light saber or nunchuk better than a Ninja
If I remember correctly, my old tag line was something like, “Uptown style for your Downtown Boy.” Not sure. But I’d really like to play up the Uptown/Downtown thing as we are based here in NYC…so we are naturally COOL…LOL! However, it can be anything that fits!
So let’s hear your ideas. You may submit as many tag lines as you’d like! Can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with!
With friendship,
Lisa

First thing that pops in my head is Updown Cool for the Downtown crew. I’ll keep thinking though.

I don’t know that I’m good at this sort of thing, but how about…
“Downtown Joey…owns uptown style”
“Downtown Joey…hits the streets of uptown in style”
“Downtown Joey…takes over uptown”
I feel like a dork :p

Hi Lisa!
I’ve got no tagline suggestions, but want to congratulate you on your Downtown Joey line. It’s really fantastic! I’ve got daughters but my many friends with boys tell me how hard it is to find great boys clothing - and yours is all superb. Well done, and good luck!

I have nothing to add, but I vote for Jen’s: Downtown Joey -what the Uptown kids want to wear. You might also shorten it further, leaving out the “want to”.
