Bonnaroo Recap Year 2
Posted on June 18 2015
Many of those who follow New Lyfe know about our trips to Bonnaroo. This year was just as epic.
As usual, we all flew into Atlanta, picked up an RV and drove to Tennesee. Bonnaroo reminds me every year how I used to spend so much time and money on drugs, just to discover that I could get that same feeling from music. It's a revelation...

Official Trailer for "Jurassic World" Is Released - And It Looks AWESOME!!!
Posted on April 20 2015
I know what you're thinking. How could any new addiction to the "Jurassic Park" series live up to the movies we watched as a kid. It's impossible for me to think of dinosaurs without thinking of the scene where the T-Rex is chasing them in the Jeep with the words "Objects In Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear" in the wide mirror.
3 Lessons I Have Learned About Running A T-Shirt Company
Posted on April 17 2015
Everyone secretly wants to be in some kind of fashion industry. Society makes it look very glamorous, and parts of it are. However, there is a lot that goes into it that doesn't show up on Instagram. It is a lot of hard work, a lot of worry, and a lot of time thinking to yourself "why am I doing this again." Luckily, the fans have kept New Lyfe alive and well.

Designing An Outfit For the Original Gangster Tee!
Posted on April 14 2015
One of our more well known designs is the Original Gangster Tee. In this design we put a twist on the iconic founder of AA... Bill Wilson.

Announcing The #BEETEAM Rep Program
Posted on April 12 2015
Years ago I started another website called Sober Nation. When we started it we had very little experience with the internet, or marketing online, but we knew that we wanted to build a community.
That has really been the backbone of all of these projects. People in recovery are very passionate about it, and it is the community to that gives it strength and meaning.
So with that idea in my, we are taking it up a notch.
Today we are official announcing our #BEETEAM Rep Program. How does it work you ask?? Well I will tell you.

Expansion Of Our Women's Line
Posted on April 09 2015
Men's t-shirts are easier than women's. Women's fashion just has so many different cuts, lengths, bust sizes and styles. Not to mention the trends for women's fashion seem to change a lot more. I have spent a lot of time over the last month trying to figure out exactly what it is that women are into these days. If I ever figure that out, I should get a medal. (help please?)

Blake Little Photographs People Completely Covered In Honey - And It's Beautiful
Posted on March 03 2015
"For Blake Little’s latest work, “Preservation,” Little executes a simple premise and a singular technique in which his mostly unclothed subjects are covered in gallons of honey while being photographed in the studio. It’s unwieldy, and evidence of that carries through into the pictures, in the faces and bodies of the models and in the dramatic configurations of the honey itself -- all serving to highlight this unique creative process further. Though the most profoundly transformative magic of Preservation resides in the book’s finished portfolio of images, it is still impossible for the viewer to avoid an empathetic moment deconstructing how it was done at every turn."

It has been a very busy year for New Lyfe. There have been many lessons learned.
One of the lessons has been in regards to the product line. Incorporating female cuts into the inventory was something that I always thought about doing. I have been hesitant because women have different bodies, different bust sizes, different styles, etc.
