Pic o' the Week

Kellan and Peter reading New Moon makes us giggle.

MUSE and Silversun Pickups

Jess and I just got tickets to go see MUSE and the Silversun Pickups in April. We are SO excited. Its one of those ying yang things we talk about all the time. MUSE is my fave right now and Silversun Pickups is Jess' band of the moment. We can't wait!!

In honor of our girls night out in April I found these vids for you. The first one is one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Evidently the guys from MUSE don't like it when TV producers tell them they have to perform using pre-recorded tracks, and I guess they have a kind of history of acting up when forced to do so. On this clip from an Italian TV show, the singer is 'playing' the drums, the drummer is on bass and lead vocals and the bassist is playing lead guitar and keyboards. AWESOME!

*be sure to pause our music mix before you click on the vids!

Christmas List

My list is pretty short this year.
*Be sure to scroll down and pause our music mix before you start the video.



What's on YOUR Christmas list?

Newest Book Obsession

Jess: Just finished the Sookie books and I want more!!!









Micha: I'm completely in love with Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series. I'm up to Six and I can't stop. I'm outta control. I blame Kim and Siobhan for my newest book obsession and fictional crush. Damn you both!! Morelli or Ranger...I just can't decide!

WeBook Apparel in J-14 Magazine

We've hooked up with J-14 Magazine and we're giving away 25 of our fun Twilight car shirts. The WeBook Apparel prize give away is featured in the the December issue and is on newsstands now!!

Pic o' the Week

*sigh* Another lovely Vanity Fair out take.

Spunk Ransom got BLINGED!!!

Spunk has always been a customer favorite, but we think we've made it almost irresistible. Dozens of tiny silver, sparkly studs made our SPUNK RANSOM shirt even better. Our new favorite color around here is sparkle, can you tell?? Order yours today!!! WeBookApparel.com

WeBook Apparel Reveals Four New Designs

We've been busy around here. When we asked you what you wanted to see us do next, you told us more Black Dagger, more Sookie, more Twlight...I think its safe to say we listened. Get your shirts for the New Moon movie release!! Only sixteen days!! Check out the new shirts at WeBook Apparel.com

Pic o' the Week!

Once again we find a pic that showcases two of our favorite things. The Boondock Saints and Cardboard Edward. I'm not very happy that the McManus brothers have guns pointed at dear Edward, but its still pretty freakin' great. Seventeen days until New Moon!!

Happy Halloween!!

Somehow I don't think Tim would let me put this on the porch.



Click here for a little more Twilight Halloweeny fun!

New Moon Soundtrack

According to MTV, the New Moon soundtrack release date was pushed from October 20 to October 16 due to "overwhelming and unprecedented" demand. Way to go Twilighters!! Myspace has had the tracks up for a few days now - has anyone had a chance to take a listen? I have and I've already got my faves. Now I just need to stay away from it so I don't start trying to figure out where each song fits in the story. I don't want EVERYTHING spoiled. Sheesh.

WeBook Apparel in Twilight Magazine!

Jess got an email from our insurance broker congratulating us on WeBooks placement in Twilight Magazine. HUH?! Holy smokes! We are in Twilight Magazine!! Click on the image above to see the photo of our booth at TwiCon in Dallas this summer. Woo Hoo!!

Outlander Book Seven - Book Signing

Jos and Mich went to the Diana Gabaldon book signing for An Echo in the Bone last week. I couldn't love this series or DG more!! She read an excerpt from book 7 and Jos and I both got giggly when it turned out to be a naughty Jamie bit. I love this woman!! Did you know she didn't start writing Outlander until she was 36? She's my new hero. There's still hope for us wannabe authors after all!

New Muse - Available in the U.S. Today!

If you watched the 2009 MTV VMAs then you saw MUSE perform the song, The Uprising, live. Matthew Bellamy is freakin' AWESOME!!! Their new relase, The Resistance is available for purchase in the US today. You can hear an album sample here.

Everybody knows Supermassive Blackhole was the BEST song on the entire Twilgiht Soundtrack - and most will admit that the baseball scene was their favorite part of the movie, largely BECAUSE of the song. My love of MUSE pre-dates the knowledge that they were the soundtrack while she was writing Twilight. I can't wait to download my copy when I get home tonight. WOOT!

Are you a pre-Twilight MUSE fan, or did you only discover them post-Twilight?

Pic o' the Week

We picked an Alice pic this week for lots of reasons.

1. Because we love her.
2. Because Jess' favorite part of the series is Italy.
3. Because Mich thinks that based on the previews so far, that the Italy scenes in New Moon might redeem everything that was wrong with the Meadow scene in Twilight.

New Moon Extended Trailer

I have no words...only 66 more torturous days to wait!!

Pic o' the Week

Jess and I are about as different as two people can be. She's an old school punk girl and I love crappy 80's and indie folk music. She's good at math and I suck at it. She likes beer, while I like vodka. Night and day. Ying and yang. Imagine my surprise when miracle of all miracles, I stumbled upon a pic this week that features two of our very favorite things. #1 Ewan McGregor for Jess, #2 a hot Scot (a la Jamie Fraser in Outlander) in a kilt for Mich. *sigh*

We're still busy designing and working on the newsetter so we'll have some updates and fun news for you all soon!!

WeBook Loves Jamie Fraser

Anyone who has talked to us at the recent Twilight conferences knows I've got a big ol' goose-bumpy kind of love for Jamie Fraser and the Outlander series. Its so nice to hear that I'm not alone for my shameless infactuation with the burly Scot! I just found out that author, Diana Gabaldon, is doing a book signing in Denver for book 7, An Echo in the Bone, on September 23. Can't wait!!! Anyone else in Denver going? Wanna go??

P.S. We heard you when you told us you wanted an Outlander T-Shirt. Dinna fash yourselves, ladies...we won't disappoint.

Spunk Ransom T-Shirt and MTV

MTV gives another nod to our Spunk Ransom t-shirts on their blogs! Check the Spunk Ransom section and click on Twilight Merch...kepp clicking...follow the bread crumbs! We LOVE MTV and Larry Carrol!!

MTV Blog - Top 10 'Twilight' MTV Moments, From Spunk Ransom To 100 Monkeys

Following the Blog Rules

The first rule of the WeBook Girls blog: The Pretty must be on the front page of the blog at all times.

I suppose while we've got a bit of white space to fill I could toss out a couple of New Moon trivia questions...

1. When and to whom does Bella say, "You might have noticed my boyfriend glitters. Its just something he does..."

2. When is Bella's birthday?

3. Who is Elizabeth Masen?

TwiTour New Jersey Photos

We've just gotten back from Jersey and have some fun pics to share. Thanks to everyone who stopped by, bought a shirt or talked books with us. We've got a couple of new books to check out, we have a TON of ideas for new shirts :cough*BlackDagger*cough: and a can't wait to get our newsletter going. Enjoy the pics!!

Spunk Ransom Sandwich

We're starting a new blog feature: PIC OF THE WEEK. It might be a pic of our favorite vamps or wolves (yes, I said wolves - seeing the wolf pack in NJ has softened me up a bit for the beasties - YUM!). We might choose a favorite pic that maybe a customer sends in, or anything that might give us a tickle. To start this feature off proper, we've got a fun photo from our adventures at TwiTour this past weekend. Jess and I developed a little bit of a crush on Fire and Ice Photo's EDWARD. Seeing EDWARD play the piano does someting for the soul, not to mention goes a long way to suspend belief that a real EDWARD might really exist. He was a great sport and let us go all cheese ball with out SPUNK RANSOM gear. ::Thanks Daniel and Heather!::

WeBook Apparel - TwiCon 2009 Photos

Thanks again to everyone who took home a WeBook Apparel t-shirt from TwiCon in Dallas, and congratulations to the lucky few who won a shirt in our raffle. Here are a few of the lucky winners and some new friends we made in Dallas!

WeBook Apparel is Going to TwiTour Jersey!

We just packed and shipped 500 shirts to Parsippany, New Jersey for TwiTour this weekend. We're SUPER exctied to be taking our Twilight, BDB and Sookie stuff to the East Coast, and even more excited to be meeting up with some long time forum friends. Here's hoping my mojo and my natural proclivity for being at the right place at the right time holds up. I've got Kellan in my sights, girls!!

New Moon Trailer #2

I still think I might have to take a flask or my knitting to get through the non-Edward bits of this movie, but I'm super stoked about how it looks. SO EXCITED!!!



I know you've got something to say...tell us what you think!!

WeBook is taking Spunk to Utah

5000 Twilight Moms are descending on Utah and WeBook Apparel is going to be there to get our Spunk on!! This of course means that we won't be in town to go to the midnight release of New Moon in our own hometown with our beloved book clubbers. BUT we will get to see it with our dear friend, Q, so all is well.

Where: South Towne Exposition Center
When: November 19th & 20th, 2009

A premiere party that Twilight fans will love and the casual observer can appreciate. Enjoy The Mitch Hansen Band in concert and private movie showings at the Megaplex Theatres at Jordan Commons. Both days will be filled with activities and Twilight vendors on hand to appease your Twilight appetite!

WeBook is going to TwiTour NJ!

Jess: We should go to Jersey.

Mich: Huh?!

Jess: Seriously, we can do it. We've got three weeks to get ready.

Mich: Wha?

Jess: C'mon. You know you wanna.

Mich: But -

Jess: I'll be your best friend.

Mich: Crap.

Jess: Wheeeeee!!!

TwiTour, August 28-30 - Parsippany, NJ

WeBook Apparel and MTV

WeBook Apparel is mentioned in MTV blog!! An excerpt is included below, but you can find the entire blog article here: Go On A 'Twilight' Shopping Spree With Our TwiCon Reporter: Magnets! Candy! T-Shirts!

"Another cool booth belonged to “We Book Apparel”, where t-shirts with funny, original “Twilight”-related messages were being sold. One of the shirts said “OME,” standing for "Oh My Edward," which I thought was really funny. Another shirt had “Spunk Ransom”, which was the nickname that Robert Pattinson gave himself while being interviewed by MTV last year. I got the “Spunk Ransom” shirt, which I knew only the best “Twilight” fans would understand." - posted by Larry Carroll and Fara Madi (MTV contest winner)

WeBook LOVES MTV!!

WeBook Apparel is EVERYWHERE!!

WeBook at TwiCon...what a trip!! They loved Spunk, OME, Southern and the Bonded shirts the best. We'll be posting up pics of folks wearing our stuff soon.

Our three Sookie friends at the Reelz Channel booth at TwiCon.

Books, books, books!!

Little Eddie was not happy that we were reading anything other than HIS book at TwiCon. Jess is on the Sookie books and I'm reading all about Jamie Fraser in the Outlander series. Speaking of which, we are going through your raffle entries and reading all about what books you'd like to see us design for next. Can't wait to see the end results!!

"These girls are totally cheating on me!!" -LIttle Eddie

Wonder what the weather is like in Parsippany in August? Siobhan says its lovely, but I'm thinking she would tell me anything to get me anywhere near her neck of the woods, much less her new hometown! The WeBook Girls in NJ? Mmmmmaaayybee.

Little Eddie at TwiCon

Little Eddie had a good time with us at TwiCon. I'm afraid of what his mother (waves at Birdee!!) will think about the photographic chronicle of his time in Dallas, but I can only say that it wasn't entirely my fault. Eddie begged for a margarita - who am I to deny?

Poolside Post TwiCon

We are so excited and tired, as all the adrenaline from the past three days has finally subsided and our bodies and minds are beginning to shut down. We had such an amazing time and met a TON of fun people who speak our language. Thanks to everyone who stopped by and chatted about our favorite books, for everyone who fell in love with our shirts and took one (or 5!!) home with them and to all of the amazing people we met this weekend. BIG loves to all my Twilighted sisters...love you girls!!!

Carlisle Cullen in an elevator...

What do you do when Carlisle Cullen steps into the same elevator car with you? Hell if I know what would have been appropriate, but I at least had enough of my wits about me to pull out my camera. He's really quite pretty, girls. ::swoon::

WeBook and MTV

We got to meet and chat with Larry Carroll from MTV at TwiCon today!!! Larry was the journalist who was responsible for the hilarious interview where Robward came up with his now famous SPUNK RANSOM nick name. Fingers crossed that there'll be a blogity blog post on MTV.com. We're having a great time in Dallas at TwiCon 09!!!

Spunk Interview with Larry Carroll

A few of my favorite things

I'm looking forward to TwiCon and Dallas for more than the obvious reasons.

1. I get to talk Twilight for FOUR DAYS with people who speak fluent Edward.
2. I get to have TEX MEX and drink sangria swirled frozen margaritas from Papasitos
3. I get to see Rick Springfield in a Gilley's style honkey tonk on Saturday night
4. I get to be with my favorite girlies all weekend - and no kiddos!!
5. I get to meet a bunch of gals that I've been working with for ages, but have never seen face to face.
6. I'll be in close proximity to Emmett, Jasper and Alice and by 'close proximity' I mean within stalking distance. ;)

Life is good.

Leaving on a jet plane

Bags packed - check!
Inventory shipped - check!
Everything we needed to confirm, is confirmed - check!
Well rested and ready to take on TwiCon - erhm...HELLS YEAH!!

Well, maybe not the well rested bit, but we're definitely ready to go. We'll be tweeting and blogging from the convention floor in Dallas so be sure to check in regularly. I've got my friend Brigette's Little Eddie, so we'll be sending up lots of fun pictures and hopefully some juicy deets from the convention. Don't know about Little Eddie? Keep watching the blog and you will!!

SIX DAYS!!

Only six days until TwiCon! The Pretty looks exactly how we feel right about now. Its crazy and we're tired, but its fun!!

We have a new playlist today. Russ and Andy already sussed out the "what do these musicians have in common" theme, but can you? Its really not that tricksy.

We Might Be Crazy

This is our reply to everyone who thinks we're both just a wee bit crazy for doing what we do and for taking the show on the road to TwiCon.

Gratuitous Robward and new tunes

This weeks music picks: 30 Seconds to Mars - Edge of the Earth; Kasabian - Club Foot; and Kings of Leon - Notion.

We're both just a little in love with Jared Leto / Jordan Catalano. It can't be helped. Kasabian provides Jess with her vampy soundtrack and KOL is just plain cool.

I was a little sad to see that the Pretty had almost fallen off the page. There aren't many rules around here, but there is one: A Robward post must be present on the front page at all times. Carry on...

Stupid, shiny Volvo Shirt

We're printing the CAR Shirts for TwiCon this week. We've got the Yellow Porsche for Alice fans, Emmett's Jeep, Bella's Chevy and of course dear Edward's Volvo. Which one is YOUR favorite?

15 Days Until TwiCon

Fourteen days and we're on a plane to Dallas for TwiCon. WE CAN'T WAIT!! Jess is a little nervous, but I keep reassuring her that she speaks fluent Twilight, so she'll be just fine. We're banging out the last of the inventory this weekend (we hope) and then shipping everything off. Woo Hoo!!!

Damn Jacob Ruled My Day

We spent the ENTIRE day printing our "Imprint Me" shirts. They're gorgeous, but holy Hell...can't a girl just focus on the MOST important character and his shirts for one hot second? Jess loves the pup, and so do Jody and Tim, and today I get word that after a re-vamp of New Moon, Jos has crossed over as well. Has the world tilted on it axis and gone mad?

The pic that is included in this post is to placate our Jacob girls...and boys. Its rare, and quite honestly it hurt my heart to go in search of the damn thing, but after a few requests (thanks for the back up RUSS) I had to appease. Enjoy it while you can, it won't happen often.

We're TWEETING!!

User: WeBookApparel
Name: WeBook_texbelle

We have officially lost our minds. We've caved and entered the big, bad, over-involved world of Twitter. Pray for us...and then send us a tweet!!

Southern Vamps...maybe a Jasper?

We printed all our Southern Vampire shirts for TwiCon and they're BE-YU-TE-FUL!!! We've made one for Jasper in hopes that we'll be able to give it to him in Dallas. We're going to his 100 Monkeys show during the con and we've got a little insider access and have hopes that we'll be able to meet him afterwards. WOOT!!! Jasper wearin' our Southern shirt would just be too cool.

Robward on a Fixie

Jess and I work together and have for the last - ooh jeez, what is it - almost 8 years in the transportation industry. Today, our Twilight world and our work world collided with an email that included a pic of Robward on a bike. To be more precise an authentic brakeless 'fixie'. The fixed gear bike kids are blogging about it all over the place and its making the nerdy transportaiton circuit. Woot!
