The BAE Bulletin: Here's When and Where to Cop This Week's Best Releases
Including KAWS x Uniqlo UT and two YEEZY drops.
For most of us, the start of June signals one thing: the official beginning of the summer season. With longer, warmer days to look forward to and those long-anticipated vacations approaching soon, it’s the perfect time to start planning your latest round of seasonal wardrobe essentials. Luckily, we’ve rounded up some must-have items that are landing this week. Sneakerheads will be aware that Kanye’s newest YEEZY BOOSTs are arriving within the next few days; although in a black colorway they’re not as bright as you might like for summer, they’re still a timeless addition to the roster.
When it comes to apparel, Uniqlo UT has teamed up with KAWS once again on an array of T-shirts and practical tote bags boasting the adorable Companion and BFF character graphics. For all you makeup junkies out there, MAC is finally releasing its dreamy “Electric Wonder” collection, jam-packed with vibrant eyeshadows, lipsticks and more.
