Just because our massively successful, fireworks-and-burger-filled 4th of July sale is over doesn't mean you have to stop saving. Just ask Amy Willard of the extremely cool (and aesthetically pleasing) online music mag Barricade Buzz, seen with Justin Richards, Nick Santino and Eric Halvorsen of the band A Rocket To The Moon. Amy's rocking our Debbie Harry Punk tee, one of several designs worn by the Blondie singer and fashion goddess -- all of which are now on sale at 10% off (with free shipping).
It's part of our ongoing Deborah Harry Birthday Sale, which continues through July 15. Just use coupon code RAPTURE at checkout.
But that's not all. Barricade Buzz is actually giving away another of our Debbie shirts (the paparazzi-defying No Pictures), so head on over there and enter to win!

More Deb designs soon; c'mon back.
A lot of pop artists are routinely dubbed "true originals," but how many of them combined the wit and street-level insight of Charles Dickens, the bawdy rhymes of music hall, the confrontational stance of punk rock and disco's relentless party groove?
By our calculus, only one.
His name was Ian Dury, and once upon a time he hit the scene (backed up by his riduclously hot band, The Blockheads) with inspired tunes like "Sex and Drugs and Rock 'n' Roll," "Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick," "What a Waste," "Wake Up and Make Love to Me," "Billericay Dickie" and "There Ain't Half Been Some Clever Bastards," instantly raising the bar for pop rhyme, expanding the palette of punk and teaching smart-aleck kids with funny hair how to dance.
Don't believe us? Check it out, mate:
Before he was felled by cancer in 2000, Ian Dury completed a fleet of brilliant recordings, acted in films, wrote a stage musical, turned down an offer to write the libretto for the eternal musical Cats, served as an ambassador for UNICEF, and spoke out for AIDS awareness, the rights of the disabled and, most especially, Cancer Bacup, a charity that has since become part of Macmillan Cancer Support.
We're celebrating this great artist and stand-up bloke on the anniversary of his departure by offering 10% of all his shirts -- and by donating 10% of the proceeds to Macmillan Cancer Support. Just use the coupon code RAZZLE at checkout when you order the dashing Blockhead, the boldly checked Taxi or exotic Antigua.
Viva Italia!
You may recall our prior dispatches about the appearance of WF shirts in international crime thrillers; it's time for an update.
We think you'll agree that if you're going to go about stopping La Cosa Nostra, you might as well look cool doing it. Well, the cast and crew of the forthcoming Italian flick Squadra antimafia (due to air on Canale 5 early next year) understands this all too well.
On a stakeout? Why not dress up that look with a bit of bling, some badass shades and our John Van Hamersveld "skull tongue" tee?
Just hanging out and observing the wiseguys? We suggest being conspicuous in your inconspicuousness by donning some fierce catwalk specs and our '77-style Debbie Harry "Punk" shirt.
Busting in on the bad guys, commando-style? You'll want to be attired in no-nonsense camo pants accented with an official law enforcement-esque blue windbreaker over WF's Joan Jett Turner's on the Strip tee. It says you're not to be trifled with, but you know how to party. And that's exactly what they need on the Squadra antimafia.
But before we say "ciao" to this sexy, stylin', boot-shaped land, we refer you to some Italian rock, courtesy of Euro-heartthrob Luciano Ligabue.
As you'll observe in this romantic clip for Ligabue's "Il Centro del Mondo," this band loves them some comfy, oh-so-chic WF shirts. The cutting is quick, but perhaps you'll notice a couple.
Regular Lost viewers -- and you can count us among those alternately riveted and puzzled hordes -- received a shock on a recent episode when (spoiler alert, if you're planning to catch the season on DVD or just have a TiVo backlog) the character of Alex Rousseau was summarily terminated.
Alex, rebellious and lovestruck daughter of the enigmatic quasi-villain Ben Linus, was played by the radiantly gorgeous Tania Raymonde, seen here making Worn Free's Joey Ramone Punk shirt look incredibly glamorous.
Tania first caught our eye years ago, playing the precocious (if obnoxious) Cynthia Sanders on Malcolm in the MIddle. Though her beauty was evident, the adolescent actress primarily showed a fierce presence, a strong aptitude for comedy, and a striking ability to temper her character's pain-in-the-butt qualities with aching vulnerability. We knew she was bound for bigger things. By the time she appeared on Lost, she'd grown so coltishly exquisite that it took us a moment to connect her with the gawky Cynthia.
Now that her character's gone to the great island in the sky, she's begun to expand her film work. We look forward to her breakout role.
Who's that dark-haired lass sporting our enticing Joan Jett peacock shirt, you ask? It's Libby Lavella, an Australian-born singer/songwriter who makes her home in the City of Angels.
We're always excited to hip people to artists we like, and Libby's a hell of a find -- not only a fresh and resourceful songwriter but also a fantastically gifted vocalist.
On May 31, Angelenos will have an opportunity to experience the range of her abilities -- first at a Room 5 gig, showcasing her winsomely appealing originals, and then, later that evening, wailing at M Bar's raucous joyfest The Classic Rock Singalong.
At the latter event, Libby will pay tribute to her country of origin with stirring renditions of songs made famous by AC/DC and Olivia Newton-John. She says she's not worried about being typecast as an Australian.
