The design, mastered by the gifted Mike Perry in his very own studio in Crown Heights, embodies a fine representation of the fun, quirky, and versatile people that make up the Crow Hill community. With Franklin Avenue pride beaming from the smiles of locals, About Time Boutique has brought back the colorful posters for those itching to show some love for the avenue.








About Time's new addition



About Time is constantly evolving so it should come as no surprise that it has finally added a female section to the already dynamic line-up. Khamela and Garnett teamed up to create a cutting edge and creative ladies section. It's called K&G's corner and it is conveniently located in the boutique itself. With the immense growth and the continued rising popularity of the About Time boutique it was natural to venture into the world of ladies apparel and accessories. The jewelry is vibrant, the clothes are cutting edge and unique, and the accessories are fun and playful. K&G's corner is well on its way to reach the level of success as the About Time Boutique.

3rd Annual Kids Day Event Comes to a Close

As the blazing sun begins to set on the rooftops of Franklin Avenue the 3rd Annual Kids Day Event comes to a close. Children skip away merrily tightly grasping the prizes acquired throughout the day. Parents gather their families, flashing warm smiles as they recollect the memories made on this true summer day. The Crown Heights community’s dedication was duly noted in the absolute success of the event. Now as the rides are disassembled and the last of the stickers are given away, the feeling of togetherness is stronger than ever; everyone is pulling together even in the clean-up effort. For those who weren’t able to attend, you can still relive the day through the multiple photo albums on the About Time Boutique Facebook Fan Page and the videos posted in the previous blog posts. Once again, a big thank you to all of the 3rd Annual Kids Day Event’s official sponsors. Without them today would not have been possible.

Keeping Cool at The Kids Day Event

About Time Boutique’s recent publicity in AM New York has helped make this Kids Day bigger than the ones before. The graciousness of those families enjoying the event goes to show how appreciative and united a growing community as diverse as Crown Heights can be. To beat the heat, snow cones are being handed out at a fast rate while volunteers spritz fatigued children. Fire fighters have just arrived on the scene to open up a hydrant-establishing a make shift sprinkler. For the adult crowd, souvenir Kids Day shirts, which double as an homage to the sponsors, are available in a variety of sizes. For those who aren’t here to see this seemingly magical event to unravel there’s still time to experience it for yourself!

*Update: The Experience Unisex Salon located on Franklin Avenue and Sterling Place has just donated 35 bags of ice just in time to prevent a snow cone shortage! We would like to officially thank you!

The Chronicles of About Time going Green (Chapter 1)

About Time Boutique has finally decided to Go Green! The Chronicles of this Journey will be documented, photographed and shared with the public via blog postings of literature and pictures. About Time Boutique is 100% about the community and giving back to the community, therefore the process of going green was inevitable. We are overjoyed at the prospect of sharing this journey with our readers. Please stay tuned and enjoy the journey with us!

Below is the Press Release announcing our decision to go green.

"Just in time ABOUT TIME BOUTIQUE decides to go green.


(May 26, 2010) The environmentally conscious owner of About Time Boutique, Kevin Phillips, has finally decided to join the Green movement. Phillips prides himself on keeping abreast of current events and being a conscious member of his community having participated in countless charity events to benefit his community; so it was imminent that he would eventually take his company green. The recent oil spill in the Gulf persuaded him to speed up the process of producing his t-shirts in an organic manner. He has decided to forgo the use of PVC based ink and will begin using water based ink; which is eco-friendly and keeps the t-shirt design aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

Not only is he doing the environment a service, he is also on the cutting edge of the Green movement in his area of Brooklyn, NY. There are not many stores in the area, which have decided to be on the cusp of this new Green movement. The benefits of using water based ink are plentiful and uncomplicated to obtain. When using water based ink, there are no toxic fumes being released into the atmosphere, which was a great concern for Phillips because his immediate atmosphere is his workspace. Also, the screens can be easily cleaned with water and can safely go down the drain because they are no more harmful that your normal household cleaners. While these two facts are extremely important, the selling point for Phillips was that the use of water based ink will not diminish the quality of his t-shirts. The colors of water based ink are more vibrant, the ink itself is extremely durable, and lightweight which will provide optimum comfort to the wearer.


About Time Boutique is ecstatic to provide customers with an environmentally friendly alternative to t-shirt wearing, while still keeping the designs fashion-forward and street savvy. "
