Rad Livin’: Meet Jess and Taylah

Tuesday // May 26 // 2015

Discovering Jess and Taylah was like finding the definition of a DontTellSummer gal. They’re young, they’re free and making moves to do what completely excites them. Combining their passions for creativity and ocean conservation, Tidal Magazine was created. Through Tidal, their goals are to ensure that the talent of their generation is noticed, as well as raise funds and awareness for ocean conservation. There is a wide range of content in each mag and while non-exclusive (which we love!) it particularly focuses on surf, skate, art, fashion, music and culture.

As Jess and Taylah like to say, “Tidal is a huge assembly of young people making things happen” (we just got chills).

Passion, fire, adventure… all sparkling through Deb Widdick’s eyes. She’s a traveler, dreamer and the founder of Globelle Travels.

As you know, we LOVE young people supporting other young people in making their dreams happen, and that’s why we love the Globelle Travels brand and community. They are all about female travelers supporting other female travelers, through sharing their stories, celebrating their achievements, and inspiring others to take to the road.

Aside from their inspiring photos, what drew us in the most was the authenticity and depth behind each post. From just one photo, you can feel the message and passion behind the screen. We’re excited to introduce you to Debs as she shares about taking risks, funding dreams and going for something you would love to create.

Rad Livin’: Meet Tess Willcox

Sunday // May 10 // 2015

I remember scrolling through Pinterest about two years ago when I came across a photo of the coolest hand-painted skateboards I’d ever seen. Finding them kind of felt like when you discover a song that you’ve never heard of, and you instantly feel cool just from having the knowledge of such a wonderful thing. I clicked through to see who was behind these soulful decks, and that’s where I found Tess.

When I think of DTS ambassador Tess Willcox, two words come to mind: Fucking free. She’s a leader, vision seeker, creator and dreamer and just so happens to have created one of the raddest brands in the world, Ámes Collective. Ámes (pronounced ah-mez) specializes in custom soul deck skateboards, Moroccan interior collections, and leather goodies. Tess created her dream brand out of a love of imperfection and to embrace the simplicity in life. Like her skateboards, Tess is a wild, heart-driven, free soul full of stories and depth and we can’t wait to introduce you to her.
