  18. Does anyone know what happened to Dime Piece LA celebrity streetwear brand? I am having trouble to check out on Dimepiecela site. I’ve read in Women’s Health Mag that the brand was bought out by a UK-based hedge fund for $50m. I’ve just bought the Shatter Ceilings Yoga Duffel from Ebay and absolutely love it xox
