High Rollers: That Turtleneck Trend
Remember when turtlenecks were the stereotypical sartorial choice of the artsy foreign exchange student of questionable sexuality circa 1976? No? Great! Then you’ll have no problem cozying up with the latest trend. Turtlenecks. What can you say about them? The mainstream deems them uncool one minute and trendy the next, then back and forth again. I’ve […]
Feeling (Baby) Blue
First mint, then pink–apparently we can’t get enough of pastels. The latest Easter egg hue to step into the spotlight is the binary of last season’s blushing pink, and in the interest of all things soft and fluffy, I approve. Donning baby blue will make you feel as if you’re wearing a cloud–or attending an anti-climactic […]
Summer Trends to Love: Sheer Panels, High Necks, Birkenstocks(!), and More
It’s finally summer, which means less clothing and more skin–although, ironically, it also means restocking your wardrobe with all the requisite apparel. Sheer Paneling Because everyone loves playing the peekaboo game right now, but not all of us are Rihanna. High Necks/Square Necks The perfect way to balance out the ubiquitous crop top, not […]
Welcome Back, White (Even Though You Never Left)
Memorial weekend is almost upon us, which means the unofficial inauguration of summer and the celebration of all things related–hot dogs, American flags, day-drinking, and white clothing. The past year has been a year for rule-breaking, sartorially speaking, so if you’ve been wearing white all through the winter, don’t fret; Memorial weekend is simply another […]

I was correct–even more so than I could have imagined, considering the pink coat trend seems to have spread like wildfire–but I could have gone one step further to say that pink is the new everything. The pale, bubblegum shade of […]
Smells Like Teen Spirit
I thought we had already done the whole 90s grunge thing a couple years ago–and, ya know, in the 90s. But I was working for Urban Outfitters at the time of this supposed revival, so I may just be confused. I know the angsty Seattle rocker look never really left the West Coast in general, […]
Fall Staple: The Leather Skirt
High-waisted, pencil, A-line, midi, mini–this fall, we’re loving it all. In leather, that is. We’ve already established that leather details are in this season (as if they were ever really out), and while the leather coat is a timeless staple, this season, it’s all about the leather skirt. A soft, supple, yet sturdy leather skirt […]
Put That on a Sweater and Wear It: Graphic Sweatshirts
The graphic crew neck sweatshirt trend is still going strong from last year, and I’m totally on board, but it makes me wish I had the motivation/creativity to buy cotton crew necks and put clever words and phrases on them. I like how, depending on the graphic, there’s potential to turn a casual sweatshirt into […]
