I’m Loving: Organic by John Patrick

Beauty and ethics; those are the two things John Patrick’s eco-conscious line, Organic, seeks to combine.  Everything about the New York-based designer’s clothing reflects an Earthy tone and feel rooted in minimalism and the merging of structure and fluidity.  Mixing neutral tones with deep, rich colors, as well as directional pieces with classic silhouettes, the clothing […]

I’m Loving: UK Brand Whistles

A minimalist UK brand that has the aesthetic of Zara (albeit pricier–few brands beat Zara’s look-for-less quality/value) and free shipping to the U.S.?  I’m totally down with that. The brand caught my eye with that “feminin” french sweater, which I was able to get my hands on right before it sold out (thanks for the birthday […]

Things I’m Craving This Fall: Green, Moto, Leather, and Cutout

It’s still hot as Hell in SoCal, so I’m actually just craving temperatures that allow me to be fully clothed.  Not the ideal atmosphere for a girl who’s addicted to sweaters. But cool weather or not, here are the things I’m eyeing as we head into my favorite season. 1. Dark Green Fall’s color palette […]

plaid fashion trend 2013, theory pants, zara dress, madewell jacket

It’s a Plaid, Plaid, Plaid World

(I bet I’m totally the first person to use that wordplay, right?) Tartan plaid is doing its best to edge out Spring’s windowpane trend for Fall, but I think the two can share the season.  Plaid is something I saw enough of as a kid (I had a kilt!), and now I’m falling in love with […]

pale pink fashion trend 2013

Pale Pink is the New Mint

I know everyone keeps talking up white (and judging from New York Fashion Week, that isn’t likely to change for Spring), but I’m more interested in the powder puff pink that’s stepping out this season. As predicted on the runways in January, pale pink coats, sweaters, trousers, and loafers are evidence that this Fall everyone’s […]

On Color: Are there any rules anymore?

  There was apparently a time when black and brown couldn’t be worn together, but that’s ancient history.  The past two years, red and pink were everywhere together, longtime feuding members of the same color family that were blissfully united.  And people have been breaking the “no white after labor day” rule for a while, […]

Zara plaid coat leather sleeves

Zara outerwear makes me wish LA would get cold.

I miss cold weather only because I miss all the coats I could be stocking up on right now.  With a good coat and a great pair of boots, it doesn’t even really matter (too much) what you have on underneath.  It could be a Hanes tee and jeans, but your flawless wool coat, statement […]

Pajama chic trend

Pajama Chic: Making your Walk of Shame less obvious since 2013!

I ignored the pajama trend at first because I figured it was initiated by chic stay-at-home moms.  Or something.  Back in January, I came about thisclose to buying a silk shirt that resembled pajamas and decided against it because surely that couldn’t actually be a lasting thing?! But I was wrong.  I understand the pajama […]
