Shop The LOOK
The 80s are not going anywhere, at least for a while. Let’s embrace it. I’m really starting to love this look of STRONG shoulders and cut outs are finding a little place in my heart as well (post to come on this soon.) H & M has some really great options right now in stores.
1. Ssense
2. Nasty Gal

4. H & M
5. Shopbop
6. Pixie Market – Paul and Alice
I want most of this wonderful collection! All ranging around the 30 dollar mark. Rediculous. Mixing classics with trend pieces for less is the way to go. Especially when we have pieces to chose from like these!
How adorable does Liz look here in H & M’s Garden Collection dress, perfectly mixing it with a Chanel vintage clutch and vintage looking accessories? She’s based in San Francisco and runs Late Afternoon. She has a beautiful blog and has great style.
Every Sunday I dedicate a post to men’s fashion. A well dressed man can say a lot, without saying a word. I appreciate all great designs and it seems a lot more guys these days are taking a liking for fashion just the way many of us women do. I love that.
Friend and designer Brandon Scott is one designer I’m excited to see go places. B:Scott presented his Winter 2010 last Monday for LA Fashion Week. Formerly the designer at Rebecca Beeson’s men’s line B.Son, Scott branched off to launch his own collection B:Scott. Smart move, this man has talent. You’ll find structure and detailing on his pieces with a minimalistic approach.  He is known for fusing German and Japanese aesthetics with a West Coast flare and his hoodies and cardigan have been holding strong from season to season.

Chloe in Harper’s Bazaar Russia April 2010
Style icon and actress Chloe Sevigny posed for Harper’s Bazaar Russia April 2010. Inspired by Alice in Wonderland, photographer Pavel Havlicek captrure Chloe in a dreamland of whimsical clothing, tea cups for hats, and leafed animal giants looking behind her. She inspires me. She’s so cool and seems so real.

The owner and designer of By Robert James, just happen to look outside one day last week….
Yeah, just an average day in New York City. Man, I love that place. I need to become bi-coastal…soon.

Not only will you find one of a kind hand-picked vintage greatness, but also sweet on trend indie clothing and apartment tchockes for a reasonable price. These are some of my current favorites. Oversized cardigans, floral amazingess, wedges, sweet little frames to personalize your home, and vintage purses (all of these from $25-$84!)
