How many more times do you think you can hear the phrase “pop of color” before you just can’t take it anymore? I love what it means – taking a basic outfit and jazzing it up with a bold and colorful piece – but the expression is starting to make my stomach turn just a [...]

By Crissie Fuller You’ve probably noticed by now, but neon is coming back in a big way. I tried to avoid it (I have some rough memories of mullets and neon spandex from the 80s… ) But then a pair of neon yellow jeans called to me. You know the call, the one you can [...]

Love is in the air… Everywhere I look around… Love is in the air… Every sight and every sound… I mean, right? Remember that song? It puts me in a good mood, and is obviously rather perfect for today, our most sacred holiday of love. Now, I’ve been single on Valentine’s Day every year since [...]

By Ann of Holier than Now So … When I was about 11 I had a plain black t-shirt. It was simple and versatile and I liked wearing it with the one pair of jeans I owned. One day, I went to transfer it from washer to dryer and it was just … gone. My mom [...]

I know this isn’t something I’m supposed to say on this blog – but sometimes I feel like I have too many pairs of jeans. Not too many because I don’t want them (clearly I can’t resist) but too many because I have a seriously difficult time picking out a pair each day. Which dark [...]

Little words like beaucoup, magnifique and pain-au-chocolat have been in my vocabulary for decades. When I spent time in Paris in high school and college, I fell deeply and irrevocably in love with the [...]

The best thing to happen to fashion in the last decade has been the near-complete destruction of “rules.” You know, never wear this with that, certain colors for certain seasons… That’s all gone out the window and ushered in an anything goes age of dressing. So on that note, lets talk about pastels. They have [...]

As I stare into the depths of my closet each morning, I think the one thing I keep coming back to over the colder months is how to keep things interesting. It really is easier said than done, and to be sure, sometimes you just don’t have the energy to get experimental. However, on those [...]

By Ann of Holier than Now Do you remember when this fresh purple burst on the scene as a “trend” color? I think it had something to do with Michelle Obama; it’s definitely a modern royal shade. Seems it was more than a passing fad though, as evidenced by these street style sightings. When [...]

By Ann of Holier than Now So I don’t know about you guys, but I always spend the last days of the year cleaning out my closet, throwing things in bags to sell or donate, and generally having a think about what I need (and what sartorial mistakes not to repeat in the coming year). [...]

As you can probably tell from the scenery above, Eat, Sleep, Denim has relocated for the holidays. I’m out west in Sun Valley, Idaho with my family for a week of winter sports, catching up with friends and a whole lot of denim-wearing. I’ve spent every New Years Eve in Sun Valley since before I [...]

I don’t know if you know this, but Wednesday was the official first day of winter. Winter. That’s right, all this frigid cold we’ve had over the past week? That’s just an aggressive “See ya!” from Autumn. Real nice, huh? Anyway, now that we’re really here, lets talk about something we all know to be [...]
