In these times of trend-heavy denim collections, I often can’t decide how I feel about a certain trend. I have to let it marinate for a while before I can make a call. Floral denim, for example? When I started seeing it at the previews in the fall, I was conflicted. Is this too 90s? [...]

By Ann of Holier than Now I reached a certain somewhat ripe “old” age a few weeks ago, and although we know it ain’t nuthin but a number, I did have a certain shift in consciousness when it comes to what’s in my closet. Of course, having a birthday on the cusp of Spring is great [...]

By Ann of Holier than Now So I had an unfortunate incident this weekend that involved fully throwing a perfectly good pair of jeans in the garbage. It involved someone aged 3 with a problem of the tummy variety – we’ll leave it at that. In any case, I now have an excuse to ponder the [...]

Before you roll your eyes and write me off as taking this whole denim thing just a little too far, take a minute to consider the possibilities. First of all, wedges [...]

With some many great printed denim options for Spring/Summer, it’s inspiring to think of monochromatic blends like these street style gems. (It’s also an [...]

My dad once told me, when I first started dating in high school and I would fret for hours over what to wear, that he thought my mom never looked better than when she wore jeans and a white button down shirt. For some reason that’s something I’ve never forgotten. As a blog that aims [...]

By Ann of Holier than Now Our psychotic Spring weather here in NY is certainly motivation to take a cue from the boys – wear pants, and layer up! Although I was never a huge fan of the boyfriend jeans look, I’m inspired by the New Bohemian mood of these street style shots (especially the new silhouette of [...]

By Ann of Holier than Now Ok, I guess it’s official. After my post on the ripped Acne jean skirt whet my appetite for all things denim and destroyed, I stumbled upon these street style images celebrating the ripped denim jacket!

By Ann of Holier than Now I was lucky enough to take this huge Spring trend for a test drive in the depths of Winter, because my sister brought me back a pair offloral pants from Japan. Although to me these pants seemed like a no-brainer – so on-trend, so obviously right – I get a crazy [...]

By Ann of Holier than Now You may have seen Garance’s recent post on the torn denim trend, in which one look jumped off the page for me: this ripped denim skirt. I’ve since stumbled upon it on several street style blogs and I can’t get enough of the brilliant contrast it embodies. One part sophisticated lady-who-lunches, [...]

By Ann of Holier than Now Here in NYC, it’s been one Spring forward and two steps back with this bipolar weather! So in honor of the Spring that’s not here … yet … I’m going to indulge in some Spring/Summer outfit inspiration!
