Post image for Denim Review: 7 For All Mankind Cropped Skinny in Purple Ikat

This whole printed jeans thing is really taking off, isn’t it? It’s not just sartorially adventurous editors and quirky bloggers who are getting in on the action – but living, breathing people on the streets. Sometimes it takes a while for a trend to move from the fashion scene to the neighborhood scene, but floral [...]

What I Wore: Denim in Washington D.C.

Post image for What I Wore: Denim in Washington D.C.

Over the weekend I took a short trip down to Washington D.C. with Meghan, my darling friend and the fashionable voice behind Wit & Whimsy. We stayed in Georgetown, but took time to cruise a few museums, crane our necks to see the Washington Monument and indulge at some local restaurants. I hadn’t been to [...]

Post image for Denim Review: 7 For All Mankind Gwenevere Skinny Jeans

Blame it on weight fluxuation, blame it on the age of some of my denim, but for a long time I’ve been lacking that pair of jeans. You know the ones. The ones you put on when you feel fat. The ones you put on when you have no idea what else to wear. The [...]

Winter Denim Pairings: The Tweed Jacket

Post image for Winter Denim Pairings: The Tweed Jacket

As I’ve mentioned many a time before, I am not a born-and-bread East Coast-er. I’m from Seattle and have lived most of my life on the left coast. With the flattening of the world through internet, television and, hey, blogs – you’d think that by this point style would be pretty homogeneous from San Francisco [...]

Post image for Denim Inspiration: The Affordable “Suede” Jean

By Ann of Holier than Now Good news: this sueded pant board was reversed-inspired.  Rather than my usual process of obsessing over something that’s out of stock or out of reach, I actually found and fell in love with brushed twill jeans and realized I could style them like a real suede pant. Brushed twill [...]

In this crazy, I-feel-like-I-know-you-but-I’ve-never-met-you world we call the blog-o-sphere, there are many stylish women whose personal style, editorial flair and sunglasses collection I admire. Alicia, of Cheetah Is The New Black, is one such blogger. Her style is right in the sweet spot between achievable and aspirational, which adds up to totally inspirational. I finally [...]

It’s That Time Of Year: Spring Collections

Post image for It’s That Time Of Year: Spring Collections

There’s nothing in the world like Fashion Week in New York City. Seemingly out of nowhere, the streets are bustling with well-heeled editors, restaurants are packed with (even more) chic clientele and my Twitter feed is completely overrun with updates and photos from the shows. Trying to keep up with the dozens (hundreds?) of shows [...]

Denim Review: 7 For All Mankind ‘Josefina’

by taylordavies on August 26, 2011

Post image for Denim Review: 7 For All Mankind ‘Josefina’

When the boyfriend jean trend first emerged a few years ago, I was very hesitant to give them a try. My usual denim style (and my style in general) leans towards a much more tailored and slim silhouette. When I tried on most pairs, I found that my figure was lost in a distressed wash [...]

Denim Review: Bell Bottoms for Petites

seven bell bottom jeans flared denim petite denim

In my mind, I’m average height. In reality, I’m shorter than average. My delusions extended to rationalizations like: “They” just make jeans so long because they want to accommodate the occasional leggy amazon, and “they” should! With skinny jeans and straight leg jeans, it’s never really been that much of a problem, however, when it [...]

Trend: Go Double Wide (& Double Your Money)

wide leg denim trend

By Ann of Holier than Now I’m a huge vintage fanatic – especially when it comes to looks that transport me to the late 60’s.  I was certainly born in the wrong decade, because there’s nothing I love more than a throwback jean, a leather sandal, a baggy white tee, and messy braids Inspired by [...]
