Top 5 Cute Cutoffs: Short Circuit
Cutoff jean shorts might sound like a snob no-no, but on the contrary! A great pair of casual denim shorts is a brilliant way to complete a big, structured tote, nonchalant silk button-down (tucked in or knotted at the waist), and stellar flat sandals for a day of brunching and strolling. Or be daring and [...]
Top Coachella Looks: Music to My Eyes
It’s that time of year again! When all creatures young and wild get down and dirty in the fields of Indio, California. Coachella is more popular than ever, going for two full weekends this year. Which means it’s especially no occasion to play it safe or serious. Find your muse, whether she’s the retro rocker [...]
J Brand’s Spring Jeans: Brand New
Just when you thought there was absolutely nothing new to be done with denim, J Brand unleashes their spring collection. Admittedly, this isn’t the first time we have seen – or sported – leather leggings and paneled jeans. But J Brand’s take on slim-fitting legwear is so fresh it feels trailblazing. Achieve dual-toned neutrality with [...]
How to Wear It: Cropped Sweaters
Ah, the crop top: a look that few master and too many abuse. The cropped sweater has been making a strong showing as of late (the last time we saw so many was in mohair form in the mid-nineties!), but it’s vital to take proportion play into consideration. The key is just a peek of [...]
Top 5 Splashes of Lemon and Lime: I’ll Take Mine with a Twist

Animal-Print Denim: Answer the Call of the Wild
It’s official. With colored denim absolutely everywhere – I’m seeing more crayon brights on the street than blues and blacks these days! – fall’s hottest denim trend has arrived with a roar. Or should I say purr? Prints out of the jungle are taking over our legs, and I’m trusting my animal instincts. So slithering [...]
Summer White Pants: Trip the White Fantastic
Long past Memorial Day and you still haven’t snagged your summer white pants? To slump through the season in dark indigos and even faded blues is kind of sad – a good pair of white pants make the rest of your wardrobe, and even more importantly your bum, pop. So at least have a fresh [...]
Colorful Denim: What’s Your Shade?
Whether they are mega-bright, attention-grabbing, or kind of kooky, these days colored jeans are about as common as classic blues and blacks – and don’t they seem so boring now in comparison? Red recently experienced a major moment (I’ve been enjoying Acne‘s back-zip style), our own Kelly is mad for Current/Elliott‘s Kelly green pair, and [...]
Frugal Snob Simpson Sisters: A Bold Contrast
Guest blog by – Julia DiNardo , the founder/editor of Fashion Pulse Although I wouldn’t quite call myself a huge fan of Jessica or Ashlee Simpson’s music or general fashion choices, I do have to remark that when they are dressed casually, in a simple, paired-down, yet stylish way, I think they look at their [...]
In love with the Love Story
I don’t care what anyone says, the only jeans that make your bum look like luscious muffins without the tops are J. Brand Love Story jeans. I’m serious, they are sooooooo flattering that I bought three pairs last year and they are still my favorite. They are low in the front but a bit higher [...]
