Tom Baxter illustrates the delectable ice cream cones with these equally delectable ensembles, thanks AnOther mag.  Even if a little melts on the my shirt, I wont have to worry about a stain.

Hope everyone is well and enjoying the holiday season. Its been hectic here, and looking forward to the weekend. Love and miss…

mirror affect














I. have. never.  Seen a cooler way to advertise sunglasses.  Sass and Bide did it with style, class and charisma.  Featuring staple shapes with interesting detailing, I am tempted to purchase the whole line. I mean, I NEED them right?
After a semi-wild night (more busy than wild)- from work event to the awesome Ultraista- whom did not go on until 10:45PM on a school night, I could definitely be rocking some of these shades today.

fall over in comfort







110% awesome. I love it awesome. Like, just what I was thinking awesome. You should know from here my love for camo and here from my love for denim.  This line from Scotch and Soda is the perfect medium combining the two. Doesn’t it just look soooo comfy?

show package





 


Work has been crazy this week and last trying to put together a photoshoot for our classic band merchandise.  This is task I have yet to undertake in my career and it has been stressing me out! Trying to find a photographer, models, and lock down a location aint easy folks.  I am finally getting to a point where I feel comfortable and confident they everything will come out well- even though all the plans keep changing.  I'm working on keeping a cool head. 

Watch the video of this show package put together from Trendland. Really, the video is especially awesome- watch it.

great tips from very...



 The Autumn Wardrobe Guide
Sadly the summer months have transformed into winter - and with the cooler season comes the need for a new wardrobe. Autumn brings with it unpredictable weather conditions, making choosing the right outfit for the day a tricky process.

For anyone struggling to bridge the gap between summer frocks and winter coats, here is the ultimate guide for dressing during the autumn months.

Maxi dresses
Just because the temperature is cooling down, it doesn’t mean you need to say goodbye to your love of dresses. Whether it’s for the office, a night out or casual wear for the day time, there is a great range of dresses currently available on the racks that are suitable for the cooler months.

Maxi dresses are a great option; perfect for warmer days and easy to pair with leggings and denim jackets. A pair of leggings will also make any of your smaller summer frocks wearable for a few more weeks at least.

Leather jackets
Biker grunge is making a comeback. Leather jackets are fast taking over last season’s love of denim and are perfect to pair with floral prints and bright coloured trousers in red or pink.

The key to making the leather jacket work is all in the quality of the product. Steer clear of ‘pleather’ (plastic-leather) and consider it an investment purchase. In terms of shape, avoid the matrix look and opt for a fitted style over length.

Pastels
Pastels are still in fashion, with colour blocking a huge favourite with the high street stores. These loud colours are ideal for the cooler months and help keep a wardrobe bright and fun as the layers begin to pile on.

Don’t be afraid to blend less traditional colour combos; with bright pastel yellows, oranges and pinks all dominating the shelves at the moment. This is a great option for adding some life to the office wardrobe, with a pastel pink or green top or skirt helping you to stand out in the boardroom environment.

Capri cropped trousers
If you’re reluctant to swap the denim shorts for the jeans, the cropped trouser is a great middle ground. These three quarter length items are perfect for creating a chic European style when paired with nautical stripes in the office. Alternatively, cropped trousers are great in bright block colours like cherry red, or fun and funky floral prints. These make a great day to nightwear item and are able to be worn both in the office and on a night out with the right accessories. 

Thank you Very for these fantastic style ideas!

lana rocks my world




Seriously. And so does her new song, "Rise" which is part of the the re-release of last year's album 'Born to Die"- an album I have listened to on repeat more times than I would like to admit .  Dude, she is so cool- her style, her music, her energy- she is hot and that just all that needs to be said.

fashion in music history














So of course we know the songs, but don’t you also remember the outfits too? They are almost as legendary as the music, almost.  Check out these geometric images from High Snob.  As you know I am working in a new industry, the music industry, and its so different over here.  There are parties, events, free stuff, lunches (and dinners!) and the people actually like each other, who wudda thunk it?!?  Quite refreshing coming from a very different background in fashion.  And hey- we are still fashionable too!

Last night one of our vendors had a event to celebrate the opening of one of their new East Coast distribution centers.  There were mini crabcakes, shrimp cocktail, cocktails, and tee-shirts. Oh yeah, and Bruce Jenner, you know, Kim and Kourtney's dad- but also the winner of the '76 track and field Olympic Games. He talked about his inspiration, his goals (past and present) among his 10 children and other things.  All-in-all an interesting night with a great view and a great crew.  I love my co-workers!

Have a wonderful weekend- until next week.  Xx
