I’m Outta Here!

Dec 23.09 / Lindsay

Ahh, Christmas Eve Eve. A notorious day, commonly spent in a fit of anxiety, rushing from grocer to grocer looking for that damned mustard, or frantically organizing sleeping situations for house guests… Rushing from in-law-home to in-law-home wishing you could just relax before the craziness (at least 200% worse) tomorrow… The magic of the holidays. [...]

Strange Cravings

Dec 02.09 / Lindsay

Sometimes, I’ll glance at a new “trend” and grimace. Occasionally, I’ll raise an eyebrow… But usually, my head and my heart match up as far as opinion. …But sometimes, they don’t. I’m experiencing some inner conflict over my desire to sport lace leggings. As someone who is vehemently against the return of the 1980s, this [...]

Dove Grey

Nov 09.09 / Lindsay

Often times, the subway not only provides adequate transportation, but it also leaves me coveting someone else’s belongings. This time, it was a handbag. This is interesting because, not only do I rarely pay attention to handbags, but I don’t really use one. I have a HOBO Int’l Rachel Wallet that Cleary gave me, and [...]

ECIG: A Cut Above Coins

Sep 30.09 / Lindsay

Long time no see for ECIG, am I right? Well, let me offer my most sincere apologies. I’ve definitely been neglecting this ace category, and that’s gotta stop! Our “Welcome Back” edition of ECIG goes to a Seattle artist named Wally. He runs his Etsy site, A Cut Above Coins, by actually cutting old, foreign [...]

Who Is Jessica Bennet?

Sep 14.09 / Lindsay

This edition of Shoe Porn is dedicated to a designer whose shoes I’ve only recently discovered. Jessica Bennett, who apparently sells her shoes everywhere, and I just haven’t noticed. Awesome. So, her shoes aren’t only affordable, but they’re adorable and, well, a little offbeat (which I love). I originally saw her on Online Shoes but [...]

Earth Week :: Betty Belts!

Apr 22.09 / Lindsay

Sometimes the internet is a wonderful thing. Without it, I never would have stumbled across Betty Belts, by designer Donna van Hoesslin. These belts are not only perfect for Earth Week, but they’re pretty much perfect in every sense of the word. I tracked down Donna to see if she’d answer some of my silly [...]

ECIG: Fatally Feminine

Mar 16.09 / Lindsay

Every (-ish) Monday, I’ve been featuring independent clothing from designers everywhere. Laura Dawson, Erika Hendrix and M641 being some of my favorites. However, when sitting down at my computer this morning (as it precariously teeters on two ancient collapsable TV tray tables we found behind the refrigerator when we moved in), I realized that it’s [...]

Fine Feathered… Heads?

Oct 14.08 / Lindsay

I’ve been seeing little feathery heads popping up not just all over the city or country, but world. These girls wearing headbands adorned with gorgeous plumes remind me of the early 1920′s when women would run rampant with their gin & jazz, taking over the male-dominated music and bar scene by storm, donning their shapeless [...]

Ever Get the Skepticism Blues?

Sep 30.08 / Lindsay

Image By Tom Froese You know… The feeling you get when you find a pair of shoes, jeans, jacket that you really like – it fits you perfectly, looks amazing, you butt is like damn… But you’re too smart a shopper to just take the plunge? Well, thanks to the amazing Chelsea Rae at Pink [...]

SHAPE Magazine Offers Advice on… Shoes?

Sep 29.08 / Lindsay

Most people don’t regard Shape Magazine as a “fashion foward” magazine… But you’d be surprised as the number of amazing tips they give you through their section titled “Look Great”! In this month’s issue, Shape’s monthly “Fashion Workbook” offers up The Shoes You NEED In Your Closet.  Unfortunately, only two examples out of their six [...]
