How To Wear White

Mar 28.11 / Lindsay

White was everywhere last autumn as the spring collections came down the runway. From influential new designers like Alexander Wang (whose collection I am moderately obsessed with) to super-edgy designers like Rick Owens and Ann Demeulemeester to classic luxury designers like Bottega Veneta, Chloe and Thakoon – every was basking in the brightest of whites.

I’m Wearing: Ice Cold Milk

Feb 22.11 / Jennifer Nicole

The scene: a typical Seattle pre-Spring day.  It’s cold, it’s windy, and at any moment it could rain…but the sky is clear and the sun is bright. Which means I should wear a coat; I just don’t wanna. One winter, I had this trip planned. To Mexico. You know, where it’s warm and sunny and [...]

Left My Soul There [By The Sea]

Dec 23.10 / Lindsay

Today on Awakened Aesthetic, Jen posted about drawing inspiration from the sea – something that I always assumed I did inherently, involuntarily, and intrinsically as a product of a sailboat builder & racer, and an fierce lover of strange, underwater creatures – not to mention a loving daughter of the left coast. Jen got reminded [...]

Only 2 Months Left

Jun 18.10 / Lindsay

I’ve never really been sure what the deal was with “No White After Labor Day”, but I’ve never really worn white, so I didn’t really care. Aside from leaving my crisp linen suits in the not-my closet, I’ve always thought the idea of white footwear was kind of disturbing. Admittedly, I own some… Which I’m [...]

ColorPlay: Orange with Black and White

Mar 28.09 / Lindsay

Photo by RedupReda I thought ColorPlay should start having some photo inspiration… Color is one of the fiercest points of photographs; the absence of it, the over-saturation, the sepia tones, the combinations… They all play an emotional part in photographs, so why shouldn’t they affect our emotional output as well? We’re inching, stretching, aching, dreaming… [...]

What’s White, Black, and Red All Over?

Jan 31.08 / Lindsay

UPDATE 2/7/08: Links fixed, sorry!! xoxo. While you might read this headline and cringe from the memories brought up of junior high school and the onslaught of dead baby jokes or whatnot. . . Colorblocked or themed wardrobes and coming out of the closet (pun!) as chic, bold and just plain attractive. Taking a page [...]

SAG Dress Trends: Winter White, Grey & Blue

Jan 29.08 / Lindsay

So this year’s SAG Awards actually had people attend! Who knew that’d be so exciting someday? While there were a rainbow of colors present, the most stunning were the ice-princess color trio of white, grey, and chilly blue. Ellen Pompeo wears a silver-grey velvet Nina Ricci dress… It’s such a new, yet classic look. I [...]

The Importance of a Pencil Skirt

Jan 04.08 / Lindsay

Model Micheline Love Pencil skirts are a timeless classic, and definitely staple in today’s woman’s wardrobe. They’ve been around for decades and, judging by the fact that they’re still here – they’re not going anywhere. Re-popularized by the rockabilly and secretarial crew, pretty much any figure can pull off a pencil skirt – and pull [...]
