I Caught The Fever

Feb 16.10 / Lindsay

There are two things bringing me to my knees this week: 1) Influenza. I hate calling it “The Flu” – it is not a gangster rapper, it is a highly respectable illness that has captured the lives of many people. Not a particularly cheery thought, but it is more hardcore than “The Flu”, it’s f**king [...]

Jenny Han: Just In Time for Tea

Jan 14.10 / Lindsay

As we all know, my true love obsession with Bad Joan is ever-present. The more designers they add, the more I adore them. The more categories they cover, the more I swoon. The smallest adjustments made to their inventory have me on my toes and, yes, there was someone named “Joan” in my dream last [...]

ON Outerwear

Nov 06.09 / Lindsay

ON ( Old Navy ) is having a major outerwear sale this week, and after walking home in the 500mph wind this morning, I’m at least interested in hearing what they have to say. Wool-Blend Funnel-Neck Coat $44.75 (was $89.50) This is amazing and beautiful. I need it. I can’t believe this is from Old [...]

I’m Wearing: Fancy Coffee Garb

Feb 17.09 / Lindsay

Sometimes, you wake up on a Tuesday morning, catch up on all your blogs, and then… You’re kind of left with nothing. Fortunately, I’ve always been pretty good at making my own fun/content/mistakes/catalysts, so what would be better than dressing up simply to walk three blocks to the coffee shop? I can’t think of anything [...]

I’m Craving: Long, Fingerless Gloves

Feb 01.09 / Lindsay

I know I just finished hating hard on the whole “homeless” look, but I think that the idea of fingerless opera gloves, or whatever you want to call them, are SO appealing! I’d wear them under 1/2 and 3/4 sleeve jackets, or kimono-sleeve… anything! I think that I would stray from the chunky-knit ones, though… [...]

Making the Transition: Short-Sleeved Turtlenecks

Jan 16.09 / Lindsay

I know, I know – it’s January 16th and I’m already talking about spring. Don’t think I don’t understand how strange it must be, considering the right outside my windows, -8 degree air slowly frosts my windowpanes. Trust me – there’s a reason for my sub-zero madness! Many of the fall essentials are going on [...]

The Pink Dress Gets Another Chance

Nov 23.08 / Lindsay

Prior to the fall/winter season of 2008, the pink dress got a bad rap. Either it was Betsey Johnson and therefore kitschy, or it was ultra-Lolita and immature to don a petal-pink dress – particularly during spring. But now that the plants are dying and the temperature’s dropping, pink is conditioning itself for another go, [...]

Get a Whole New Wardrobe for $60-$80!

Sep 30.08 / Lindsay

It’s time to shop for winter – I get it. I’ve been blasted with every newsletter conceivable screaming “BUY THIS LONG SLEEVED CASHMERE DRESS!” “DON’T FORGET KNEE HIGH BOOTS!” “GET THESE SCARVES ASAP!” … Okay! I get it! Cold, brr… Need warm clothing! New wardrobe for fall and winter! Need! Jeez! But, as we all [...]

If the glove fits…

Sep 17.08 / Lindsay

You’re in luck! You ought to buy them, as they’ve become very stylish for winter. Whether they’re cashmere, cotton, leather, or faux – they class up any ensemble with the flick of the (gloved) wrist. From Bluefly: Portolano Leather Cashmere-Lined Gloves $95 $50 Portolano Black Leather Long Gloves $145 $87 From ShopBop: Alice + Olivia [...]

You might find the night time the right time for kissing…

Dec 03.07 / Lindsay

The winter-time offers us some… more limited options as far as evening wear. Going out dancing in the summer boasts sleeveless tops and strapless dresses, but when the snow is falling, it’s a bit more difficult to ooze elegance without oozing frostbite, too. (Is that even possible?!) So how are we, the broke and beautiful [...]
