This release could be the ultimate in back-to-school shopping, at least for preteens and Gleeks. Macy’s is dropping an exclusive Glee-inspired fashion line for fall, so that you can now dress as your favorite characters. There are track suits, Glee logo tees, faded baseball and vintage-washed shirts, and a WMHS jersey t-shirt, and at $20-35 [...]

Who else makes cargo pants?
JBrand’s Houlihan cargo pants. You know them. Everyone has them: SJP, Rachel Bilson, Rihanna, Lindsay Lohan, and Jessica Alba practically lives in hers (Pink Mascara doesn’t even waste time listing: their product page simply says “…as seen on Jessica Alba + many others). I get the appeal: you know I’m a JBrand girl, and I’m [...]

The bit–, er, banker’s back
Just after news that Wall Street is hiring again, Gap’s got this awesome button up, called the Banker Shirt. To be honest, it’s probably been out for a while since it’s already on sale (ironic), but it comes in pink and a dark royal blue pinstripe, just like something Patrick Bateman or Shia Labeouf’s new [...]

Big red
I had two pairs of red skinny jeans sent to my inbox today: one pair of JBrands via RueLaLa, and another from Rag & Bone, from a Barneys blast. My two favorite brands of jeans are JBrand and Rag & Bone (I only have one pair of Rag & Bones that I bought waaaay on [...]

From the other side: Jorts
I was sick most of last week, but even though I wasn’t posting regularly, that doesn’t mean that I wasn’t keeping my hand in, as Holly Golightly would say. You all know my side of the jean shorts debate, but here’s a little jewel I found from my dear friend Alexis, who has been anti- [...]

Black cutout lace: then and now
Remember Reese Witherspoon’s black Valentino that she wore to the Oscars when she was still Mrs. Phillippe? And within the last week, Serena VDW and SJP have brought it back on TV and on the red carpet. It was about time!

Would you wear denim on denim?
In the 90s and early 2000s, it was the ultimate sin, but as soft, light-wash denim button-ups become spring obsessions, has the aesthetic changed? Sienna contrasted a traditional jean vest with darker skinny jean, Reese favored a light-wash button-up with dark jeans tucked into boots, equestrian style, and blogger Katie Wood pointed out an Elle [...]

Have you embraced the jumpsuit?
Last spring, when jumpsuits and rompers appeared, I was ecstatic. Most versions were cute and seasonal, and could be dressed up or down with a change of shoes only. It was like the dress, but better, because you wouldn’t have to cross your legs all the time. A year later, I still haven’t gotten one. [...]
