You ever have an item of clothing that you absolutely had to wear everywhere, no matter if it was appropriate for the occasion? In middle school, I had a pair of watermelon-print socks that I insisted on wearing with rolled up flare jeans. In high school, when ballet flats had a major revival, I insisted on wearing … Read more

2012-09-11 19.28.52

Just after Rusted Revolution’s second birthday, we found ourselves reunited in Chicago for the first time since Coachella, back in April. Having been apart for several months, we were eager to catch up and explore the foodie side of Lincoln Park — but we found time to mix in a little bit of the business. … Read more

The highly anticipated “festival fashion” post is here. Let us assure you, ladies and gents, we saw some damn good outfits and were able to capture most of them – but this was not without effort.

We couldn’t have asked for better weather on Day Three of Coachella’s first weekend. It was a glorious 80 something degrees, so naturally, the four of us (Lesley, Lucy, Paulina, and Celby) made the most of the pool that morning.

POOLSIDE LIVIN’

Check out Australian blogger/model Alexandra Spencer (of 4th and Bleeker) in her photoshoot for Free People‘s late January Lookbook.  The styling is pretty sick; I’m digging the grungey-glam vibe peppered with touches of East meets West.  Gotta love Alexandra’s collection of shades….neon wayfarers, crimson hearts and studded owl eyes.  Damn this makes me crave warm … Read more

Buy A Pair Give A Pair

Apparently I was the only person on the planet who hadn’t heard of this until two days ago. But on the off-chance that I’m not, I want to share this amazing charitable idea with all of you: Warby Parker promises to donate a pair of glasses to someone in need for every pair purchased from … Read more
