Pretty Grunge
This vintage floral skirt that I found at a thrift shop a few years ago and altered has been a trusty fall-back item. Black tee, leather jacket, skirt, boom. Instant outfit. I paired my vintage floral skirt with a black peplum t-shirt from Forever21. The flare at the waist of the shirt in combination with … Read more
Fall 2012 Photoshoot
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
Inspired By: Boardwalk Empire
“They were smart and sophisticated, with an air of independence about them, and so casual about their looks and clothes and manners as to be almost slapdash. I don’t know if I realized as soon as I began seeing them that they represented the wave of the future, but I do know I was drawn … Read more

Nature Punk

Rather than attempt to summarize what she’s all about, here’s an excerpt in her own words: Conserving the world’s natural spaces and the creatures … Read more
Lollapalooza in Pictures
I’ve gone to Lollapalooza five years running and each and every time is a completely unique experience. I’d count 2012 as the best one yet. Day One I wore a Nasty Gal floral crop shirt with DIY shredded high waisted denim shorts and harness boots. I accessorized with cocktail rings, a Rusted Revolution Holster handpiece, … Read more

Blogger Spotlight: Marlen
Marlen is a friend of mine from Chicago, and lately I’ve been seriously envying her style — nostalgic and pretty. Her day job is being an assistant, but after hours she pursues other interests of writing and styling. She says that she’s been reading Vogue since she was old enough to scrounge up $4. She … Read more
Garage Sale
Every June, the Chicago neighborhood I grew up in has an amazing garage sale. This year I made a point of getting up super early (even though it’s a Saturday) and went walking up and down the alleys with my mom. A lot of people turn their noses up a garage sales, thrift stores, and … Read more
