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

I’ve been really into “trousers” lately. I guess calling them something other than pants makes me feel more grown up and sophisticated. Truth is, 23 is an awkward age when you’re both too young and too old. I try to remedy this situation with my wardrobe — mixing classic, adult pieces with edgier, youthful trends. … Read more

Bought a sweater that a little kid would love just as much as a grown man. I paired a Forever 21 monster graphic sweater (two sizes too big) with skinny leather trousers from Topshop for a look that is comfy but pulled together. The Cooperative beanie I’m wearing is my absolute favorite, and the pointed … Read more

Rocking three of fall’s most predominant trends — snakeskin print, ox blood, and a monochromatic color scheme. WHAM. I got this sweater at LF Boston on my trip out there to visit my boyfriend a couple weeks ago. There’s no LF in Chicago (LF peeps, if you’re out there reading this, PLEASE PLEASE open one here), so … Read more

Today was an unseasonably warm Sunday for Chicago in November — 67 degrees. I was actually sweating in this outfit. Alas that tomorrow it’s supposed to plunge into the 30s. Bye bye indian summer for good. Mixing prints has become a favorite outfit staple. Both leopard and camo are the new blacks this season, so I … Read more

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

Lucy here – I’ve go 3 hot names in the rap game on my radar that y’all best be watching out for. One thing I love about the industry is its turnover – the rapid cycle of emerging talent. It seems that not long after an artist establishes himself, another is there to take his … Read more

It was difficult to pry ourselves out of bed on Friday morning, but thoughts of poolside lounging, mimosas, and in Lesley’s case, Egg’s Benedict was motivation enough. After a tasty breakfast at the hotel restaurant, we hit the road and jetted towards Indio; we wanted to get to the festival grounds at around noon so … Read more

We are seriously stoked on the artists at this year’s Coachella; this particular festival brings out some serious fashionistas, but the event is, after all, about the music. This year’s show boasts one of the most impressive lineups in festival history (according to sales reports). Listen along with us to the songs we’ve had on … Read more
