Trendscape: Polka Dots

We just love polka dots. Why? Because they span all seasons and occasions. Polka dot prints are perfect for a summer barbecue, a holiday cocktail party or just another day in the office.  They can be serious or whimsical. Best of all, this classic look will never go out of style.

Feeling conspicuous? Try smaller dots (such as the ones on this Kate Spade), or Swiss dots, like the ones on our dress below.

We appreciate the sumptuous drape of the neckline and the buttons placed just so, off the center line.

We’re huge fans of the toggle coat, for men and for women.  This particular version features oversized pockets, oversized shoulder detailing, and a hood to help protect your head from the elements.

This week, we present to you the cutest women’s sweatercoat and an awesome men’s herringbone jacket!

Love the shoulder detailing, the hook and eye closures, and the ribbon trim. Adorable!

Versatile jacket that, according to Active Endeavors , is “one part professor (black leather elbow patches) and three parts Mod (rounded, leather edged lapels, a slim bodice and high three-button).” Added bonus for us? The Obedient Sons label was launched out of San Francisco.

We’re all over…
Friends and Family Discounts

Has anyone else wondered why retail didn’t try it earlier? No doubt with the viral popularity of this year’s discounts, stores will be repeating it in the holiday seasons to come.

We’re all over…
Jeweled necklines

It’s a necklace! No…it’s a top! Wait…it’s both!

We’re So over:
Coral-branch patterns

Why: They’ve always looked a bit like veins to us.

We’re So over:
Motorcycle-inspired bags

 

 The street is literally littered with these!

Tell Us: What’s in? What are you so over?

Trendscape: Raw Edging

We love the frayed detailing that
we’ve been seeing everywhere lately: It’s feminine, yet just a tad
rugged, and elegant without seeming too contrived.

Megan and Tyson

Names: Megan and Tyson
Found: Patiently waiting outside H&M Powell, well within the first hundred people in line.
Arrived at H&M: "6am, but our friends got here at 4am."
At H&M for:
Stella McCartney, of course. Megan: "The jumper and the jeans." Tyson:
"The men’s dress shirt that was transformed into a dress."

Personal style: Megan: "I just throw on whatever’s clean, whatever’s comfortable." Adds Tyson: "I’m all about comfortable."
Last Words: Tyson: "No Uggs, no pajamas, no LV pochettes, no knit Uggs, no Jessica Simpson, no Ashlee Simpson, no ruffled miniskirts."

Thanks, Tyson. Couldn’t have said it better ourselves.
