Mad for Plaid

Mad for Plaid

By on August 30, 2009 in Fashion, Style, Trends

We are loving plaid right now. Not your school uniform plaid, but girly, yet edgy plaid. It’s great to play around with- dress it up or down and decide whether to go with classic plaid color combinations (like greens and reds) or something a bit newer for the season (black and white).

Style Staple: The Trench

Style Staple: The Trench

By on August 26, 2009 in Clothes, Designers, Fashion, Shopping, Trends

Living in SF has given us 1,001 reasons to buy more than our fair share of coats. The daily fog makes it impossible to leave the house in the morning without one. When we first moved here, we invested in a classic khaki trenchcoat from Banana Republic and haven’t regretted that decision since.

Nina Garcia at Marie Claire recently wrote that a trench coat is a wardrobe staple that is worth the extra $$ as an investment piece. Most trenches are timeless, while still offering the option of being a bit edgy. Below are a few of our faves that are hot for fall. As WhoWhatWear mentioned in a recent post, the trench is the perfect accessory to transition your wardrobe from summer to fall.
