First, I saw them on The Sartorialist.
I sent the link to Heather, who’s helping me design Fashion Loves People — note the heart pin in my header, above. (Albeit much more rudimentary, we’re playing with the idea of making this my “thing.” Like pink ribbons.)
I initially thought these guys were some of the Sartorialist’s random […]

C&S is designed by a ridiculously adorable and talented Portland couple, Nathaniel Crissman and Rachel Turk — read all about them at Portland’s Ultra. The duo used to sew all pieces themselves but recently began outsourcing to a […]
Zac Posen invites us to upload an image of what we wore to the polls at FashiontheVote.com. Not the most important decision of the day (there, I said it)… but kinda fun.
VOTE!!!
The s/s 2009 Fashion Week season will end on Nov. 3, with Moscow pulling up the rear. If you didn’t make it to any traditional runways (like me), never fear. Viktor & Rolf will come to you.
The French pair’s show was presented exclusively and delightfully online: The Viktor & Rolf s/s 2009 collection, “Funny Face.” […]
Many congrats to Leanne for taking Project Runway! MUCH deserved… particularly on account that she made half her line with “sustainable textiles.” Further helping the world see that “green” doesn’t have to look granola-y. (THANK YOU.) There’s no doubt in my mind that this sustainable design element played at least a tiny part in helping […]
Portland Fashion Week is baaack! If your first question is the same as mine was, I’ll go ahead and answer it — no, Leanimal-slash-Leanne Marshall didn’t show. (She was way too busy WINNING — note the confident prediction — Project Runway.) Remember, she was my fave at last year’s show! Fun to look back and […]
While I’m sitting at my desk looking forward to Project Runway tonight, I wanted to throw this up if you hadn’t seen it — Leanne’s winning design from two weeks ago is available on the Diane Von Furstenburg website. It’s beautiful! And I don’t know about the specifics of this dress, but DVF does have […]
Lovely piece from Margaret Teich on The Huffington Post titled Refashioning Fashion Week:
… French Women dress like eco-fashionistas. Which is to say, they invest in durable pieces that last for many seasons, they mix and match high-end designers like Chanel with thrift store looks, and for the most part stay away from disposable, trend based […]
Imagine the concept of Craigslist, with a dose of Half.com, featuring only Mid-Century Modern furniture for buying and selling (and placing want ads). Imagine Lushpad! Eames chairs for a quarter of full price — it’s like Christmas everyday. Enjoy!

Oh, beautiful Chicago — the architecture, the neighborhoods, the parks, the youthfulness, the mob lore… and Pivot. My first visit to Chicago’s only eco boutique lived up to every one of my (high) expectations. The shop is sleek, quirky and just the right size — small enough to feel intimate, but large enough that its […]
