Simple Shades for Winter
15 years ago
I’m into very simple shades for the winter and holiday season. Black, Red and shades of nude create a timeless look – which can be mistaken for current, even cutting edge trends. Some of these pieces are a bit pricey, however the designer labels are tried and true – and as many of my friends who swear by designer labels, you’ll get much more use (wear and tear) out of well constructed, designer pieces than you will buying five times the shirts at H&M or Forever 21.
Items shown above: 1. Free People, Studded black ‘Blackout Belt‘ 2. Dolce Vita’s Rex wedge heel in Black (also available in Grey) 3. CC Skye Hindge Bracelet in Brown (available in Chocolate Brown, not Black) 4. Karen ZAMBOS Carmen Top 5. Treesje Bryant Clutch in Cherry 6. Sanctuary Tomboy Tencil Twill Pant 7. Twelfth Street Luella Wedge in Nude 8. House of Harlow Plated Aztec Bangle in Black.

The Vers iPhone Infocase $39.99 offers the maximum protection for your phone. This case is top loading, with a quick release finger detail in the rear – which allows you to quickly anwser calls, etc.
The Tenderloin Project
15 years ago
I recently read about The Tenderloin Project in Thrillist San Francisco. Having lived in the TL (aka Tenderloin District, San Francisco) in 2006-2007, this project is important to me. Utilizing the interactive mediums of photography and film, The Tenderloin Project aims to capture a compelling and honest portrait of this diverse community.
The TTP will be showcase in a variety of outlets including a collection of black and white portraits, HD videos, and a soon to be released coffee table book. A line of clothing is also in the works.
If you’re in the mood to purchase any of the pieces, proceeds from the sales will be donated to organizations that promote and give access to art in the Tenderloin.
(here’s a map of the Tenderloin for your reference)
Rent Designer Labels with Rent The Runway
15 years ago
Harvard Business School graduates Jennifer Hyman and Jennifer Carter Fleiss came up with the strategy for Rent the Runway, a clothing concept that has been compared to Netflix. The duo has created an online platform making typically unattainable fashion accessible to a much larger demographic.
Rent the Runway allows its members to rent designer dresses for up to 4 days for $50 – $200, or approximately 10% of their retail value. For an additional $25 you can choose an alternate dress option to be shipped, in case the fit or style is not right.

The Hill-Side is a new source for anti-neckwear neckwear. The Brooklyn brand is built on the premise that just about everything is better made from classic blue-collar fabrics like waxed canvas and the French fabric, chambray. And so far, as applied to ties, handkerchiefs and bandanas – they’ve always been right!
