Rep Your SF Muni Line with a Smirk
15 years ago
Poke fun at the misery of waiting up to 45 minutes at your MUNI Stop, and wondering if your SF MUNI line is running at all. New Muni Tees use the circular MUNI train letters to spell out words that more accurately describe your MUNI line, like Jacked (J-Church), Kaput ( K-Ingleside), Late (L-Taraval), and Tardy (T-Third Street).
If your interested in the more traditional way of repping your MUNI line, check out our earlier post.

The Old Ladies Rebellion
15 years ago
I first read about The Old Ladies Rebellion at TrendLand.com a few weeks back. I’ve ever seen a stylish collection for Grandma’s and am excited about this emerging designer market. Anyone who’s considering a lucrative career as a fashion designer should consider designing for the aging baby boomer generation. The designers behind the Old Ladies Rebellion is a French 24-year- old Fanny Karst. Fanny proves that you can be elegant and Rock n’ Roll at any age. All the dresses are made to order, they are printed, fitted and finished by hand!

Obey’s Superstition Vest $70 has a nontraditional slouchy shape with an unusual back featuring a pleated cumberbund style panel and narrow “T”. This front looks more traditional featuring welt pockets. The vest is made of 75% polyester, 21% rayon, 4% spandex.

Sizzle by Coloriffics Montreal Heel for $42.95 is one of the best priced, best deals in cutout heels for Fall I’ve found. The patent leather look isn’t my all time favorite but it does the trick. The heels consist of dual ankle straps, platform sole and 3.5″ heel.
The Kay Dress by BB Dakota $84 is designed in a basic dress style with a hint of 80’s trend peeking through in the shoulder cutouts. The dress has a side split and hidden back zip closure. Constructed of midweight knit jersey consisting of 63% polyester, 32% rayon, 5% spandex.
Zigi Shoes The Diva Heel $85 have been getting a lot of attention, as they should, these 4.25″ cut-out leather peep toe booties with a zipper closure over the heel are tough looking and will dress up anything you put on…but you shouldn’t wear these for too many hours straight or your feet will never forgive you.
Edun’s Ogogo Cut-out Sweater $210 is for those who aren’t interested in trendy cutout clothes but would rather spend a TON of cash on an 100% organic cotton sweater made in Peru by eco-friendly brand.
Bebe Leather Moto Jacket
15 years ago
Bebe hasn’t designed anything news worthy in years…but their Leather Moto Jacket is HOT HOT HOT! It’s resoanably priced at $198.00, comes in 2 colors, black and sapphire blue (this one is super ugly). Levis has a similar Leather Moto Jacket selling for $298. The Levis jacket comes in normal colors: black and brown; and though I’d way rather sport the Levis brand…I’m going to purchase Bebe ‘s Leather Moto Jacket becuase the price tag is right on!
J.Crew Launches “Jack Knows Best”
15 years ago
Email fashion questions to Jack, then check the website over and over again to see if Jack has posted an answer to your online. How Cool, or what a wait of time? This is in fact J.Crew’s latest feature.
Here’s an example of a question that has been answered on the site:
What’s the difference between a sportcoat and a blazer?
“Both blazers and sportcoats are similar in design to suit jackets, but they’re meant to be worn as separates. People often use the two terms interchangeably, but traditionally speaking, the word blazer refers specifically to wool or cashmere jackets that are solid navy in color. Sportcoats are slightly more casual and are usually made in a wider range of fabrics and colors (they can also have patterns, like stripes or herringbone).”
The Armored Jeans

Acne Jeans Spring/Summer 2010 lookbook includes an interesting addition: The Armored Jean.
The jeans have polished plates on the thighs, knees and shins while jackets have plates on the shoulders and elbows. The outstanding question…how do you wash them?
