hello, kitty...IN A PARKA
I hope you all pre-ordered your United Bamboo kitty calendar for 2011. Kitties in clothes are becoming increasingly more cute than dogs in clothes because they look even more uncomfortable.

I had a minor freak out when I saw Leo DiCaprio covered in tattoos. Could he be any more perfect? Turns out Fiasco mag did an entire editorial with celebrity masks. Is that allowed? Would it be weird if a Daul Kim mask showed up on the site?

Minimalism. Yes we do.
You call it a trend? We call it what we do. Minimalism. Simple not boring, monotone colors, easy fabrics, minimal. Our store is full of it, all the time. You need to look at every piece, examine what it’s worth, how it will work with your wardrobe, what each piece could do to enhance what you already have. It may look all the same from the window, but up close each piece is uniquely...
//JUST IN: Wow wow WOWCH
It’s rare when we open a new package at the store and our first reaction is to start laughing. But you’d laugh too if you saw a huge pile crazy WOWCH graphics staring up at you. This batch includes three tees for guys and two for girls, all in either cotton or 50/50 cotton/poly blends that are soft to the touch and all stupidly hilarious.

Gitman Sisters Gray Chambray Shirt
Chambray is probably one of our favorite fabrics and it makes perfect sense for San Francisco: soft to the touch, plush enough to keep you warm, and a great balance between polished and rugged that means you can wear it with anything. And now ladies can get in on a fabric usually reserved for the guys in a beautiful...
Faux Fur
As much as I love REAL fur, faux fur is quite fun to play with. If we lived somewhere cold like Russia or Antarctica (WHY?!) this would be pretty appropriate attire. Otherwise, call us the Beavertons.
Faux fur, $15 at H&M. Faux fur means mo’ fun.

Gitman Brothers Skinny Chalk Stripe Tie
Smashing Spring
Last year at this same time I was on my way to Paris, thoroughly disinterested with what I had seen for Spring 2010. I can’t say I feel the same way this time around. Thank god!
Peep just a few of my favorites from LD Tuttle, Dannijo, My Pet Square, The Addison Story, Wendy Nicol, Veda, United Bamboo and SHIN.
