To put it simply, Jack Vartanian's rose gold handcuffs are to die for. If you've ever seen The Rachel Zoe project (I'm personally a huge fan), I'm sure you've seen these golden cuffs on a previous episode. They were featured as a pretty and pretty sexy present from Rodger. If only they didn't cost an arm and a leg I would snag myself a pair.
One of the best perks of a new job is shopping for new clothes, in which I did today and picked up some lovely finds. Luckily my new job is so cool I get to wear whatever I want! Who loves ponchos? I do now. Deprived of H&M my whole life and other delightfully inexpensive shops, it's pure love shopping in Chicago. It's true, I did pass Giorgio Armani with a tear of joy (and pain) in my eye this afternoon, but mostly fell in love with a few basics from H&M. Happy Tuesday everyone! It's beginning to look a lot like fall... if not outside at least the window displays have me hopeful.
I have blue on the brain. An obsession with blue. Blue for summer, fall, winter and spring. Tessa and I found this 1950's blue sequin vest at Wild Man Vintage earlier this year. As soon as I saw it glitter out of the corner of my eye, I had to have it. Where and when exactly would one wear this blue vest? Anytime! It's no doubt that sequins draw attention, especially the mermaid dream vest above, but why is it that one must dull down their attire for the sake of others? Is it just to make sure we don't stick out too much, that we actually want to blend in? I hope not. Individuality is something sacred around tstreet, Tessa and I value originality, creativity, and fun when it comes to style. Big statement pieces are not only found in our closets but also a must for any personal wardrobe. Our advice? Don't be afraid to stick out and be different, wear what you want, wear what you like, be bold and most importantly be confident.
I would like to think that summer has faded and fall has begun but we all know that can't be true with the 100 degree weather here in Lawrence. But here is a little preview into fall. I'm obsessed with these 5 inch, blueberry leather, platform booties from Jeffery Campbell. They are $182 available online.
Wrangler's, "We Are Animals Campaign" gets down and dirty with their new fall line and their instincts couldn't be more on. Alongside Nylon Magazine's September Jean Issue and the denim buzz circulating around the industry, Wrangler is making its biggest comeback yet. Both the male and female fall layouts are rugged, sexy, and all about the jean. Wrangler's ad campaign however, seems to be going in the most primal direction possible... and possibly a little too animalistic for some. The video featured here is part of the "Stop Thinking" portion of the campaign, but it's more graphic sister ad video, "The Red Campaign" can be found by clicking here.
There's no better start to the the day then a morning workout. And as much as I love Chicago and seeing so many people out for a run on a Friday morning, Colorado is by far my favorite state. I'm pretty bias having grown up there and all, but in the summer time Colorado weather trumps all. Happy Friday! Stay posted for more tstreet pre-weekend finds and favs. Just thought I'd get your attention good and early.
