As long as I’ve been reading fashion magazines, I’ve seen lists of what’s “in” and “out.” I’ve always wondered what made the people writing the lists authorities on what is hot or not but I always took them with a grain of salt and read them more for amusement than for fashion advice. Today, on The Moment Blog, I came across the funniest “In & Out” list I’ve ever seen. It was created by Chris Moukarbel as part of his current art exhibit, appropriately named, IN/OUT. I was happy to find that snapping was “in” and clapping was “out,” because I’ve been known to randomly start snapping to the music. Really, I’m not kidding - just ask the interns - they make fun of me for it.
In4mation is shipping out it’s women’s Fall 08 collection next month but we have a sneak peak of all the goodness that’s to come. The collection features hoodies, sweaters, tops, pants and skirts in fabrics like wool, cotton and tweed. The color palette features blacks and greys with pops of yummy sounding colors like butternut (yellow), blue maize (turqoise), purple and borscht (deep reddish purple). The sweaters look really cozy and the wool pants look really comfortable - almost a “real pant alternative” to my favorite - sweatpants. The colors form geometric patterns that run throughout the line and are also featured on some of the graphic tees. Check out detail shots of the cut & sew collection and some of the graphics for tees after the jump!
Everytime I see this commercial I want to start dancing!! All I have to say is that my dorm room was barely large enough to fit my bed and a desk. These ladies are livin’ large!
Lately, I’ve been seeing so much Olympic-inspired product on the web, and news on how preparations are going in Beijing, but not so much on the actual games. This week I was flipping through Time Magazine and noticed that they have a piece on 100 Olympic athletes to watch. There are a number of women on that list, from many countries, playing many different sports. These are all ladies who are “making history” in their own sport and their stories are inspiring. To read more about these incredible athletes check out the piece here.
It’s that time of year when the pimps come to town - the Sneaker Pimps! They’re stopping in LA on Friday, August 1st and as always, they have a great lineup of liver performers including Public Enemy!! Also, if you haven’t had a chance to check out Craig Wetherby’s photos, some of his work will be up at the show. Don’t forget to make a note of the new location at Element.
