A lovely reader referred me to Alise Marie, a ready to wear line that captures a vintage flair in a modern approach. She draws upon silent film vixens and art deco (two of my favorite things) for inspiration and plays with silk chiffons, velvet, and hemp to create some really vampy fashions. If I had a gift card, my choices would be the swiss dot chiffon blouse, black silk pencil skirt and cream herringbone coat with faux fur trim and hemp fleece lining. I'd definitely be the femme fatale for sure.
Ok, enough super-girlie talk, on to men. The infamous Juicy Couture line, those Cali girls who brought us expensive terry cloth sweatsuits, have now expanded to the realm of menswear.
Who would have guessed that men could wear track pants, screenprint tees, and velvet blazers . . . all at the same time!!! Please don't read that I'm encouraging this look, but it's featured on bloomingdales.com: pants ($138), tee ($62), blazer ($225), & oh so much more . . . .
