Maybe only Chicagoans will understand that title but I just have to throw it out there that I made a sports reference here on CCF (and my sports knowledge barely goes beyond Michael Jordan). Anyway, this post has nothing to do with sports (unless you consider fashion week a sport…which it very well could be). Moschino sent yet another buzz-worthy collection down the runway last week, but it’s not just the teddy bears and Looney Tunes references that has everyone talking…
It’s rare to come across a personal style post here on CCF and not find at least one piece from space519 (one of the best, most well-curated boutiques in the city). I’ve mentioned the store several times throughout various posts, including The Great Discovery…because it’s my go-to place for discovering new designers. But who exactly is responsible for this awesome place? This month’s CCF Loves — Jim Wetzel and Lance Lawson.
Between the Spring ’15 runways in September and what we’re seeing so far for Fall 2015, it’s safe to say that one of fashion’s favorite words — BOHO — is making its way back into our lives. I hope you like flares and fringe, because over the next few seasons, they will be thrown in your face.
How many minutes (or even hours) do we spend per year trying to find the perfect Instagram filter? I don’t have the answer…but I’m sure it’s longer than we’d like to admit. Why waste all that time when you can spend it doing productive things like making reservations on OpenTable and watching TMZ? I understand we all want to look good in photos, but a faux filter may not always be the answer…
Art is one of those funny things that’s only worth what the highest bidder will pay, and like fashion, a piece can really speak to me while others may find it hideous. In this case, I don’t think you’ll find anything this artist does to be hideous. At the very least, it will put a smile on your face…
