Harvard & Fashion

harvard-yard-harvard-univ-240bsc081009Harvard University has started a fashion line called Harvard Yard headed up by Verus Group. They are launching a men's line in 2010 with a women's line following. Since I adore all things preppy, I'm pretty excited about this. This does pose the question, "What would Arizona State's fashion line look like?" Hmmm... harvard-yard-launch-240bsc081009harvard-yard-harvard-univ-240bsc081009

Black & Blue

7019Denimshirt2WebDenim shirts and black jeans are making a HUGE come back in fashion right now for men and women, respectively. I can't believe it, but I'm really liking it! For men, denim shirts are going to be seen everywhere, but I think the styling and wash of the denim shirts are important to keep in mind. Double pockets, worn in, light-weight, denim with snaps are where it's at.

For the ladies, black denim, skinny jeans are taking over leggings. Note: this does not include faded, bleached black denim.

Please Don't...Overalls and high-waist, pleated pants

denimI remember the days when overalls and mid-drift shirts were really popular. I remember wearing pink pleated, corduroy, high-waist, tapered pants (good-NESS)...I never thought these styles would come back again because no human being's figure is flattered by these styles. I thought the whole point of one's fashion is to compliment personality and body type, no? Even the super models of the world look horrible in these styles!
