Pour Porters diminutive size is deceiving. The opposite of a smorgasbord, this nascent webshop offers a distinctively daring selection of clothing, accessories and shoes. Since sale season is on in f...
You know I love me some colorful prints—all the more so when theyre jumbled together. Hence, Boxing Kittens Resort 2010 presentation (via Click/Clash) featured as a major bright point on my radar las...
After an oh-too-long hiatus, one of my favorite vintage eBay destinations has re-emerged and transformed into a fully fledged webstore! The Olive Shoppe, originally based in California, has gone noma...
Wow! Out of 75 entries, my spotty duds have been selected as one of four finalists in The Glamourais polka dot outfit contest. The winner gets a $150 gift certificate to shop at Kellys webshop. If yo...
Eons ago, I went balls to the wall with my penchant for limiting ensembles to a single print—stripes, fauna, space-dye and plaid all got their moment in the spotlight. Its only now, though, that I ha...
Its taken me a while to observe this, but when I take photos on my deck, Im less inclined to pose dramatically. The photos tend to come out looking goofy and sad otherwise, and the environs are not c...
This work ensemble hails from just last month. (Im catching up to realtime ever, ever so slowly.) The skirt was purchased circa 1998, for performing with my schools concert band. With the current, in...
Speaking of wanting sneakers that work well in the cooler months.... Why, hey—its a fall 09 outfit!I worked that in pretty smoothly...eh?*crickets*Outfit : Vintage boys sweatshirt, AA jean skirt, drug...
Hiking in Maine. Nowhere near as treacherous as it looks.Apparently, once one stops blogging, starting up again is quite the task. To clarify, I havent been interning in NYC all this time. When I fir...
As I was flicking through the latest Anthropologie catalog, I came across an artful jumble of canvas kicks. Im sure you can picture it: Staged just so, so as to give off the look that a small flock o...
Once again, I've dropped the blogging ball—but not without good reason! I've taken some time off of my normal gig and routine to head to the Big Apple for fashion week. As it is, I'm already in the t...
It's been jeansjeansjeans around the clock since winter traipsed in, but these lilac tights, a gift from We Love Colors (thanks, Heather!), were worth getting gussied up for. Ever since I got into sn...
Playing outfit catch up, per usual. Conserving words as well. But for what it's worth, a story about the tweed jacket: It's by Trovata, and I found it at the Barneys outlet store a year ago in Hawaii...
In an attempt to a) share some of my non-fashion activities with all y'all and b) indulge in my list-making tendencies, I've decided to start a brand spanking new, quasi-regular series called Extracu...
For literally two years, I'd been on the prowl for some sturdy browline glasses, à la Malcolm X. My first pair, a cheapie costume iteration off of eBay, rocked but were only for show. I needed some s...
Martini took these shots of me last July, when there was actually still a bit of a chill in the air. Needless to say, this transitioned into a good fall outfit as well. Those of you in Beantown may r...
I like my Chucks classic, be them in white, black, navy or red. Preferably with smudges of grime and a few, hard-earned rips in the canvas, mind you. Bubble gum pink and graphic Cons, on the other ha...
I'm not much in the mood for fancy talk, so I'll just shoot straight: No, I haven't cut my hair. These photos were taken in Spring 2008, before I had embarked on the path to bang-less-ness. I was pla...
I dropped by Luna Boston the other night to browse the goods and carry on a rather foghorn-esque conversation with Joe F. (We both had colds, but I'm positive I was the more congested, incomprehensib...
Nothing gets my heart thumping like a proper basic, but the sheer glut of classic and essential pieces out there often leaves my eyes glazed over. (Meanwhile, shiny things like sequins unfailingly be...
Along with cultivating clarity through closet cleanup comes purchasing that's even more selective. New acquisitions absolutely need to be speh-shull with a capital S, and I think these vintage oxford...
It started snowing unexpectedly in mid-October, so the recent run of warmth we had was probably one of the last chances I'll have to bare arms and legs for the next few months. Readers occasionally a...
I am utterly horrendous at replying to comments in any sort of timely manner, so I just wanted to holla loud and clear at K-Line, sasha.wilmoth, Selina of Flying Saucer, Kb of I WANT YOU TO KNOW, Lan...
An infinitesimally minute sampling of my wardrobe.While traversing the internet and meandering through the glossies, I often come across what are two dominating philosophies in how one approaches add...
Over my annual, unscheduled summer hiatus, I was contemplating a future post on the "new direction" of dreamecho, a direction that involved less writing than in past years. For, although I came into ...
Boston Fashion Week has run its course once again, and while in the past I've been a dresser for Sam Mendoza and Samuel Vartan's shows, I decided to take it easy this year and just go as a spectator....
After being out of the blogging ring for a couple of months, I've been bouncing with eagerness to get back into the game. What better way to do so than with my Irregular Choice wrestling boots—and re...
Salutations!I may sound cheery in greeting, but in truth I'm grumpy and disappointed. It looks like it'll be a tad while longer until I get to post again. I've been without Internet at home for the p...
Hi ladies (and the odd gent),Don't mind the taper off in posts! At this time of year I'm usually trying to cram as much daytripping in as possible before fall sets in. I've also been preoccupied with...
A couple of months ago, I launched Bloomers, Round II: The Frenzied Online Hunt (see Round I: The Random Brick and Mortar Find) and promptly wound up at the treasure trove that is Neneee, Valerie Kin...
