Denim Dictonary:PRPS Look Book Love
Look books are just as powerful visually to me as magazines. I enjoy reviewing them both for the story that is communicated through the clothing, and the photography. Denim companies tend to have pretty awesome campaigns each season, which I always love to check out. I'll spend a pretty penny on denim because I believe you get what you pay for, quality wise. We are the country of blue genes and I take the quality seriously.
PRPS is a brand to own if you are into denim craftsmanship and characteristics.The American made staples fall into three cateorgies, PRPS, PRPS Noir and PRPS Goods. I learned of the brand my sophomore year in college and loved the product so much I applied for an internship. I would later be interviewed for but unable to pursue due to my location at the time. When it comes to my love for a label, the highest point of loyalty, is wanting to be a part of the brand career wise.
Dowan Harrell, creative director and denim genius, nails it every season. The fall 13' collection is no different. I see quite a few gift ideas for my hunni. Guys, what are you expecting to add to the closet?
As a self proclaimed spokeswoman for good denim across the globe, I fully support a PRPS collection being started in every closet. The Fall 2013 Look book paints the perfect 'Outdoor Wild and Free' picture, starring PRPS. Clean lines, high quality finishes, and the great outdoors. The perfect Fall picture.
How are you digging the use of plaid and camo prints in this seasons collection?

MENS Style Study: Public School NYC
What comes to mind first when you hear Public School? For me; crowded hallways, children, notebooks, and fashion. Clearly the guys behind the Public School NYC label think of a more upscale version. One that includes high quality fabrics being transformed into luxury basics and streetwear items for men. The brand is proud to say they source fabrics from across the globe, but when it comes time to sew, everything is done in NYC . Pretty dope stuff for the trend setting mister. Public School's latest collection offers a range of looks for a range of styles, yours included. Check them out, tell me what you think of the collection guys!

A Male Perspective: Four Seasons Style Management
My sophomore year of college, as a fashion merchandising student, I had to take a course on the psychology of dress. That was probably my favorite class that semester. I loved learning about why people shopped, purchased, and dressed as they did. Style is not a perfect science but it is one that speaks volumes about an individual.
A lot of people don't appreciate spending a few extra dollars and minutes on your appearance. Remember, you only get one first impression with anyone; your future spouse, boss, business partner, or client. You should always take a few extra minutes to incorporate elements into your look that make you feel comfortable, as well as confident.

Lavish Accents: Monique Pean
D.C. native, Monique Pean has an amazing story behind her earthy accessories. When I say earthy, I'm talking the best sustainable materials, as a supporter of the No Dirty Gold campaign, this brand uses only 18 carat recycled gold in their pieces. Feel good fashion at it's finest ! Monique's younger sister, Vanessa's unexpected passing at the age of 16, became a driving force in her mission to change the world through art, fashion and philanthropy. Her pieces are exquisite, that extra "pow" to a day or night time look.
