With the deluge of daily-sale blasts coming over email from designers, stores and flash sites like Gilt Groupe, plus new, lower-priced designer collaborations for such retailers as Target and H&M born every hour, when it comes to fashion today it's easy to be overwhelmed by choice and confused about what things really cost. Enter the Web-only clothing and accessories company Everlane , founded on a less-is-more philosophy of offering a pared-down selection of high-quality men's and women's "luxury basics" with very little markup in price. That means, for example, a garment-dyed, Supima cotton T-shirt made in Los Angeles that a designer might sell for $50 in his own boutique, costs just $15 on Everlane.com. While fashion labels and retailers typically mark up prices as much as five times the production cost, Everlane saves money by being an online-only operation and passing the savings, as they say, onto the consumer, offering items at markups only 2 to 2 1/2 times the production cost.

Ah, summer. The time of year when we all switch our black handbags out for something more colorful, thereby losing our checkbooks and favorite lip gloss. More » Look out, folks, there’s a SuperMoon a-risin’ and let me tell you, when SuperMoon is high in the sky, you’d best watch out for strange and unnatural happenings.

Beginning with their June issues, the editors of the 19 international editions of Vogue magazine have made a pact to stop using models under age 16 or those who, from the viewpoint of the editors, appear to have an eating disorder. In a somewhat unusual announcement, unusual in that the magazines are wading into a controversial issue, the Condé Nast International chairman, Jonathan Newhouse, said on Thursday, “Vogue editors around the world want the magazines to reflect their commitment to the health of the models who appear on the pages and the well-being of their readers.” For decades, fashion magazines have been criticized for upholding an unrealistic standard of beauty, and even more so with the widespread use of digital retouching that often results in images of models and celebrities that have no basis in reality.

Oy vey, I've given up on collecting all the images/playlists/collages/stickers/diary entries/etc. necessary for my usual all-encompassing VIBES posts. The task has suddenly become really daunting! And tedious! And a blog is probably not the best format for being retrospective and examining all the music/movies/outfits/etc.

Thursday, March 22, 2012 I can’t believe Spring is here so quickly. Cool evenings and warm afternoons, my assistant Maggie says it’s her favorite time of the year because she can wear everything in her wardrobe all at once. Wednesday, March 21, 2012 Transitional dressing….Summer shoes and Winter coat.
Nude “Sex” shoes (and yes, the word is spelled out in Swarovski crystals) make us want to click our heels three times, get into bed and … put on our slippers. Bold statements set the tone for the spring 2012 issue of T Design. The artist Doug Aitken’s house in Southern California sounds as striking as it looks, while a London town house contrasts historic architecture with opinionated, contemporary decorating. T visits a wind-swept West Coast garden with a personal style and a Chicago artist whose ceramic plants evoke a garden on another planet.
