Harvard has approved a new line of expensive prep clothing, called “Harvard Yard,” to generate money for Harvard’s undergraduate financial aid program, a deal that has drawn mixed reactions from students and intense media coverage in late-night television, celebrity gossip blogs, and major newspapers.[The [...]


“Where The Wild Things Are” on the runway?

The Uniform Project: Doin’ A Lot With A Little

I love the message and the vibe behind The Uniform Project.
Basically this girl – Akanksha – is committing to wearing just one dress for an entire year. Each day she reinvents her look by adding layers and accessories that are all vintage, hand-made or hand-me-downs. She calls it “an exercise in sustainable fashion.”
I think it’s [...]
