American made clothing the trendy and the crappy.
So,my Husband has been on a big American made kick. So after purchasing a pair of Todd Shelton jeans I wondered what was out there. NOT MUCH!!!!! Come on America, if we are gonna make clothing here why does every site look so dumpy. I came across so many bad sites that it broke my trendy heart. I was assaulted by bad taste and crappy photos.
http://www.americansworking.com/
Only a few sites that can be saved from this naughty list are as followed.
Todd Shelton : http://www.toddshelton.com/
Dirt Ball Fashion: http://www.dirtballfashion.com/
American Apparel: http://www.americanapparel.net/
http://www.awakenedaesthetic.com/2010/04/alternatives-to-american-apparel/
So I say ATTENTION all you designer wanna bee's start your own brand, market it right and create some home grown work. We are a creative country but we are giving away good work to save a buck. I'm not saying I only where American but wouldn't it be nice to be able to.
Be proud and trendy all at once!!!!

"Summer Blues & Winter Stripes" by Karen St. Pierre on LOOKBOOK.nu
"Summer Blues & Winter Stripes" by Karen St. Pierre on LOOKBOOK.nu: "I love the mixing of the stripes with the more painterly pattern of the sweater.
Paired with the skinny jeans I feel relaxed."

I Love We The Free
I Love We The Free, Lately I can't get enough of this brand. Created out of Free People, the We The Free line is way less girly, a little more mature and right up my ally. Over 2 years ago I saw this line at Artist and Agent in NYC I knew right away this brand would do fantastic. Its got the hand made quality we love but a little more rocker,
Here are a few pics to get you going.

Home Away.com
So we will be in NYC in May and need a place to stay. Found this great site for Apts/homes that are rentals. Rather then pay the high price for a hotel you can rent a cozy and CLEAN house or Apt. I have read many great reviews by happy customers and a only 2 un-happy. The prices seem great and the locations right where we need them.
Thinking this is the new trend...whose with me?
xoxo Travel and love
