Fabrics Interseason

December 29th, 2010

I’d been checking Fabrics Interseason‘s site for a couple months hoping to finally see their A/W 10 collection. Happily after checking in a couple days ago, the A/W 10 and S/S 11 collections are both up. Each season is a fluid evolution of the brand’s style – you know that layered voluminous avant-garde 80s look; their two most recent collections also hint at the 1920s and 1970s. They don’t stray much from a consistent colour theme either. Good stuff! Click through to see more

Accessories for Anyone

December 20th, 2010

Postalco calfskin envelope: $465;  Royall cologne: $25;  Wood wristwatch: $75

I’ve got to admit that we’ve neglected any male readers we may have had the past several months. Of course, Brannan has been very busy with the shop’s site and hasn’t had any time to search out menswear type items. So today I’m linking to a few more guy friendly things, you know, if you’re into gender specific accessories. (Re: the cologne – My dad used to wear the Royall Lyme so this brings back childhood memories. The colognes are light and fresh and not overbearing. I despise perfumes, colognes, etc in general, but these get a pass from me! )Actually, all of these items are pretty much unisex, so hooray for that

VDC Boutique -The Locker Key

December 15th, 2010


Ok, yes pinterest blah, blah, blah, but I seriously have some awesome people I follow on there. A huge old thank ye to LB Palmer (check out her blog too!) for this mind-blowingly (yes I did add the ubiquitous ‘ly’ to the end of an adjective) good find. Charlotte of VDC Boutique: The Locker Key creates simple, unassuming but very stylish clothing that has me reconsidering a uniform. Click over because there’re loads of beautiful clothes to see

Blog Note: Pour Porter’s Pinterest & Shop Update

December 13th, 2010

So I’ve been having too much fun with the blog’s pinterest account (see some of my pins above). Some of the things I pin may show up here, but I do like the less formal experience of quickly posting my or other people’s finds. I do have a few invites left if any of you would like to join-just post in the comments and I’ll shoot an invite off to you. Anyway, wander over if you’d like to see more Pour Porter favourites!

Also, as an FYI almost all A/W items are marked down 10-30% at the Shop, that means all ANNTIAN, Lauren Manoogian, ffiXXed, A’N’D, Osei-Duro, RosenMunns, and Swedish Hasbeens
