Guest Post: I’M REVOLTING Takes on Winter

February 9th, 2011

Some of you may follow I’M REVOLTING, and if you don’t you should. SW has created an online space that meticulously gathers and displays a fascinating mix of things from the art, fashion, and design worlds with a splash of the personal (hello amazing flea market finds!). SW graciously agreed to share the things she’d love to surround herself with, if she lived in a colder clime, during the waning days of winter here on Pour Porter. Enjoy!

” There’s no fashion challenge quite like the middle-end of winter. After months of swaddling, we long for: the freedom of a single layer, the simplicity of nothing much. But I miss the cold weather. I miss the jolt of morning air and color in my cheeks, the frozen lake and unplowed streets.
Last month, in Cambodia, I met a man who told me that just once, before he died, he’d like to see snow. You can have the harsh summer light, the flimsiness. I miss snow.
For those of you who don’t live in Los Angeles, where it’s been 80 degrees all week, here are my picks for the death throes of winter. ”

Azita Shop + Colour Obsessions

March 19th, 2010

I almost forgot to post this today! Anyways, here are some current favourites from Azita in the colours I’ve been obsessing over. The sweatshirt is just too marvelously hilarious. (And I wish I could slap the trousers and sweatshirt on right now) They ship overseas and prices are listed in euros, great britian pounds, and us dollars

Ssaw

February 25th, 2010

Left: Prose dress;  Middle: Bless scarf;  Right: Wood Wood pants

So I’ve posted about Prose, Swash, and Vilsbøl de Arce recently and was happy to find that Ssaw, based out of Stuttgart, Germany, carries these lines and more. They have a nice, limited assemblage of items so you won’t be overwhelmed by too many choices. And guys – O.M.G.they have the Prose dress I’m nuts about (see above and click to enlarge)! Unfortunately, I’m a little tied up buying inventory for the Pour Porter shop, so I’ll just have to admire it from afar. They will ship internationally, although at the moment their delivery terms are all in German. Prices are in euros, and you’ll have to forgive me for being too lazy to do the conversions for you today

Ashtray

November 4th, 2009

Another post about another shop from Sweden! Stockholm based Ashtray stocks menswear from both large and small brands, Scandinavian and international. This makes for a nice, tight selection that’s easy to browse. The best part though (and all the more reason to shop them) is that they offer free shipping worldwide and obviously knock off the EU tax for their international customers. (I’ve listed prices in U.S. dollars minus the 25% VAT)

Dress: $79.20;   Boots: $284

If you’re part of the growing contingent of people who are increasingly attracted to Scandinavian labels, you’ll be happy to discover Swedish shop, Scoutthestore. Of course, some of you will be mostly excited by the fact that they stock Minimarket and the latest version of their coveted wedge boot. They carry both men and women’s clothing and have a handy drop down menu that allows you to select your currency of choice. Prices are in U.S. dollars minus the 20% EU tax
