Earlier this year, reports circulated around the scene about Pendleton’s collaboration with Opening Ceremony. And if you know anything about Pendleton, you’d know that the company itself has a 140 year history of creating finely woven 100% pure virgin wool clothing for the masses. Now their latest project includes trademark Native American details & various patterns intertwined with Opening Ceremony’s hipster urban flare. Thus producing a finished collection of jackets, vest, cardigans, and more for both men and women. Now the question is are we loving it?

No need to worry….fall will officially hit the scene in a few weeks. Which means that you definitely have to option to spice things up on the wardrobe forefront.

You know that when you’re a teenager…the color black pretty much covers your daily uniform! Funny enough, my mother always told me that color really affects your mood, and displays your inner most personality! So I guess that you can say I was one of those mangled teenagers….on a serious mission to prove something! And while I dread my teenage years…and keep it yucked away in my memory rolodex, I’ve fast forward myself into transition courtesy of Furstenberg of course.

Alright, when it comes straight down to NYFW – many onlookers are looking to rock the hottest looks possible come the designated season. I on the other hand, tend to look for things of the practical pieces to accommodate my wallet and wardrobe. Usually this would include super casual looks. Let me be read for a moment….dresses seldom fit my daily routine…but if it comes from Lacoste, more than likely I’ll show off my Serena William-esque build. I’m also a sucker for colorful polos and prepster-clad pieces donning that perky alligator patch! Lacoste brought the heat on Saturday, not holding back on the infinite looks available for both men and women. Take a looky-look at what you might have missed on the runway! More after the jump!
