traveling alone to a show, and perusing the younger crowd is intimidating. maybe it’s flashbacks to highschool… i really liked this hoodie, it looked so cozy. and those boots, those boots were the whole reason i stopped her. i thought she was rock, without being ‘rock’.
Tag great use of color
slim silhouette – tim – pioneer square
| From needle+thread |
it was chilly at artwalk this month… i loved the color of his sweater/button-down- just a little hint of spring peeking through… i’m also taking inspiration from all the oxfords i’m seeing, i’ve been on the hunt to find the perfect pair…

pop of color – shalonne – crown hill value village
| From needle+thread |
many of you know shalonne. and as much as i sometimes dread attending events on my own (shocking that my husband doesn’t want to attend every fashion event, I KNOW!) she’s usually one of the friendly faces i can count on being in the crowd. i’ve been remiss in not having a picture of her sooner (i somehow become shy pestering friends for photos) because she always has some element to her style or outfit that’s unique or, to my own enjoyment, vintage. a favourite was a little square vintage purse (think book-like) that had little compartments for powder and lipstick.
i think she said her pants were from paris, but they reminded me of these rag and bone trousers.
color + stripes – brooklyn + michelle – SAMRemix
| From needle+thread |
brooklyn does nails. for butter of london. i forgot to ask if he went to NY fashion week… i loved his sweater, and loved it even more when he said he picked it up at benetton. so old school!
urban prep – jono – SAMRemix – downtown seattle
| From needle+thread |
the pink and yellow, to me, are little tells that say spring is on people’s minds.
button down + denim – chris + nate – SAMRemix
| From needle+thread |
i am truly digging that print on the shirt on the left. oversize, graphic, bright…
great coat – gail – capitol hill
| From needle+thread |
best detail? the velvet flats with the bow…
layers – ande – capitol hill
| From needle+thread |
today’s a pictorial treat. since i went to SAMRemix over the weekend, and have a few (hundred) pictures to post, i thought i’d get to these first and start the SAM series tomorrow. these last few are some of my favourites from that day- hope you enjoy!
yoga cowgirl – jenny – capitol hill
| From needle+thread |
i loved that she was on her way to yoga, and was wearing cowboy boots…
new addition – jesslyn – downtown seattle
| From needle+thread |
it’s odd to me to think that i know of 19 people who have had, or will have (in the next few months) a baby. that seems like a bit of a boom to me. i love seeing someone who doesn’t cater to the dressing challenge existing on her front mid-section. i recently attended a baby shower (the mom-to-be had her baby like 2 days later) and she looked more put together than anyone in the room, and quite frankly, adorable (somewhat uncomfortable?). anyway… to cute pregnant ladies! (another cute mom i spotted a while ago)
ladylike details – beth – post alley – seattle
| From needle+thread |
beth’s hat from milliner wayne wichern.
| From needle+thread |
i need a little pick me up today.
i’ve been seeing little details like that sunny yellow skirt here and there. little tells that say ‘i’m thinking of spring’. i did it myself just the other day. layered up to the nines, cropped denim , mary janes, and no socks. 50 degrees and no socks. i’m so ready for spring.
seattle dandy – preston – pike place market
| From needle+thread |
i love that the butterfly on his tie was an actual butterfly pin… and that hat makes me swoon.
urban classic – dre – pike place market
| From needle+thread |
so many people down milling about… AND they were filming a movie. dre performs down in the market…
color + fur – heather – pike place market
| From needle+thread |
heather works at cicada. i (again) don’t want to mention how long we followed her… but when she stopped for donuts in the market, we stopped to chat. love the over the top hat.
inherent cool – kei – outdoor retailer – slc
| From needle+thread |
i saw kei many times. after i’d asked for the picture, and kept running into him, i felt like a nerd. at the end of one day, we ran into each other again, and he gave me the coolest catalog I’VE EVER SEEN. it could be my fascination/obsession with japan, but kei is one cool dude. my picture does not do his style justice. that cardi was amazing… and i loved the short pant with pop sock.
primary pop – lexi – outdoor retailer – slc
| From needle+thread |
there were a few people i saw over and over, and i wish i’d asked for a picture each day. some people just know how to put it together.
