Dazed and Confused

Whenever I see, shorts and shorts and Converse I think of the movie Dazed and Confused. If you haven’t seen the film-it’s a bout teens in the 1970’s driving around Texas and getting hammered. Here are two retro pieces that are always in style.

New Elizabeth and James Collection!

New to Shopbop, is the Olsen Twins’ (I mean Mary Kate and Ashley, don’t want them to sue me!) clothing line Elizabeth and James.  Unlike the Row, E and J is more bohemian with a modern edge. Each piece is named after the musician or movie star that inspired it. Like the Joni tunic for Joni Mitchell or the Garbo jacket for actress Greta Garbo. Here are Fashion Indie’s Top 10 fav’s from their collection:
