Bonnaroo: Trippin’ on Street Style

Edited by Jessica Lapidos

Bonnaroo joins over 100,000 young music lovers together with the common objective of having the Greatest. Time. Ever. The festival went down this weekend in the hottest fun-brewing dustbowl this side of the Mississippi (and that side of the Mason Dixon Line). It was a feast (and challenge) for every sensation, and what everyone wore was truly sensational. I frolicked around with a Flip Cam tied to my body, sneakily capturing every outfit that caught my sparkling eyes. Upon reflection of these guerilla videos, I’ve snapshotted the trends that cropped up in This Tent and That and The Other, Which and What Stages. And this is what you wore:

Men Trends: Neon Lights

This week’s trend is Neon Lights. This translates into big and bold colors all over the place.

Top 10 Best Dressed Man Bands of All Time

Edited by Jessica Lapidos

Music is just about the ultimate sensory satisfaction. The songs that enliven your soul are created by gods of rock that don’t dare stop at the auditory; the sensation is full faceted. They may not call it fashion, but the greatest bands on the planet know in their blood that how they look helps drive the succes of the music itself. That way, when chicks like me are getting their groove on in the audience, we’re dancing with the pure sexiness on the stage before us – sound, body and soul. Here are the 10 bands* that do it best; fusing their sound to their clothes, dressed the way they rock.

TRENDSPARK: This Summer Get Your Ne-ON!!! [7 Photos]

Edited by Jessica Li

Neon is no longer a faux pas relic from the 80′s. Revitalized and fluorescent hues are the perfect way to add that splash of color to your summer wardrobe.  “Brights” no longer deliver that WOW factor, and that’s why we’ve turned to neons for our go-to summer ensembles. In my desperate cravings for everything neon, I’ve put together this little collection of shockingly bright editorials. Well – what are you waiting for? Get your Ne-ON!

Sharpie Highlighters for DC LIFE

Edited by Matt Newman

Ok, well Sharpie didn’t actually design these shoes, but it looks like somebody over at DC got bored during 5th grade math class and colored over their entire gym shoe with highlighter. If you’re into looking like you just splashed through an acid trip, check out these new “High Visibility” kicks.

FIRST LOOK: Paul Smith Jeans Fall 2009

Edited by Kirby Marzec

Paul Smith is helping to cure nostalgia with his very late 80′s/ early 90′s, Wes Anderson film inspired Fall 2009 Jeans collection. Featuring male models Ash Stymest, Jethro Cave and Stuart Jones, Paul Smith Jeans Fall 2009 is obviously for the flashier gentleman who isn’t afraid of a little fun and color. While I can live without men in neons and acid-wash denim, It sure is nice to see some tight jeans paired with bulky knits and duck-printed button-ups!

SPREAD UM: Alezandra K And Savannah Hayes By Suzy Poling For M.I.S.S

Edited by Hillary Frazier

Who would have ever thought that Adidas could ever look cool?  This spread interestingly shows off a neon line by Adidas, using track jackets as bows and belts, and playing up all things neon with crazy makeup and styling.  This shoot is pretty cool, even though I don’t particularly care for neon.

STREET HEROES: Neon Glovers

Loving the little blast of neon yellow that’s peeking out of her sleeves. It makes the whole outfit jump.
