It’s all about minimalism these days, and what better rock to rock than a diamond silhouette ring? It’s cute, it’s simple and you won’t get any evil glares for flaunting your gems during the recession!

M8 classic saddle shoe via Opening Ceremony; $345

Ahh yes, for the longest time the saddle shoe was the dreaded shoe for all private school and country club attending children, but alas it has made its way back into the forefront of the fashion world. I’m in love with this stylish shoe, and it goes great with no socks and a nice pair of shorts. The shoes aren’t easy to find though. That however could be good news for all you people looking to jump on a trend before it gets out of the gates. I was able to find two pairs, but struck out at a lot of the bigger fashion shopping sites. Hopefully you have better luck then I did, but I am plenty pleased with these Opening Ceremonys.

F Troupe Canvas Saddle Shoe in Beige via Revolve; $101 (multiple colorways available)

Need a cheap alternative? My best options would be thrift stores of course, or even Ebay. Expect to see more hitting shelves as the trend gets a bit bigger. I’m personally on the hunt for the classic black/navy and white ones!

A few weeks ago we introduced you to an amazing new online store from Revolve called Forward. Well Forward has decided to take it back to the good old days by offering some really cool vintage clothes from really cool vintage brands. Forward is hosting vintage gear from designers like YSL, Pucci, Burberry and Oscar de la Renta. Head over to Forward and check it out.

Howe Double Breasted Trench $224

Rag & Bone Trench $293

Ok well the images don’t really fit what I’m trying to spark here mostly because I’m pretty sure my idea doesn’t exist yet. So please use the images above to reference what I am trying to say here. I am a huge fan of the trench coat for both men and women, but with the length and amount of your body that it covers it can easily become too much of one color. So I thought of an awesome way to solve that problem, switch the belt with a different colored one from a different trench coat. If you break up your black trench with a tan belt you have an amazing look that will change the way you rock your coat. It’s just like wearing a different colored belt with your pants. I’m looking forward to more people wearing this trend, I will be in the city hunting for mine this weekend. What do you think indies, would you rock the different colored trench belt?

Thanks to Revolve for the pictures.

A favorite online shopping destination of mine has recently launched a sister site that I couldn’t be more excited about. Revolve Clothing has officially launched Forward, which is an online shopping destination for the fashion forward shopper. I love the concept of this site, and you can bet that it is already saved on my bookmarks.

Be sure to head over to Forward to check out the awesome designers they are offering.

I’m going to go ahead and say that 99% of women out there would rather be t-bagged than be caught dead in a T-Bag garment. T-bag’s down right hideous attempt at “vintage” leaves me with the disgusting image of a granola-filled pile of hippie vomit. With a price tag in the $250 range, Helen Keller could have made a better dress out of a thrift store couch from the 60’s. Not even the overnight trash that Kenley from Project Runway makes week after week is this bad. For all of you so called “vintage” kids out there, THIS IS NOT VINTAGE! Get off your lazy ass and go vintage hunting and get the real deal. If you are one of those label hunting douchebags of the world, and you would die for one of these dresses: may God have mercy on your soul!

Thanks but no thanks to Revolve Clothing for the pictures. If their buyer was smart they would cancel all orders from T-Bags just to save their reputation.
