Lately I’ve been working like crazy, and while designing I’ve been listening to tons of music. Although I typically write about fashion, I wanted to share my new favorite bands because I always find it difficult to find new interesting music. So here are the bands/albums that I like the most at this very moment:

I love these toile de jouy slips by
Free People. They are so cute and could even double as a dress if I wished. Such a nice contrast from the normal sort of lingerie you see at the typical stores.

Linda from Honeymilk has a great new
site where you can all purchase her fabulous hand crafted earrings (which I have so many pairs of, all essential, totally an addiction). She also has necklaces and garments for sale as well. This way all of you out-of-state-ers can get a glimpse of what Philly has to offer.

Here are some of my favorite images from Damian Weinkrantz (philadelphia’s favorite bar bouncer)’s new zine, General Truths. The sadness in the general’s eyes is so haunting. I’m totally obsessed with this zine, I keep paging through it over and over again. It’s now available at
Market East (a great website jam packed with local Philly artists) for a mere $3.

Here at Seamsters we often get questions from our readers. I recently got a question from one of our loyal readers, Thea which many readers may be asking themselves this time of year. She was wondering if tights with shorts were fashionable, because she was digging this look shown above. I have to say that normally I would be opposed, but for some reason my intuition says go for it! First off, anything is better than leggings. Secondly, the white tights shown above are soooo Marie Antoinette (which is a good thing, fashion-wise, that is). Just keep in mind, you’ve got to have great legs to pull of shorts, especially when paired with tights because it draws a lot of attention. So, if you look in the mirror and you think you look great go for it. If you look and the mirror and think you look chunky, chances are that you do in fact look chunky.

I love this new
creation by my friends over at Anthropologie, it’s the first printed ipod dock in the whole wide world. This isongbook is the perfect holiday gift for the girl who needs pattern in every part of her life.
