In Character: Patti Mayonnaise

image

image

Patti Mayonnaise is the ultimate girl next door—Doug Funnie would back me up on that. She’s adorable but accessible, tomboyish but sweet. She has good hair. It’s safe to say that Skeeter and all the rest of the 11 ½-year-old boys in Bluffington prolly had a thing for her, too. —erica

Have you seen a more approachable sweater (from Equipment)?

The sort of Carven skirt that would make even Porkchop go a little weak in the knees.

image

Bensimon shoes—fit for her various athletic pursuits.

You wouldn’t believe all our “In Character” action. Dive in.

Next Level: Lips

In honor of V-day, y’all, —erica

LEVEL I: Delfina Delettrez shows your wrist a little love.

LEVEL II: Who says you gotta stick to red and pink? Roseanna gets all moody with her black ‘n blue print.

LEVEL III: Lizzie Fortunato demonstrates that SWAK works even better if you employ embroidery.

LEVEL IV: Markus Lupfer—never the type to hold back.

More four-part harmonies this way…

It’s not too late in the season to buy a sweater if it’s as sick as this Burkman Bros one. —erica

Weather Vain: Breckenridge, Colorado - 10 With a Chance of Snow

You guys! I’m on a ski trip! And while I couldn’t be more thrilled to be slaloming my way around Breck, I wouldn’t be too bummed (ok, I’d be THRILLED) if it would warm up, oh, 20 degrees. Here, an attempt to stay warm. —erica

Clockwise from top left:

+ The sort of Fleabags tote you can pack with extra hats and gloves that you’ll no doubt need.

+ Teensy Blanca Monrós Gómez earrings—because the thought of any more metal than this touching your skin…

+ A scarf from A Peace Treaty that’s cozy yet stylin’ enough for dinner at Modis.

+ A Rag & Bone sweater that would look pretty freaking cute with a turtleneck underneath, if you wanted another layer.

+ This Kai-aakmann parka is the anti-fleece.

+ Mou boots: If Uggs had a cousin who always had a pristine manicure…

+ Mother cords—just warm enough for a (short) walk down Main Street.

+ These Imoni gloves are ready for hot chocolate at Peak 7—or a bourbon at the Breckenridge Distillery

There’s a lot more “Weather Vain” to be had. Right this way…

Next Level: Cats

All of a sudden, it’s totally cool to embrace your inner cat lady. These are our four fave ways to get kitty happy. —erica

LEVEL I: Wrapped around your neck, the meow motif of the Leah Goren scarf is distorted in a super-cool way.

LEVEL II: So ladylike and grown-up! 10 Crosby by Derek Lam makes a white cat print look crazy-easy to pull off.

LEVEL III: If anyone tries to talk smack on your Pretty Snake sweater, sic one of these 11 kitties on them. 

LEVEL IV: Wildfox: Never afraid to go there. Here, an update on the already-challenging white swimsuit that happens to be undeniably rad.
