Mondrian Blazer – Another Uniqlo Jacket Makeover

June 14, 2016
with 3 Comments CraftsFashion

I really can't leave blazers alone, can I? This time, I bought a plain off-white cotton blazer from Uniqlo that was around $40, so it wasn't such a risk if I messed it up. My inspiration for this blazer makeover was Piet Mondrian. I love the graphic simpl ...

Floral and Leaf Blazer

May 23, 2016
with 19 Comments CraftsFashion

I've been in a floral clothing kick this spring, so when I received my Sizzix dies this month for Eileen Hull's Inspiration Team challenge, I decided I'd "make it work" with my floral fashion craze. This black and white blazer was inspired by a suit I spo ...

The Return of the Frock Coat

October 26, 2015
with No Comment Fashion

The frock coat was a long jacket worn for formal occasions during the Victorian and Edwardian periods. Men don't wear frock coats anymore. Heck, it's hard enough to get guys to wear a suit or blazer now. So why did I recently buy this frock coat from Topm ...

My Favorite Doc Martens: From the Hogarth Collection

October 11, 2015
with No Comment Fashion

In the 90s, I owned a basic pair of black Dr. Martens shoes and some serious Dr. Martens boots. But in the new millennium, the company has really upped its fashion game with fun new collections every season. I own several pairs, including brogues with red ...

Pop Art Look: Inspired by Lichtenstein and Warhol

October 5, 2015
with No Comment Fashion

One of my biggest design influences is pop art, especially that of Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein. The long sleeve tee I'm wearing here is from Uniqlo, which always has a variety of licensed Warhol apparel in its SPRZ line. The shoes are from a few seas ...

My First J. Crew Ludlow Suit: Ludlow Suit Review

September 28, 2015
with No Comment Fashion

A few years ago, J. Crew went into the suit business big time and introduced the Ludlow suit. I saw it in the catalog, and it looked awesome. The fit was supposedly fitted, but I had been burned before by suits that claim to be "slim fit," yet are so boxy ...

Union Jack Blazer: Uniqlo Jacket Lapel Hack

September 21, 2015
with No Comment Craft AttitudeFashion

First of all, let's get one thing straight. I am not wearing confederate flags on my lapels. They're British union jacks. (I used to be a British citizen before I was an American citizen.) And now that we've got that out of the way, let's talk about the b ...

The British are Coming: College Blazer and Striped Pants

September 9, 2015
with No Comment Fashion

Not many people know this, but I used to be British. Well, a British citizen anyway. I was born in Hong Kong, which was, until 1997, a British colony. When I became an American citizen, I had to give up my British citizenship, which was kind of sad becaus ...

Topman Sweater and Hat Hacks

August 31, 2015
with No Comment Fashion

I ordered this black and white sweater online from Topman, but when I got it in the mail, I did not like the length of it. It was too long, going down past my hips. I kept asking everybody who could sew, or who knew something about fashion, if it was poss ...

Uniqlo Short Suit: Tailor Made for this Heat Wave

August 24, 2015
with 2 Comments Fashion

Long before Pharrell Williams was wearing shorts with his tuxedo jacket, I was wearing shorts with my suit jacket because, well, I did win "best legs" in the 8th grade yearbook poll. A couple of years ago, I bought this short suit at Uniqlo in New York. J ...
