STREET STYLE: Nasty Gal Relaunch Party

Last night we attended the re-launch party of one of our favorite online retailers, NASTY GAL, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. Held at the fabulous ROOSEVELT HOTEL’S TROPICANA BAR in the heart of HOLLYWOOD, this party was packed with fashionistas! Well dressed people everywhere, an amazing DJ, free PBR…it was reminiscent of a Young, Hot, Hollywood party. And all of our TOP TRENDS were represented…ASYMMETRICAL HEMS, TROPICAL, PLEATS, ROCK ‘N’ ROLL, TIE-DYE, FLORALS, STUDS and ANIMAL PRINTS just to name a few (well, more than a few). We were more than impressed with the men’s fashion…DENIM VESTS and STUDS were definitely in abundance. If this crowd is any indication of NASTY GAL’S supporters, then they have a devoted band of followers. We think we can agree when we say that we are VERY excited for the future of this amazing company.

LAS VEGAS TRADE SHOWS: Men’s Spring 2012

It’s our favorite time of year…the TRADE SHOWS in LAS VEGAS!!!  Once again, we were blown away by the amazing collections from some of the newer and the more established brands.  As for Men’s, we saw lots of MILITARY, ACTIVE, PLAID, DENIM, and one-of-a-kind WOVENS at the PROJECT and ENK shows.

This season, the Men’s LINES WE LOVE represent these trends all across the board. CALM, PUBLISH and 11 AFTER 11 took a new approach to basic wovens and knits…accent pockets in LEOPARD, CHAMBRAY and STRIPES seemed to pop out of the fabric.  We saw a huge trend in WOVENS that was fresh and innovative – taking the essential men’s button down to a new level.  UNDER 2 FLAGS did a great job of capturing the MILITARY trend, but with a really cool twist…think multiple CARGO pockets and new CAMO print.  The GYPSY 05 and RHEYN collections are perfect for active-inspired basics.  But these aren’t your boring basics…bright color and ethnic undertones make for anything but average.

The Men’s collections never disappoint with their creativity and swagger.  Check out LINES WE LOVE and more of our FAVORITE items below (click to enlarge):
