An Alterable Adornment

TUESDAY ACCESSORY
Recommendation: Bridgett, TREND Staff Writer

Summer has barely arrived in San Diego this November. In this way we are lucky. It's not scorching hot but it's not too cold that we have to wear endless layers of clothing to protect us. San Diego's weather is just right.

Summer scarves are a fun accessory to have handy in your closet. You can wear them in a variety of ways. shoprusse.com provides an amazing collage of different ways to wear summery scarves like the ones shown above. There is no "best" way to wear a scarf. It's really whatever way strikes your fancy. You can wear it with a bow to to the side of the neck for a sweet accent, simply draped around the shoulders, or with a scarf clip for something extra trendy. Or, if you really want to push the envelope, try wearing the scarf wrapped around your head, or as a belt.

The scarf shown above is a collaboration between artist Inka Jarvinen and designer Minna Parikka.

LANVIN - H&M

MONDAY MUSE
Recommendation: Alice, TREND Staff Co-Editor

The upcoming designer Alber Elbaz of the French Couture house Lavin, is the next one in line to be featured at H&M. H&M has been featuring designers for a while: this is not new news. The reason why Lavin's participation is so monumental is because Elbaz is almost exclusively couture and with couture, comes a pretty price-tag. Alber is bringing high fashion to a lower price.

The anticipated collection will feature 30 pieces. And let me tell you, his collection definitely does not look cheap. There is not doubt that this collection with sell out.

Muse over the idea of what kind of fashion possibilities could be possible if all types of clothing were affordable to the general public.

“f it’s not edible, it’s not food. If it’s not wearable, it’s not fashion.”-Elbaz



BACK SOON

Apologies............ back soon this week xoxo.
