Easiest Costume Ever



Whether it was a last minute invite, indecision, no time, or sheer laziness, there will always be those of us who need a costume basically yesterday for a Halloween bash.  So what is the easiest solution ever?  Go Goth.  Yup.  Dress all in black, maybe use some of the temporary black hair color, tread heavily in black boots, pile on some silver skull and dagger jewelry, and use some heavy heavy eye liner along with that black mascara (yes, even you, guys; especially you).  Most of us already own something black and so this outfit could essentially cost little to no money.  But even if you have to shell out a little bit, it is worthwhile in the long run, as black will always be something you can wear again and again. 

So get in touch with your dark side. Shop for goth NOW.

Slasher Flick

Graham & Spencer "Manhattan" Top - Buy it Here

Karina Grimaldi "Mariana" Top - Buy it Here

Karina Grimaldi "Romana" Top - Buy it Here



Exactly one week until Halloween!  Are you ready?  And what will you be?  Want to be ghoulish now without actually looking like a true freak until the 31st?  Then begin by sporting tops that remind us of slasher movies.  Ripped shoulders, slits on the arms - these are the things of horror stories.  Yet when the slits are placed just right and sewn up perfectly, the tops become less fright and more fashion.

So get your creepy freak on now, before the real scares begin...SHOP

Fall Hard





As we slowly creep further and further into Fall (which its really quite hard to believe that we are already there), all of the things that are synonymous with this time of year once more begin to fill our heads.  Pumpkins, ghouls, cobwebs, and zombies.  Colored leaves, grey days, and stashes of candy.  And ravens.  The black birds seem to somehow always creep their way into all the corners of Fall.  They adorn the skies of haunted houses, perch on headstones in both real and fake (i.e. front lawns on October 31st) graveyards, and raid cornfields, scarecrows or not.  Edgar Allan Poe paid poetic homage to them in a classically chilling tale.  The raven cannot be overlooked at this time of year.  Nor should it be overlooked ever in the closets of men.  Raven Denim is a line that has been perfectly crafted for years now and has gained a cult following who all know what their talking about.  The fits are so sleek and so flatteringly manly, that you can be sure they will always hit the mark when you leave the house.  The perfect jean for night, they also carry their sophisticated weight during the day, giving a cleaned up crispness even to your rattiest t-shirt.

Wrap It Up




One of the few things we can count on every year is the changing of the seasons.  Not always on time, with the cold seeming to come in much too soon in the Fall and overstay its welcome far too long into Spring.  Though an end to the summer heat is nice and the beauty of the changing leaves is unbeatable, to welcome sub-freezing temperatures is not exactly something we do with open arms.  But it is a fact of life and the least we can do is prepare ourselves a bit.  This AG scarf seems like a seamless way to introduce into our wardrobes something that will become a staple for the cold months to come. 

Bring on the cold.  Start HERE.
