Kristen couldn't believe it that I was wearing sneakers today. I haven't been wearing them that much this Winter, but as the weather warms up, I think I might be taking my good ole sneakers out more. These are my casual favorites that were bequeathed to me in college from a good friend, thanks Buckley!

I love these pants by Toddland. They are the perfect relaxed, yet slightly slim chinos. One of my favorite details of the pants is the singular seesuckered belt loop on the front right belt line. Something about the belt and beat up shoes, maybe the white washed wall too, reminds me of a 1930's worker- and I'm not hating it. Fashion Goggled much?


Kenneth Cole Collection


Last week, I was invited to preview Kenneth Cole's new line, Kenneth Cole Collection. The preview was dark & moody and reminded me of the Met's Savage Beauty exhibit of Alexander McQueen. Lining the walls, huge projections of models walked from screen to screen offering dead-faced, one liners that only a model could do so well. The back wall, seen above, showcased men's and women's key pieces in oxblood, deep cobalt & black.

Point-y toe, python wedges in black
Hair-calf/leather oxford boots in deep cobalt
Perfect double-breasted coat with zipper detailing

The collection was incredibly luxe and refined, especially seen in fabrication. For women, hair-calf skirts & over the knee boots, python backpacks, sheer tops & peplums. For men, crocodile creepers, hair-calf oxford boots, sneakers & jackets, & leather pants. In a nutshell, I want the entire collection.



Kristen and I didn't get a chance to shoot that day so I took some quick Instagram's (landonmcgregor) of my outfit of the day. First, I was lucky enough to get my hands on a piece of the Kenneth Cole Collection- it is an amazing black leather envelope that has my initials in silver inside! I wore it with deep olive Levi's, a green sweater and this amazing striped shirt underneath. As the thread goes down each side of the stripes on the shirt, the thread changes colors. I didn't even notice this detail when I thrifted it a few weeks ago!

t-shirt-ed

A breezy day calls for a breezy t-shirt. I rarely wear t-shirts, but I love this one cause is made of linen. I have a few of these linen shirts in different colors from Alternative Apparel & I couldn't love them more. They are the perfect weight for that effortlessly cool fit I am always looking for in a tee.

all green everything

As always, I have a current obsession, and no, it's not with THAT mint green acne sweater. It's a much darker version of the hue. It's a range really from pea green to dark moss to hunter green. I want it in everything- shorts, belts, shoes, etc.

Green Dream in Givenchy

I believe it started with Riccardo Tisci for Givenchy's Spring 2012 Menswear collection. The largely white collection was filled with t-shirts, kilts, leggings, sweatshirts & baseball caps. But the collection really shined with its symmetrical, kaleidoscope-y birds of paradise print in moss green with streaks of hot pink, purple & blue.
