Trius Garments

I wear a hat every single day, so I'm always on the lookout for new hat styles to wear! I'm really into snapbacks and fitted caps recently! I have quite a few of them, so I can always match to what I'm wearing that day! 

Drake once said, "Text from a centerfold, I ain't reply, let 'em know I read it though," and I've never loved a lyric so much, because I can't tell you how many times I've done that. So when I first found Trius Garments, one of their most popular hats, went hand in hand with that idea, with their "I miss you read at 1:43AM," I got a good laugh out of it, and followed their Instagram for more! Trius has some tees, but I feel like they're mostly about their hats, and these hats are major!! I think they go very well with the whole 90's, internet, pale, minimal, style that's been very popular recently!

Definitely check out all of their merchandise, on the Trius website, but I also love their Instagram feed (@triusgarments) , so check them both out!

Prepping Your Wardrobe for Fall/Winter

As we all know, but probably don't want to admit to ourselves, Summer 2015 is coming to an unfortunate end. Anyone else feel like they did absolutely NOTHING? I can always tell Summer is just about over when I start to see back to school commercials, and advertisements with deals and sales! It's amazing because who doesn't like a good back to school sale discount. It's a bittersweet time, but we can all get through it together! Let's talk Fall and Winter fashion, shall we?

Fall is my favorite season of the year because of the fashion! I love cool weather, layering, leather, plaid, and knitted sweaters, and all of the above are fashion factors in the upcoming season! The photo above is of me last Winter, wearing my Vile "Some Like it Vile" bodysuit! 

So in celebration for the upcoming season, I'll be giving a quick run down of some pieces I think are pretty essential for the Fall/Winter season fashions!

THE LEATHER JACKET / BLACK BOOTS

"I thought my life would suddenly improve if I got a leather jacket, and I was literally 100% totally right." What more can I say about a leather jacket, honestly? Also, black booties, or combat boots instantly make an outfit look 10 times more bad-ass, with so little effort. Wear both of these babies together, and you'll be stopping traffic.

THE LONG CARDIGAN / PLAID

A long, draped cardigan is the perfect cherry on top of just about any outfit. An outfit as simple as a t-shirt, and denim shorts (or dungarees like shown here) can be amplified with a cardigan like this one, to give it an instant Fall, chic vibe!

THE DENIM SHIRT / BOOTS+SOCKS

One of my favorite things about fall fashion is mixing baggy, oversized silhouettes with tight, fitted silhouettes like this oversized denim shirt, and these velvet leggings! Another favorite is wearing socks peeked out over a pair of boots, over leggings like I imagine wearing this outfit! 

SHORTS+TIGHTS / BOMBER JACKET

Even though the weather will be cooling down, that doesn't mean you have to pack away your shorts just yet! Throw a pair of tights under them, and you've got a signature fall fashion style! I personally don't get very cold on my legs, so this works for me through fall and most of winter as well! 

I'd say my biggest inspiration for Fall fashion would have to be NYC based fashion blogger Luanna Perez of LE HAPPY! I've been following her for so many years now, and it's so amazing to see how far her blog has gone, and all of the opportunities she's been given!  Her looks are so well put together, and I love to see all of her looks in the Fall and Winter season!

TURNCOAT

A little while back we had the chance to have Turncoat front man Jimmy Ash stop by HQ and spend some time telling us what they have rolling out in the near future and talk philosophy of the band! 3:10 in he has a good rant about what Turncoat is all about. So check it out and let us know what you think! -Aren
