Revolve Clothing

In honor of the spooktacular festivities today, here's a little inspiration. Adorably gothic bat clothes pins! (Oxymoronic? I think not.)

The design minds at Art Lebedev Studio had a mission: Do something before October 31st. Their solution? Bat-shaped "Vespertilium" clothes pins that let neighbors know you're ready for the haunting season and scare mean, nasty stains away.

Personally, I think these batty little pins would make doing laundry a lot more fun all year-round!

Break out, block out: Go bold and blocked for fall and winter with geometric shapes and sharp lines.

The color-block trend that emerged for summer is stronger than ever as temperatures drop. Channel the iconic artistry of Mondrian or the mod squad styling of the 1960s. Layer with solid colors and simple shapes and keep the accessories minimal for a sleek, chic look. Like your math teacher once said, your geometry deserves the attention!

"When I first saw Takashi Murakami's artwork, I smiled and wondered,
'Where did this explosion come from?
Who was responsible for this collision of what seems part psychedelia, part manga, and well--ART!'"
-- Marc Jacobs

The anxiously-awaited Murakami exhibition at the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art opens this weekend. Tracing Takashi Murakami's artistic development from his creature-like sculptures of the 1990s to his cartoonish "superflat" painting style to his high-end handbag collaboration with Louis Vuitton, the exhibition is a J-pop dream for art, fashion, and film enthusiasts alike.

Murakami for Louis Vuitton
Blurring the line between art and commerce, the MOCA will also unveil a fully-operational Louis Vuitton boutique, showcasing the artist's collaboration with LV designer Marc Jacobs on their iconically whimsical line of luxe leather goods. Shopping as art form? We like the sound of that!

And in other Murakami news, the artist is collaborating with BFF Kanye West on a new line of jewelry. Earlier this month, Kanye attended Paris Fashion Week wearing "a huge gold Manga-style diamond-studded pendant" as he sat front row. No conflict diamonds, we hope!

Everyone has their style obsessions. What's that one item you always crave, and always cave into buying? I am a bag and boots girl, through and through, with so many "favorites" it's hard to count. For me, fall and winter mean scoping out new boots for rainy days and layered looks. It's a seasonal "chore" I truly cherish.

This weekend, the LA Times fashion team reported that the season's must-have purchase is the chunky knit. Big, wooly sweaters in substantial weaves, cozy-chic sweater dresses, and beautiful cardigans will get you through winter with style and grace, they insist.

P.S. The LA Times is also reporting that spats are back this season. Transform summer heels into winter booties, add pizzazz to your favorite boots, layer with colorful tights and knit leggings and you'll hit two trends in one foul swoop for fall. Get your Posso the Spats right here.

Deere Colhoun handbags exude classic sophistication with a fresh twist. Think flirty frame bags with snake-embossing and washed leather carry-alls that work as hard as you do. Celeb stylist Britt Bardo said of the line's snake-embossed bags, "I can't believe this isn't real snakeskin. It's the best I've seen." Not too slouchy, eh?

Designer Lindsey Colhoun is no industry newcomer. As former co-designer and co-founder of Revolve favorite, Goldenbleu, Colhoun parlayed her love for fashion and handbag know-how into her new labor of love. Like many designers, Colhoun's ideal customer is herself. The Malibu-based designer describes her personal style and designs as "casual and simple but with a bit of an edge." This streamlined chic reflects her beachy-glam surroundings but traverses just as easily into big city, fashion-forward style.

As a fashion-savvy mom on-the-go, Colhoun searched high and low for a "kickaround bag with with a styley twist." Thus, the line's first bag, the roomy and endlessly practical Sienna bag in gorgeous washed Italian lambskin was born. "It's the perfect everyday bag," she says, and Rachel Bilson couldn't agree more. Bilson sports the black snake version (seen below in InStyle).

With incredible attention to detail and craftsmanship (handmade locally in LA with Italian leathers and hardware), Deere Colhoun makes bags that go with everything and last for years... and psst! We just got a new shipment of styles and colors!
