Jack BB Dakota x Milk Teeths Contest Winner!

We teamed up with Jack BB Dakota and the lovely Ashley of Milk Teeths to offer you the chance to style and win an outfit from Jack to get your wardrobe ready for fall. Ashley, our style savvy judge of the styled outfits held your words to a high standard, and was looking for sartorially inclined prose in addition to a cute collection of clothes. Everyone impressed in this contest of style and semantics, but Ashley was especially taken with the following entry by Amber Rose Schmid:

As I rushed across campus in the somewhat warm August sun, the Cahill Dress in China Blue would catch the breeze. Books stacked to my eyelashes, a kind gentleman would undoubtedly hold the door for a gal in a dress. Should the weather be less forgiving, my Rory Jacket in Dark Khaki would keep me warm while allowing a glimpse at my frock and maintaining a somewhat muted color scheme. The canvas-like texture of the dress paired with the corduroy jacket would lend to the visual aesthetics.

Ashley said of the winner, “Loved her entry, so descriptive and she put together a cute outfit to boot!”

Congratulations are in order for Amber! Her novelistic description of the fantastic fall look she put together has won her the Cahill Dress and the Rory Jacket — just in time for her return to campus. Thank you everyone for your great submissions, and as always… keep your eyes peeled for more contests!

Rory McGrath Swatch watch

I feel like I shop for a living, so when I was down there all I really cared to do was walk around, eat, drink wine and take pictures. Shopping was really the last thing on my list despite the deals to be had. However, I do have a little habit of picking up Swatch watches at International airports. I had just recently lost my clear Swatch I bought with left over Yen at Narita, so I bought the Rory McGrath special artist edition Swatch at the EZE airport am lovin’ it. Pick it up at your local Swatch store for $60. Continue reading
