Even though the weather has been teasing us with rain this past week in Davis, it's still the start of summer! You may not feel like swimming right now, but in a few weeks, it will be time to break out the swimsuits. Usually at this time of year, I dig through my closet searching for something swim-appropriate only to find a couple tops and bottoms that are outdated and mismatched. Time to purchase a new bathing suit. A retro trend has been developing for swimwear. This look is refreshing and perfect for the start of a new summer!

French fashion house Chloé has parted ways with creative director Hannah MacGibbon. MacGibbon was initially hired in 2008 after a successful collaboration with the brand on a fragrance launch. Regardless of mostly good runway reviews, and the brand’s leading contribution to a 70’s trend throughout the industry, Chloé is looking for a new creative direction. Designer Clare Waight Keller has been hired to replace MacGibbon after she herself resigned from the same position at Pringle of Scotland earlier this year. Chloé is the most recent of many European fashion houses who have hired new designers, including Dior and Balmain.

WATCH THE TIME

Not many students or young people wear watches anymore. If we need to know the time, we pull out our cell phones and check it there. While this may be convenient for many who keep their phones at hand, it may also be inappropriate for some situations. During a midterm you can’t have your phone out for any reason, and it’s rude to be looking at your phone during a formal meeting or interview. The solution is a good old-fashioned watch. Here are some styles that aren’t so old-fashioned.

This spring clogs are back, and are being sported by the likes of Alexa Chung and Best Coast front woman Bethany Cosentino. H&M has decided to join the trend, and is releasing a collaboration line with clog company Swedish Hasbeens. Swedish Hasbeens started making 70’s inspired clogs in 2006, and have since become one of the fastest growing brands out of Sweden. The usage of environmentally materials is a priority for the company that holds true for the line of six shoe styles developed for H&M. The highly anticipated collection hits stores this Wednesday.

WARBY PARKER: A NEW CONCEPT IN EYEWEAR

image source: www.facebook.com/warbyparker


I’m always excited to buy a new pair of frames, but complications of the purchase can make it a hassle. Glasses are expensive, and then I have to pay another $75 for anti-reflective lenses? I also often encounter a lack of variety when choosing a pair of glasses. The selection that my optometrist carries is limited- every display case is filled with many small, rectangular, wire frames. I always end up settling for pair that is short on personality. The creative minds behind eyewear company Warby Parker don’t want glasses-wearers to settle.

Web-based Warby Parker offers stylish, vintage-inspired prescription glasses for $95 a pair with free-shipping. A wide selection of colors and styles are available for men and women- they even have a monocle! Warby Parker also operates under the “buy a pair, give a pair” principle: for every pair of glasses bought, they’ll donate another pair to those don’t have access to glasses. Skeptical about buying glasses online? Warby Parker has a virtual try-on option that allows you to get an idea of what you will look like with the glasses on. There’s also a five day home try-on if you want to handle the glasses in person before you decide.
