Feeling me Lyrical.

During a hike to the upper emerald pools in Zion National Park, Dorothy caught my eye. She was another person like myself who was a little over dressed for a hike!



Dorothy is wearing a polyester floral print shirt that has a matching neck tie. She is also wearing aqua pants that perfectly match the color in her shirt. And to top off the aqua match party she has pebble earrings in the same color. When I asked her about why she chose the earrings she spoke to my soul.



"Everything has to match!"

Maybe matching is out, but I'm still a fan of matchymatchiness.

P.S. Dorthoy is from Provo, isn't everyone nowadays.

Another Day at the Smiths Market Place

Recently T.I.N and I decided that Smiths Market Place is Salt Lake City's fashion capitol. When we go to clubs, parties and shows we see some good photo worthy people but never the amount we see at the SMP. So here is our newest find.

Kalie and Haley are originally from Provo.



Kalie's dress is from a San Francisco thrift store. Her Moccasins are from Moab, UT. Her belt is from D.I. Kalie buys most of her clothing from D.I. Kalie is a big believer of "Belt Magic". Do belts improve almost any and every outfit? She is excited to wear dresses without tights this spring.



Haley's common garb is skirt-tights-boots. For some odd reason as soon as I saw her I couldn't get the song tainted love out of my head. Was it the glasses? Her clothes are a collection of second hand store finds. She is excited to wear her boots without tights and sleeveless shirts. Haley recently moved to SLC from Provo, what a great add.

Relax and Take Notes

Along with finding a lot of cute clothes in Coal Umbrella we also found Kaylie.



Kaylie is a student at BYU but has yet to declared a major. She is a big dress/skirt fan. Her dress in this photo is from Platos Closet and only put her back $10. Her undershirt was purchased in Athens, Georgia at Angora's Closet (Always someone else's closet.) Her grandmother made the vest. The entire outfit exudes a carefree, fun attitude. I enjoy all the prints on top of each other that make a complex texture.

This was Kaylie's second trip to Coal Umbrella. She was purchasing a tennis dress and a floral jacket. Her spring outfit will consist of lightweight . . . DRESSES!

MODE

Provo, seriously. WHAT! What?

I have gone my whole life with a set-in-stone stereotype about you and your residents. With one little 2 hour trip my stereotype has been terminated. Here are some reasons why: 



MODE is a little store located on 45 N. University Ave. We discovered it by accident last year when a trip to an Ephraim art gallery was stopped due to awful snow and we had to stop in Provo. Mode has a monopoly on some of the best brands. It's the only place you can buy Nudie jeans in the state. They also carry Spickwak jackets and recently got a new shipment of Gentle Fawn for spring.





MODE also has a t-shirt bar, where one could make customized T's.



For a boutique MODE is reasonably priced and has excellent sales.



MODE. Worth a trip to Provo.

P.S. If anyone wants to buy us Nudie Jeans, we'll be your friend for life.

All the Nightmares Came Today

Katie works at MODE. She describes her style as more on the Artsy, Edgey side. She purchases a lot of her clothing from MODE and enjoys the styles that come through the store. Katie is a student at BYU and is studying psychology. She is also a musician and plays folk guitar.



Her outfit is a hodge podge of commercial stores. Her shoes are from Payless. Shirt from Forever 21, because honestly isn't that everyone's guilty pleasure. Its not always about were you get something but more about the mix and matching.
