HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Happy New Year from Thread Ethic!
Hope you're night is going to be as spectacular as ours!

RED PLAID SWEATSHIRT

Yep, this is a men's red buffalo plaid sweatshirt (SUPER comfy and SUPER warm). Melody paired it under her thinner blue plaid H&M coat and topped it off with her fur ear flap hat (where she cannot remember for the life of her where she got it) and Ray Ban glasses.  And there you go! An easier winter go-to outfit for you.

HOLIDAY PARTY MATERNITY

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year you guys! With all the holiday loveliness we forgot about you for a minute. But here's a taste of what Desirae will be wearing on New Year's Eve (well if she feels up for it). We thought this was a great balance of sweet, with the lace, and edgy, with the leather. And ultimately it reminds us of this dress from Zara that we both about died over. Desirae's dress is H&M, jacket is Zara and shoes will be highlighted soon with another look. But until then, just suffice it to know that we LOVE them. 

HAPPY HOLIDAYS ALL YOU LOVELIES!

EMMA STONE IN DANIEL VOSOVIC

Although this look is a bit short, we couldn't resist how cute she looks. It's also inspiration in color. (We'll have to try the nude with grey combo soon.) It also led us into finding more about the designer, who we are loving at the moment. We'll definitely show you more looks of his in the future. Until then, enjoy!

OUR TAKE ON VALENTINO SS '13

So you saw us post about the Valentino Spring 2013 collection here. Now you get to see the look that inspired this post. The actual Valentino blouse is sold here, but we'd rather spend that amount in different areas of life. So we created our own blouse with a white button down, black high neck sheer blouse and black fitted tee underneath. If you're a bit of a seamstress you could always take an old white button down and cut the collar and cuffs. We just liked our blouse and white button down too much to do that to them :(. Anyway, we put it together with our black chiffon skirt (similar here) and called it our Valentino. 

(By the way, there are always nicer, pricier version of items that are similar to ours.  We don't know about you guys,  but we're always looking for a deal. Let us know if you'd like us only to put the nicer stuff, or do you guys even look at the links? Just trying to gauge the quality of what you all would like, because it's really much easier to find the more expensive items.)
