The Uni - a list by Alyson

Options for This Page

About this list:

I wore a uniform from 7th grade until I went to college (blue pinstripe skirt rolled at the waist and a white polo)... and I guess this "wear less, more" philosophy has never entirely vanished from my fashion p.o.a.

Shemagh Scarf

First to recommend

Description

Palestinian scarf, Arabian scarf, Shemagh scarf, Saudi scarf, call it what you will (and wear it how you like) you'll love the weight and texture and tassels. Can there ever be too many tassels?

GENETIC DENIM Recessive Legging in Silver

First to recommend

Description

It's a jean! And it's a legging! And It's on sale! And I wear my pair for days in a row, because I skip like that when it comes to fashion. Softest, most lightweight jean ever. Perfect for summer. Grab a pair now and wear them every day. All the cool kids are doing it.

Women's Thunderbird Tan Suede Boat Sole Moccasin

First to recommend

Description

Moccasins. Minnetonka Moccasins, no less. Unexpectedly but wholly obsessed out of the blue with this moccasin. An anti-gladiator reflex? Perhaps. But a Great Lakes-chic look by which I'm willing to stand. To round out the look, a copy of Jim Harrison's luminous Returning to Earth and Grand Valley State University New Music Ensemble's Stephen Reich's Music for 18 Musicians as a soundtrack. Or some Prince.

FreeCity Zip Up

9 people recommended this item

Description

FreeCitySuperShop: the original lifestyle brand at the nexus of beach, art, design, fashion, music, neo-hippie and tee pees. Often copied (ahem, Gap) but never replicated. And worth it. If you get why Malibu at its most Malibu is a worthwhile thing to support.

Three Vodka 750 ml - Wally's Wine and Spirits

First to recommend

Description

The guys at Wally's claim 3 makes you hangover-proof. I am not prepared to comment on that because I am such a lightweight that my drinking must stop before there is grave hangover danger. Extra healthy hippie tip: Make it a superfood by shaking with kombucha

Also, I like how you can attach the bottle to your climbing harness.

J Brand Straight Leg Skinny at Barneys New York

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

OK, here's the deal. You only have permission to get black J Brands if you promise to never ever wash them unless you get mustard on them (or baby barf, which happened to mine).

Put on the tightest ones you're comfortable getting. Then buy a size smaller. This is part of the "never wash them" rigor. Trust me.

Robins Jean Garbot Fitted Bootleg Jean in Dark With Blue Wings

First to recommend

Description

Robin's Jeans are kind of perfect. Mostly it's about the cut. But the wings are cute too... and they come in gold/silver which is perfect for glammy girls.

Cannabis Rose Perfume from Fresh

First to recommend

Description

Neo-hippie perfection according to me. Five-stars and "insanely good, essentially perfect on every level" according to T's nose that knows, Chandler Burr.

And, no, it most certainly does not smell like pot smoke.
