YOUR NEXT LOOK: NEON PINK
You can’t escape it – the neon trend for this upcoming spring is everywhere. While Chicago temperatures are still in the mid-40s, diverting from the fact that April has in fact arrived, the Spring 2012 runways illustrated a massive explosion of color, tropical prints and most importantly, the introduction of neon in our daily...

Want to help out STITCH? As an entirely student-run publication, STITCH serves the Northwestern community its daily dose of fashion, culture and photography through two print issues per year, in addition to daily blogging and online magazines.

CREDIT, DEBIT, CASH: THE FUR BAG
This past weekend, I went to London as a vacation away from vacation – perfect timing with the first appearances of Christmas lights, markets and general holiday season festivities. Of course, always being on the lookout for style, one of the first things I noticed was the winter fashion of London women as compared to...
STITCH INTERNATIONAL: A TASTE OF HOME WITH DIANE ARBUS
For my History of Photography class last week, we took an evening field trip to the Musée Jeu de Paume, a museum dedicated solely to photography in the heart of the Tuileries gardens. Having expected endless expositions of 19th century Parisian photography, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the focus of our trip was...
STITCH INTERNATIONAL: A BOHEMIAN IN PARIS
A bohemian look was something I’d never really considered before coming to Paris; however, I found it in the one city I’d never expect. Parisians with their Chanel skirt suits, elegant leather handbags and Audrey Hepburn pearls, going for a downtown look of loafers, plaid and brown suede? Never. Yet somehow – call it a...
BLACK IS THE NEW BLACK
As much as I love the whimsical, fashion-forward styling of Parisians during Fashion Week, when it gets to be really cold outside all I want to reach for is a straight, sharp, all-black no-fuss outfit. And now that temperatures have at last dipped below 50 degrees, I finally have an excuse to...
STITCH INTERNATIONAL: WALKABLE HEELS FROM ISABEL MARANT
Upon hearing before I arrived that women in France wore heels everyday, I scoffed – no one would put themselves through that much pain everyday just to look chic, right? Absolutely wrong. No matter how much walking one is planning on doing or how many miles of metro transfers are involved over the course of...
STITCH INTERNATIONAL: THE TEA DRESS
It’s easy to spot an American in Paris, most notably for the level of skin being shown. Parisians maintain a certain innate level of conservativeness in their style – while a spaghetti-strap tank top and denim cutoffs may sound to us like a perfectly reasonable summer outfit for beating the heat, it’s a look that...
STITCH INTERNATIONAL: THE OUTLANDISH SIDE OF PARISIAN STYLE
Bonjour de Paris! Happily, I will be spending my fall quarter in this amazing city, where the women I pass on the street everyday are ten times more stylish than ninety-nine percent of the United States population. Hopefully their fashion savvy will rub off on me and I’ll return to Northwestern with that special, put-together...
BLOGGER SPOTLIGHT: FASHION SQUAD
I admire Carolina Engman for her stunning Swedish good looks, her airy, ethereal style, and almost above all, her beautifully designed blog. Most webpages are too busy and extremely cluttered with ads and links – but Fashion Squad thankfully gets back to the essential basics and focuses on what we all read fashion blogs for:...
