STITCH INTERNATIONAL: ARGENTINE STREET STYLE
This spring break I went on an ASB trip to Buenos Aires. On my time off from volunteering I visited the city and, of course, observed the local fashion!
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...
STITCH INTERNATIONAL: EUROPE MUSIC AWARDS
Hello, all my beautiful Americans! Last night was the EMA’s (Europe Music Awards) in Belfast, Ireland. I don’t know how well-known this event is in the States, but it is all I have heard about in Spain for the past two weeks. And apparently, it’s more similar to an MTV awards show than the AMA’s, because...
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...

Wishing you were at Paris Fashion Week instead of studying for that anthropology test? Check out these street style snaps that put you right in the mix of stylish fashion show attendees.
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...
STITCH INTERNATIONAL: DENIM ON DENIM (ON DENIM)
As I’m sure you’ve noticed, denim had a major comeback last Spring, and it isn’t going anywhere (yet). It’s almost as big as it was when Full House was still on-air. We have colored jeans, 70′s-inspired trousers, overalls, the denim min, the denim jacket and the denim shirt; all of which segue into denim-on-denim. To...
COPENHAGEN STYLE (AN AMERICAN PERSPECTIVE)
On my first day in Copenhagen, something about the people on the streets immediately caught my attention. I didn’t think it would be possible to be surrounded by so many gorgeous, thin, tall blondes who all looked so effortlessly chic… and while I was surprised by the general lack of color in clothing, I definitely...
