“Scraps of lace and beaten leather, a jacket in soft pink rabbit fur and a large basket embroidered with sequins, embroidery that sparkles and fuchsia that snaps… Without any complexes, the Manoush style applies the bohemian charm and the mix of types.  Manoush is truly “a girl’s thing”.”

Manoush is known for sophisticated styles that blend playful girliness with seductive sex appeal.  The first “real” collection was winter 2004-2005.  Featured in top fashion magazines such as Cosmopolitan, Glamour, Teen Vogue, InStyle and Elle, Manoush is quickly becoming a necessity for any girl’s closet.  Celebrities have even taken notice and action, including Mischa Barton who wore a Manoush silk shirt at a movie premiere. This chic French Label can be found at prestigious points of sale all over the world, and at your convenience, here at the Edge of Urge boutique and edgeofurge.com.  If you wish to obtain items in a vintage style with just the right touch of flashy details, be sure to check out the many beautiful pieces of Manoush.

Labeling themselves as a part of the resistance league while growing up, Davora Linder and Camilla Eckersley used this as inspiration for their label’s name, Prairie Underground.  The brand is a Seattle-based line of hoodies, dresses, tanks and coats.    Their combination of masculine, muddy colors contrasts with their feminine, yet practical structures.   This progressive sense of style puts a pasture spin on everyday garments with body-hugging shapes and practical details.  But the most impressive of all is that Prairie Underground’s clothing is made from convenient wash-and-wear organic cotton or hemp fabrics.  Jessica Alba and Leelee Sobieski are two fans of Prairie Underground, and if you click here, you can be too.

Dudes: We obviously are lovin’ William Rast denim’s, pictured here in dark grey, and so are plenty of your favorite celebrities such as a frequent shopper of ours, Sophia Bush.  Put with a white and black Blood is the new Black tee garnished with a Lifetime Collective electric blue hoodie is sure to spice up any guy’s wardrobe.  Strap on some Zuriick ankle cut sneaks, and for the cherry on top, add a Goorin fedora detailed with a small feather.

Tip:  If you’re trying to turn your everyday ordinary outfit around, wearing a simple fedora can take your outfit to the next level.

Gals:  Yeah, it might be the gloomy season where you are, but this outfit will be sure to brighten up your days.  The bold take on your everyday cardigan by Industry layered over this Mary Meyer tee shows you can keep warm and still allow your true colors to show.  We paired this with Paper Denim bright blue jeans with a priceless pair of 80%20 mary janes in smoke.  To complete this colorful ensemb, adding in an eggplant Vyntage clutch from Latico pulled it all together.

Tip:  Just because everyone else is wearing blacks and greys doesn’t mean you can’t stray from the rest.  Accenting your wardrobe with splashes of bold colors is the perfect way to look hot in the quickly coming cold months.
