The Puffy Coat/Vest!

There is something I have always loved about the figure-compromising shape of a puffy coat or vest. Let's be real, they're not the most flattering things in the world but I really think that ads to their appeal. There is something really awesome, and kind of adorable about walking around as ball of fluff. Think about all of the cool things you can compare that to: adorable baby duck, or a cool snow man, a little panda bear, a hostess sno ball, a pile of feathers. The list is literally endless. Not to mention THEY'RE SO WARM! We have puffy coats and vests in a rainbow of colors and a wide variety of styles.









P.s...Is anyone else thinking about The Rain video after reading that? Check out Missy Elliot in the puffiest ensemble I've ever seen here.

Jackson Quall: New Works


Jackson Quall is a 25 year old photographer and disk jockey by profession, who's a barista in Madison Valley in his spare time. He was born in Mount Vernon, enjoyed his adolescence in Everett, and from high school on has lived primarily in Seattle. His father being a photographer himself, started Jackson off young, gladly letting him loose with his camera. He has been shooting steadily since.


"This series of photographs has been taken over the last few months. For the sake of simplicity I'll say they are improvised. I used spontaneity to my fullest advantage. I have my camera and a tripod with me most all the time and I always keep an open mind. I don't hesitate to set up a shot if I feel it necessary, but rarely do I come up with the concept more than a moment before I shoot. I photograph anything around me I think is beautiful or interesting or that I think could result in a powerful image." - Jackson Quall

Lost and Found!

This happens from time to time...someone comes in the store and says "Oh my god I totally had a sweater just like this!" Or "Holy moly! I wore this dress to prom!" This happens, of course because manufactures make more than one shirt or jacket for a line of clothing (but saying that kid of takes the magic out of this blog post doesn't it?). Also, to my knowledge no one has ever uncovered their exaaaaact same sweater, pair of pants, or shoes etc.

Chris, a real friend of the store came in last week and had one of those moments. "Oh my god I wore this vest in my 4th grade picture!" And today Chris brought in evidence. Check it out. And also, please check out Chris's sweet glasses and radical long locks. Photographed below Chris is the cool vest that is still up for grabs. THOSE ARE CATS!!!

Poncho Sweatshirt/ Drug Rug/Hippie Blanket Pullover

It really doesn't matter what you want to call it. It is cool, and it's going to keep you warm. Your older pothead cousin probably had one in the 90's. My little sister's guitar teacher had one when we were in elementary school, he also had a huge Jamaican flag on his ceiling (ya dig?). But that's beside the point. No longer for sage toting, incense burning, kombucha brewing Seattle types. The poncho sweatshirt/drug rug/hippie blanket pullover looks amazing with tight fitting, dark wash jeans and a pair of southwestern booties. We have it in a million (not really, but many) different colors. I'm wearing one right now.





(P.s. 20twenty means no offence to the lovely
sage toting, incense burning, kombucha brewing Seattle types. And of course, all the awesome pothead cousins, and Rastafarian guitar teachers out there.)
