BRANDS WE LOVE: SOPHOMORE NYC
Sometimes, I need a break from the avant-garde. I mean, while I am an advocate for looking stylish at all times, I don't think that you need to be a fashion victim to do so. Because let's face it, we all have those days when we just want to throw on a pair of skinnies and a tee, but should we have to look terrible because its an "off day"? I think not.
And apparently, neither does Chrissie Miller of Sophomore. With comfy basics in breathable fabrics, the line imbues the laid back vibe of LES with items that are so simple, they are timeless. Teaming up with Madeleine von Froomer (whose last stint was at Proenza Schouler) the collective churns out effortlessly cool items with a 70s flare. And with a look book featuring everyone's favorite underage scene girl, Cory Kennedy (oh, and Bijou Phillips,) they've definitely got their target market all figured out. Look out C&C, there's a new sheriff in town!
