Heritage Brands: Pendleton

The interwebs are abuzz with news that Pendleton is introducing a new line for next fall with slimmer fits, and a more modern look, dubbed the 'Portland Collection'. I'm going back and forth on this one. The early 90's saw a lot of the horse blanket + silver work button look. I'm not sure I'm reay to go back-- what about you?
There is a lot of vintage Pendleton around these days-- some lovely finds (if the nouveau stuff isn't you're cuppa).

Designer to Know: Hucklebones

Hucklebones, UK. I know this is a kid's clothing line out of London, but sheesh - if they made these things in big people sizes, I'd wear every one of these outfits. The colors are perfect and the designs all vintage inspired without feeling overdone. That first white blouse is to die for...

Check out the full lookbook here.

Vintage Renewal - Car seats

I always like to see some creative reuse for everyday objects that would otherwise go to waste. These companies are putting good use to the interiors of cars that have seen their last U-turn:

Platinum Dirt makes leather jackets out of leather Cadillac seats. Each VIN Jacket is handmade and completely unique. The $1200 price point is a little steep ... but I guess it is cheaper than actually owning a Caddie. The ladies can always pick up an oddly shaped purse or clutch as well. I like that they keep the Cadillac insignia on the leather, and use the hood ornaments and other decals as zipper pulls:





Kim White uses the interiors of anything from a Mustang to a Volkswagon to create these surprisingly stylish clutches and handbags (some more subtle than others, right Camaro bag?):
