⎡ Fabrics : Heather ⎦
A year and a half ago, I would have laughed if you asked for my thoughts on heather…not the lady name, but the salt and pepper yarn that most of us associate to the sweaty, fat gym teacher in high school (with a whistle around his neck…important detail). Now, I’ve noticed that 95% of all the knits and layering pieces I’ve purchased in the passed year are in heather, all types of them, oatmeal heather, bark heather, cement heather…I can’t really put my hands on why this fascination has taken over my senses, but I can recall a specific season by Nom De Guerre, where they had 2 amazing pieces in heather: a high collar cardigan and a crewneck. I believe that was the turning point where I’ve forgotten about the vile gym teacher & strictly remember that NDG season as being one of their best.
ps: Lawrence. I’m still not sold on sweatpants, but I won’t cease to believe…

nice. i can relate. i believe that was f/w 08, and yes that was one of, if not, their best.
I’m not with the sweat thing either, especially the sweat + blazer business. As usual Vincent., great post and pics.
I love the contrast between the black and white on the knit in the second picture.
I’m sold on sweatpants, grey sweats, bengal striped oxford, EG blazer. looks money. its all in the shoes though, you wear weird ass shoes it looks lame.
that first picture is now my iphone wallpaper
