Joe Fresh has changed.  When it first launched, it was full of basics – very “normcore” as one might call it in 2014 and very suburban family.  It was “Minivan Life.”  Of course, what would one expect from a line of clothing that could be purchased from a grocery chain?  Fast forward to 2014 and […]

Day Two:   Menswear line Klaxon Howl’s collection definitely had a bit of a wild west vibe, especially with their women’s capsule collection (the guys’ pieces leaned more towards the signature blue collar look).  True to the brand’s philosophy, the women’s line also carries a rugged vibe.  While this was an okay attempt at women’s […]
