BC's Sure Thing.

BC's newest wedge, SURE THING is just as it's name says. It's comfy, can be worn from day to evening, rocked with tights and has a bit of a retro edge. We dig it!

What do you think? Besides boots, what's your go to shoe for Winter?

Holiday Choices.

Thanksgiving is a day away and many, (present company included) have still not decided what to sport for turkey day. In the spirit of giving, we decided to take some of our best selling styles and build outfit choices to offer a little guidance. 

The best part? They are all pretty much interchangeable, so mix and match it up and let us know what you come up with~

Music Monday - Milo Greene

(courtesy of Last.Fm)

 
We ventured into the city this weekend and were lucky enough to catch the band Milo Greene opening up for The Civil Wars. They were (simply put), super dope and a great new music find to carry us through the Winter months.

Their best asset is their on stage energy and the vocals led by the only girl member of the group, Marlana Sheetz. She could sing anything and people would line up and drop some change to be transported by her haunting and perfect voice.

Point of this story: We're so glad we went early. Get to know them yourself~

Go Bold With it.

Happy Socks is a funky sock and hosiery company based out of Sweden. As it usually works, they tell their story the best.

"It all started under the cloud-ridden April sky of yet another belayed Swedish spring in 2008. A vision to spread happiness by turning an everyday essential into a colourful design piece. A rigid standard of ultimate quality, craftsmanship, and creativity. A philosophy brought to perfection by the Happy Socks collective of creators, most recently spotted in a 400-year-old shrieking red cottage among the cherry trees and berry bushes in a park located in the midst of Stockholm"

Sounds pretty rad to us. It's a staple we all need and own. Why not follow their philosophy and go bold with it.

Boot vs. Boot.

In the battle of boot to boot, which one would you choose to help you navigate through the Winter? We think it's a tough call.

Color Theory.

Everyone can use a little color in their lives.We decided to celebrate that by posting some  pictures from Pinterest that completely agree with our theory. 

How rad are these?

Would you rock this?

Our awesome POM POM heels round out this day to evening outfit and make it a great option for colder weather. We love navy, (obvi) and think the combo of navy with nude mesh together in the best way. 

What do you think? Would you rock this?

A Designer's Atlas.

We stumbled upon this amazing collection of graphic representations of each state's motto appropriately called 50 and 50. Who better to describe the project than the curator themselves, so in their own words...

"50 and 50 is a curated project which attempts to construct a handsome new way of looking at our country. Fifty designers, one per state, have illustrated their state motto, creating something steeped in history but completely modern and unique: a kind of designer's atlas."

Music Mondays with M83

We're a day late on our Music Monday post, but we promise this one is worth the wait. This week we're celebrating the long awaited new album by Anthony Gonzales of M83. The band has garnered a cult following and the new album, Hurry Up, We're Dreaming, is the most epic collection of songs they've put out yet. They're playing a sold out show at the Music Box in Hollywood tomorrow night, and we're amping ourselves up by watching the video for the powerful synth-metal single "Midnight City" on repeat. Check it out.

Get Your Craft On

Last night a few of the BC Girls headed over to the Craft and Folk Art Museum in Los Angeles for a night of holiday ornament making with design guru Mark Montano, sponsored by Etsy. Armed with pinecones, felt, construction paper and a glue gun, we transformed these humble materials into extraordinary holiday decorations. Check out what we made! And if you want to get in on the craft action yourself you should pick up a copy of Mark's new book, The Big-Ass Book of Crafts 2.

All I Need...

We can totally relate to this mural from Steve Powers and his "Love Letter to Brooklyn" series

Bundle Up

Our new patent accented FOIL booties are dope in true navy. So much so, we styled a layered Winter look around them.
