When I think of the brand Pendleton I think of warm blankets and wooly home accessories, and occasionally the name brings to mind conservative woolen outfits and prim and proper clothing. ย This is what I see:
So imagine my surprise when I stumbled across this AWESOME dress from Pendleton for Opening Ceremony.
According to the Shopbop.com ย web site …”Fashion rebels at Opening Ceremony, known for their avant-garde boutiques in New York, Los Angeles, and Tokyo, discovered a partner in heritage textiler Pendleton when they visited century-old woolen mills in Oregon in 2009. The result of their collaboration is Pendelton Meets Opening Ceremony, a collection of artfully constructed pieces in timeless plaids, intricate patterns, and brilliant hues. Inspired by American legends and world travelers, this line brings out the stylish free spirit in all.”
I love these jackets and the messenger bag! ย The mini skirt is fantastic. ย The vibrant colors are great for the dreary winter months, and bold prints can work for daytime casual as well as downtown funk. ย Definitely not your mother’s Pendleton! ย You can find most of these pieces, along with many other vibrant selections atย Openingceremony.us/.
