The only thing that would make this better is if they were all in Limi.
Real
Just had a customer come in and hang out for literally an hour. No talk about clothes, but plenty of talk about boys, girls, being terrible at planning, working on our flaws, moving, South Africa, recording studios, income, Prince, Michael Jackson, dancing to Prince and Michael Jackson, settling down, settling, what makes good company, families making us who we are, getting old, not knowing what a “career” is anymore.
Come in to my store. I bet you and I will have a good time.
Marcus practically went completely bananas when he saw this on his own blog feed and demanded it be reposted to the store’s blog. We kind of needed a little more reason than the fact that he worshipped this show because, you know, we’re picky like that.
“Duh,” he said. “The UNIF Cutout Button-up? Instant 90’s cred.”
Touché, Marcus. Touché.
You guys. You guys. My work is super serious.

These are excellent people and I’m sure it’s going to be an excellent sale. If I were there, I’d be all over that Sacai.

I need to go out and just buy a shit load of rocks. Uses for them will have to come at a later date.
Dear “Nina Simone” Pandora Station,
Thank you for being so awesome.
Obligingly yours forever,
Marcus
Breaking news. I actually like some Alexander Wang mainline things.
I think most of it is the compelling styling and deathly Asian ladiez, though.

Baby Got Back
Hey, why don’t you read some stuff about stuff I want you to buy?
Maybe it’s just because we’re Romantics at heart, but we think one of the best parts of any look is when you walk away. The figure you cut, the impression you leave, the fact that if you catch someone’s eye, they have to run after you…it makes everything feel a little more dramatic, a little more cinematic, a little more bad-ass. In that vein, we think there are a few pieces that you guys might have neglected because you didn’t take a chance to check out what’s going on in the back.
Bright blue color and incredibly light silk would have been enough to make this tank a must-have for summer, but the dramatic draped back will have everybody making a double-take when you walk past them in Dolores Park. The bottom of the tank actually “tunnels” through a slit in the top, creating a beautiful drape as well as leaving two artfully placed cut-outs on each side.
C.P. Company Heritage Cotton Jacket
Sure, you can admire the texture and great hand finishing on this waxed jacket from the front, but the large back panel lets you see just how unique the coating is without any pockets or zippers or buttons to distract you. And if you look closely, you can also make out the stitching that connects the inner back carry strap—all because you took the time to turn this jacket around!
Kai-aakmann Fringe Back Blouson
From the front, this lightweight jacket looks like a pretty straightforward piece, but when you noticed the Western-style welted pockets, you know that Soonjin Park has loaded up her design with a little something extra. Turn it around and—voilà! A sassy and incredibly fun fringe along the back and arms adds a little extra. Western influences, 20’s influences, and military influences all collide in a jacket you’ll want to wear all summer long.
These definitely aren’t your dads old corduroys. We think the safety orange coloring might have tipped you off. But what we really love are the signature P.A.M. pockets. Long-time fans will recognize these immediately as a classic detail that echoes to sagged jeans on skaters, but reconfigured to be a totally cool, totally unique design. For the more timid amongst you, don’t forget that these guys are also available in a classic tan, too.
So the next time you stop by Acrimony or ACRE/SF, please, please, please we beg you to take an extra second and peek at the back. We think you’ll be pleasantly surprised!
Celebrating Mod Mamas
Mother’s Day is approaching, so it’s time to truly honor all the wonderful mothers out there. And from what we hear, being a mom isn’t always easy—there’s little to no time for getting dressed or putting on make-up, researching the latest trends, or engaging in retail therapy. However, there are plenty of moms who look seriously stylish, despite having slept 3 hours, endured an entire morning with a fussy baby, and spent 10 minutes getting ready. How do they do it? In need of some answers, we decided to interview a couple of our favorite customers demanding they divulge their secrets to being so chic.
