2. See the results from one entry in the Doctrine Jeans DIY cut-off shorts event last week!
3. J Brand’s new nude leather pant is going to be a fall wardrobe staple for every woman post-summer. We called it.
4. Have you purchased anything from the internet’s first interactive, shop-able music video, c/o SSENSE? We like the concept, but the floating S logo kind of distracts from the video. We’d like to click on the clothes without having to hit the S target.

Blogs are great and all, but there is nothing like leafing through the pages of your favorite magazine, fresh off the press. From NYLON Japan to Dazed & Confused Korea, there’s a whole world of gorgeous editorial coverage going on that we aren’t served up on street side newsstands. We know we’re not alone when we over-spend on an international subscription or scoop up seasons worth of discounted mags from Around The World, and nothing tickles us pink blue like seeing denim on magazine covers. To drive the point home, we’ve rounded up some of our favorite denim-clad mags from East to West, North to South.
