Get The Look: Balmain

Not all of the outfits in The Yellow Button are made for bohemian rhapsodizing. This BB Dakota jacket, available on InStyle.com for 20% off, paired with skinny jeans from Blank or Free People and a slouchy, deep-V neck t-shirt make for a ready-to-wear homage to the Balmania that's sweeping the fashion scene. Tastemakers like Rihanna and Beyoncé love the brand's modern take on 80's acid wash and shoulder pads.

Obviously "acid wash" and "shoulder pads" bring back more bad memories than good for the average consumer, so we've taken into account wearability by pairing the Michael Jackson-influenced jacket with slim, edgy jeans that don't cost a fortune and loose-fitting tees any Brooklynite would go gaga over.

Stop by The Yellow Button today to see more looks from BB Dakota and your other favorite brands!

Jacket, BB Dakota $102
Blue jeans, Blank $70
Grey jeans, Free People $68
White T-shirt, Existential West
Purple T-shirt, Heavy Rotation $28

Hollywood It Girls Draw BLANK

Is it just us or do L.A.'s pretty young thing's have a soft spot for BLANK jeans? Ashlee Simpson and Victoria's Secret supermodel Alessandra Ambrosio were both spotted rocking the studded pocket style (Alessandra's were cut-offs, of course). Then we noticed that Elle covergirl-cum-red carpet showstopper Megan Fox wore a white pair (as seen on InStyle.com!) for her role in Transformers 2. Stop by The Yellow Button to pick up your pair today!

Let's Talk About Sax (Envirosax!)

Everyone knows it's terribly passé to tote around groceries in plastic bags. That's why you've got to get in store now to pick up your Envirosax. We've got nylon and linen versions (pictured), which retail for $10 and $27, respectively. Grab one in preppy kelly green polka dots or bohemian linen and avoid dirty stares from eco-friendly fashionstas!

Button Style At Bonnaroo

Style.com has posted their favorite street style pics from the Bonnaroo music festival and two of the festival goers are rocking Yellow Button brands! Ms. Bohemian Rhapsody on the left is kicking it in Frye boots (you can't see 'em, but Style.com captions don't lie) and the haute hippie to the right is well-heeled in Minnetonka moccasins (and a retro floral print that feels right on the money).

Now, we don't mean to suggest that shopping in our store will have you pallin' around MGMT concerts with Drew Barrymore, but it will give you the best possible wardrobe for that situation, should you ever find yourself in it!

Trendspotting: Bracelets


Bracelets are an on-trend summer accessory as June and July temperatures rocket into anti-cute-scarves territory. Go bright and funky stacking up exotic bangles or sticking to one or two of your favorites in bright hues (which you can find in store).

The Elle news blog is a fan of Phi's heavy metal cuffs and our Rebel bracelets are the perfect hybrid of hardware and chic wear for the cuff aficionado.

Bracelets by Rebel (shown); $65-$80
