Pamela Love for J.Crew
Being the avid J.Crew shopper that I am, I was excited to receive this month’s J.Crew catalog-slash-magazine which featured a two-page spread on Pamela Love (one of my absolute favorite designers off the The Fashion Fund) and her capsule collection for J.Crew, which went on sale last Thursday (May 17th).
This collaboration is part of J.Crew’s partnership with the 2011 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Award recipients and it marks the jeweler’s first incursion into clothing design. The collaborations also include winner Joseph Altuzarra, which came out last month, and Pamela’s fellow runners-up, Creatures of the Wind’s Shane Gabier and Chris Peters, which comes out June 14.
According to Jenna Lyons, all three designers were limited to select materials for their capsule collections with denim evidently being one of their options.
The Collection
- Pamela Love for J.Crew Lorimer skinny jean ($295)
- Pamela Love for J.Crew Chevron belt ($135)
- Pamela Love for J.Crew Lorimer jean jacket ($295)
All items are for sale online and in select J.Crew stores.
In case you’ve been living under a rock and haven’t heard of these designers or the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Award, you can watch a 6-episode series of the awarding process, rightfully titled: The Fashion Fund, on Hulu. Click Here to watch.

The time when men only thought of clothing as a necessity is long gone. Wake up people, that’s so last century. We are in a new era where fashion doesn’t only relate to clothes or women for that matter. Today’s man cares about putting bread on the table just as much as he cares about how he looks when he walks out of the house. He likes to travel, surf, and even cares to give back to the planet. We owe many of these changes to male figures in the public eye that have made it okay for men to adopt this mindset and care about the luxuries of life. Relax ladies. You are still the number one priority in a man’s world.

The International Traveler
This worldly chap is interested in first- class sojourns to far-off exotic destinations and the latest in technology.
