This weekend on a dreary Sunday morning. My super stylish friends and I participated in the SSF Sustainable Running Tour of Downtown Seattle. When I say “running”, I use the word lightly. We jogged…at a slow pace. I wore my drop crotch Y3 Sweatpants and, my gal pals look stylish in their hip sunglasses, despite the clouds, and running gear. But, that wasn’t the important part. The key to the event was the education we all had as we went from point to point and learned about what was sustainable about it. As co-founder of SSF, I am still learning and had loads of fun sharing what I learned about some of these spots. I am going to be posting blogs all week on the SSF site, sustainablestyle.org, that will highlight each of the stops. Please go there and check them out. RL

It’s on. It started with Mexico vs South Africa this morning. The World Cup has begun. Boys, what are you going to wear?

Are you going to wear the colors of your team? Soccer jersey? Here are my picks for your looks as you watch the world play football.

You already have your jersey? Pair it with killer fitting jeans, The Varvatos Bowery Jean is a perfect Jean. It works with most everything.

The Diesel Viker jeans are a must have for summer World Cup viewing.

Oh… and Kill City’s Mod Fit (available now at Alter in NY) have an amazing fit.

Cool kicks? Yes, a must. Varvatos Leather Converse (Barney’s NY, Varvatos) or any cool sneaker will work. It’s good to wear leather in case the beer sloshes…an it will.

An easy way to wear team colors if you don’t have a jersey is to pick up a hoody or two in the colors you want from American Apparel…an easy fix.

For those of you sitting outdoors, and you want to be prepared for a summer shower, try the Varvatos Light Parka has an amazing cut and its easy to pack. Or pull over a Nom de Guerre. That is never wrong.

To sport a euro look that will get the attention of that certain gal, try a pair of these tie at the bottoms….I recently saw this look in a coffee shop in PDX paired with a simple tee, stripe socks that didn’t match, and killer boots…hot. With this look, you can just add a team scarf.

Haven’t gotten your favorite country’s jersey yet, try these sites. http://www.worldcupjerseys.co.uk/

Okay girls, I know you are thinking…it’s fun to watch the World Cup games because, well, the guys are hot. Okay, fair enough. I refer you to the “Lo-Fi & Loose” post. Chic, Simple and super sexy is how you should roll for the matches. RL
