Austin Style

If your making a trip to Austin where will you find the wacky and wild? Yes, Austin has it's own style. If your reading a job description from here it might say "Austin Casual" which means jeans and a t-shirt.

I was looking through Rare Magazine and checking out all the off the norm boutiques. I give points to the dog grooming business called "Dirty Dog". Butt, the site that Wow'ed me is called Hem Jeans. Their web site is a marvel. Check it out.

How would I describe the Austin Style? Vintage, Retro, Recycled and Industrial. Now how does that work? Sounds a bit out there but the designers around Austin know how to make it all work.

Be safe...

Hello-I love reading your blog - it takes me back to my former home in Austin. You are right, the mix of industrial vintage, retro and recycled is the exact Austin look. I always think of it as a fifties vintage dress worn with $200 jeans, boots and a necklace made from rusty bottle caps and crystals, but maybe that's just my wardrobe!

I'm just messing around and wondering if this thing still works. It's been awhile since I've done this. Wish I had never stopped...
