Once a year during the summer session before they recess for July 4th, all the members of the U.S. Senate participate in Seersucker Thursday, which happens to be today. If you aren’t familiar with the Southern summer fabric known as seersucker, there’s no time like the present to learn about it.

This is just such a happenin’ place that sometimes, we have to cram a bunch of stuff into one day to keep you Savvy! So here’s a roundup of what you need to know in the CoCo and the DeCo… including a summer fashion trend we’ll be skipping, thankyouverymuch, and which West Coast snack shack is hitting the Metroplex soon.

Bold eye-catching bracelets are the jewelry item you need right now. Stacks of bangles were the top accessory trend at the Oscars, in fact. Come inside where we tell you exactly how to wear the look…

Today we introduce a new category called “Guilty Pleasures”, in which we dish, devour, and clutch our pearls over all the delicious excess and drama that exists out there in the world.

I had a big Texas-y post all ready to go for the holiday but it turns out there is BREAKING FASHION NEWS: On Thursday, March 4, Neiman Marcus at the Shops at Willow Bend in Plano is hosting the “Fashion Rules!” party from 6pm – 9pm. This will be a night to celebrate fashion, filled with all sorts of divine entertainments.

Vogue features their take on the top six trends for spring. What really jumps out at us as this season’s one must-have piece is the military jacket, also called the flak jacket or utility jacket.

New restos, spring trend spotting, manly cupcakes, and vampire babies… all in today’s pile o’ fun!

Put This On is a gentlemen’s fashion blog about “dressing like a grownup.”

Whether your style is Uptown Luxe, Relaxed & Refined, Indie Chic, Pure Polish or one of the other cute categories, Style Radar at Neiman-Marcus updates weekly to help you stay apprised of what’s hot in your favorite looks.
