Michael’s Fashion Influence
July 16, 2009 | Category: Uncategorized | Leave a Comment
We just received a red windbreaker from Volcom (the Gone With the Windbreaker in True Red). Immediately it made me think of Michael Jackson and his red leather jackets. Michael’s influence on fashion is so colossal; it’s amazing to see how many facets of fashion it’s infiltrated.

The sleeves zip off for that extra 80's flair!

Roxy Tanks
June 18, 2009 | Category: Uncategorized | Leave a Comment
As my years at the shop have gone by I feel like I’ve slowly grown out of some of our brands that are geared toward the “junior” demographic. Roxy is a great example of this. However, they always seem to put out a few great pieces each season at great prices that work with every wardrobe no matter how young or old you might be. We just received our first fall shipment from Roxy and I love all of it. Here are a couple of pictures of one of the tanks! Come by to check out the rest!
Roxy Bonkers Top in Pearl $29.50
Faux Layering & a Faux Crooked Placket... it's Fuax Real!
Also, as a side note, I recently saw Roxy’s Holiday 2009 line and it is RAD! I would’ve never guessed it was Roxy. Lot’s of great plaids, flannels and crewneck fleece. And a ton of sweet, super affordable denim (all $45-$55)! It starts shipping 8/25 so I’ll post pics when it arrives!

Vans!
June 17, 2009 | Category: Uncategorized | Leave a Comment
Recently I had the great opportunity to travel down to the Vans headquarters in Long Beach, California to attend their book release party and view their Spring 2010 women’s line. It was a whirlwind adventure… we landed at the LBC airport at 2:00 pm on a Thursday and flew out at 6:30 pm the very next day. It was a blast, though! We even had a few hours to spare Friday afternoon which we spent on Seal Beach getting burnt.

Vans has been focusing more on their women’s apparel line over the last couple of years and it really shows. The current spring line that we have in the shop looks great! We’ve sold out of a few styles already. Their clothing paired with their sweet shoes makes for a well-rounded women’s brand. It’s refreshing to see a brand pay attention to their women’s division and put effort in to bringing us some original gear that isn’t too trendy or bland.
Check out some of the current spring line… and come by the South Lake Union store to see the rest!

Yellow!!
June 3, 2009 | Category: Uncategorized | Leave a Comment
Yellow seems to be everywhere in fashion this spring… and won’t be going away anytime soon! Pantone (”the world-renowned authority on color”) selected the color of the year for 2009, and the winner was Mimosa! Pantone feels that “Mimosa embodies hopefulness and reassurance in a climate of change”.
That’s all happy and nice, but living up here in the northwest leaves the majority of us pale, thus unable to wear yellow. SnoCon is here to help you stay hip with the yellow trend without looking washed out. The secret?! SHOES & ACCESSORIES! Here are just a few of the yellow items we currently have in the shop! Come by and check them out!

SnoCon and Matix are working together to bring one lucky shopper a free Matix outfit of their choice. Everyone who spends $100 on Matix women’s gear gets entered into a drawing. On May 26th we will draw a name and that person gets to pick out a free Matix outfit of their choice. We currently have a huge selection of spring Matix gear! Here are some of my personal favorites!!
Cooper Sweater in Papaya $52
Matix is known for their great selection of sweaters season after season. This one doesn’t disappoint! It’s a cotton rayon blend making it just the right weight for spring and summer nights.

Sabrina Tank in Citrus $50
This tank is a blend of cotton and silk. The fabric drapes nicely, which makes it flattering for a range of body types.

5 Pocket Bermudas in Classic Blue $46
These shorts have a 6″ inseam, which is the perfect length! It sits right between the usual 9″ long bermudas and the shorty short 2″ ones! The contrasting white thread adds a bit o’ pop, as well!
