Like any good Maine girl, LL Bean is a staple part of my wardrobe. Especially some excellent finds from the factory store, like my red slip on canvas shoes and my navy chamois shirt that’s approaching some sort of light blue/gray after several summers cooking on schooners. But LLBean’s never been exactly high fashion. I like to think of it as lumberjack chic. It sometimes tries to be fashionable (Freeport Studio anyone?) and it looks like they’re trying again.
LL Bean Signature has a distinctly “I summer in Kennebunkport” look to it, but in a good way.
I like it. Nice work, Beans. What do you think?
In the mean time, graduation is right around the corner, I’m seeing a weekend full of friends, family, puppies, and lobster in my future. No complaints here.





Hmmm. Ok, Beans. Some of these styles might work. In moderation.
But check this out: print mixology! Much more fun.
