A Pre-Fall Preview: Part V
As long as the Pre-Fall goodies keep coming, we're going to keep sharing. This time, we have collections from Gucci, Prada, and Miu Miu. I like how Miuccia Prada experimented with texture in both of her collections.
Etsy Find: Argyle Midcentury Shelving Unit
I'm not much of a prepster, but I've always appreciated the graphic goodness of argyle. The diamond checkerboard pattern has a unique three-dimensional quality that's simply eye-catching. But, don't get any ideas: I won't be sporting an argyle sweater vest any time soon.

Argyle
Diamond shapes in colorful patterns on a solid background. Primarily used in sweaters and socks. Original pattern of the Clan Campbell, of Argyll in western Scotland.
Argyle Makes a Comeback
Argyle isn't just for socks anymore. Lately, this classic, preppy diamond pattern has been showing up in the most unexpected places, from shoes to arm warmers and even a tube top. Something about taking argyle out of the sock and sweater-vest context suddenly makes this potentially stodgy fabric look very funky and fun.

Steve Carell Teeing Up For the Missing Links
So I may not play golf, but that doesn't mean I can't appreciate a good comedy based on the game. (Remember that scene in Happy Gilmore when Adam Sandler squares off with Bob Barker? Classic.) Now Steve Carell may be joining the ranks of Sandler and Chevy Chase (Caddyshack!) with a golf movie of his very own.
Tabitha Argyle Sweater Wrap: Love It or Hate It?
I'm not so much a preppy gal. While I do have a lot of favorite looks, prepster is just not one of them. This Tabitha Argyle Sweater Wrap, $128, definitely falls into the prep school category.
SYTYCD: Which Dancers Do You Like So Far?
It's Vegas week on So You Think You Can Dance, which means that the contestants who've gotten a ticket to Nevada get evaluated again before they get to go to LA.
All of the judges are on hand to watch the dancers try out different dance styles out of their comfort zones to see if they can be put through in the competition, and the high stakes mean the dancing is rigorous. It's stressful just watching talented people struggle with different dance genres, and many don't make it.
