Worn Out: Xaivia in Adams Morgan

Sunday was a beautiful 75 degree day, so naturally we were out strolling our neighborhood of Adams Morgan when something shiny caught our eye. It was Xaivia’s shoes hiding under the table of a sidewalk cafe. One fist bump later he was posing for our camera and we realized that the thing that makes those shoes match his outfit is: attitude. Xaivia is a talented photographer and videographer who’s work you can see here. Photography by Nicole Aguirre.

Worn Out: Parisian Chic

Meet Jamie Hurst. We ran into the style blogger for High-Heeled Traveler at DC Meet Market this weekend on 15th & P St. and totally fell for her Madewell-meets-Parisian chic look. There’s something about the cat eye sunglasses plus patterned turban that make us want to sip a milkshake at a drive-in movie out of a convertible, in Paris. Check out Jamie’s recently release High-Heeled Traveler: The Magazine. Photography by Nicole Aguirre.

Meet Us at Meet Market

Last Saturday we were invited by Virginia Arrisueno and Kelly Towles to be a part of the new DC Meet Market. The outdoor market happens the first Saturday of every month on the corner of 15th & P Street NW and is filled with delicious food vendors, local clothing and accessories, and gifts. Saturday’s weather was perfect and we spent the day basking in the sunshine, meeting new people and new furry friends (Laika the puppy!) and taste-testing vegetarian curry from the Fojol Bros. food truck. Set-up and take-down were also super easy for us as the Worn Magazine team has devised an ingenious way to get our curated collection of clothing to and from our showroom in Adams Morgan… why pack everything when you can just push it down the bike lane?! Scroll down to see our pop-up team, Che, Caleb, and Anastasia touring our racks, Beatles-style, up 15th Street. Come visit us at the next Meet Market on Saturday, May 4th.

Send Us Your Rejection Letters

“Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.” ― Winston Churchill

Dear Readers,

I’m excited to announce that the Spring/Summer issue of Worn Magazine is well under way and will be released at the end of April. The theme of this upcoming issue is “Dreams.” One way to interpret this theme is to consider the personal journey we’re all on to accomplish our dreams. One important part of this journey is enduring rejection and then going on to kick butt anyway. Because I want all aspects of dreaming to be represented in this issue (not just the typical ones) I’d like you brave souls to send us your rejection letters so that we can print them in the upcoming issue or on our website. In addition to your letter, please include a short paragraph that explains how you’ve gone on to kick butt since that once unfortunate correspondence. This is your opportunity to stick it to the man!

Behind the Scenes: The Making of Issue 5

Cameron Archer for Worn Magazine Issue 5.

Last week kicked off the official start to the making of Issue 5, the “Dreams Issue” with our first official photo shoot. Joshua Yospyn photographed jewelry designer Cameron Archer in the Worn Magazine studio. We saw Archer’s St. Clair Jewelry line in person at the Ulysses Room Night Market in December and were instantly inspired by the magic in each handmade piece. A DC-native, Cameron uses crystals, precious stones, and gold chain woven together in designs that are inspired by nature.
