Lyn Devon's understanding of cool, American sportswear has made her the recipient of a Ecco Domani Fashion Foundation award this year.. Devon, a 23 year old New York native, got her started working for Zac Posen and Ralph Lauren before launching her own label in 2005. Since then the designer has been quickly gaining momentum with positive reviews from WWD and Style.com in addition to countless magazines credits. Her Spring 2009 collection featured practical sportswear-inspired pieces that balanced masculine and feminine silhouettes beautifully. Devon often refers to her range as 'no-nonsense' and we find that sentiment to be well-timed indeed. Check out her Spring 2009 look book right here.

We're not sure if we're ready to make the plunge but we're always ready to window shop. Check out our favorites, above.

Ecco Domani announced their 2009 Fashion Foundation award winners today. The recipients are Lyn Devon, Matthew Ames, Cushnie et Ochs by Carly Cushnie and Michelle Ochs, and Ohne Titel by Alex Adams for womenswear, Corpus by Jerrod Cornish & Keith Richardson for menswear, and Monique Pean for jewelry, Eviana Hartman and Samantha Pleet for sustainable design. 

WWD talks with Jane Birkin about her cashmere pieces for Lutz & Patmos and her oldest pair of UGG boots. We never thought we'd say this but UGGs are getting a lot of good press these days.

 Billion Dollar Babes is jumping on the bandwagon and starting their own sample sale e-commerce site. 

It was recently announced that the magazine would go down to two issues per year and now there's a rumor that Men's Vogue will no longer be publishing magazines at all.

Talk about a DIY dream come true---these simple necklaces from the Spring 2009 shows are a great last-minute accessory for an outfit that just feels too plain. Reyes Spring 09 showed a Girl Scout-like look while Givenchy Spring 09 showed a more western-influenced style. Both are perfect in our eyes. Understated, tidy, affordable--these necklaces are a great way to show off Spring's elegant buttoned-up blouses.

Quote Of The Day: Cathy Horyn Takes On Wintour...Again

It’s embarrassing to see how Vogue deals with the recession--For the December issue, it sent a writer off to discover the “charms” of Wal-Mart and Target.
by coutorture It’s embarrassing to see how Vogue deals with the recession--For the December issue, it sent a writer off to discover the “charms” of Wal-Mart and Target. A similar obtuseness permeates a fashion spread in the January issue, where a model and a child are portrayed on a weekend outing with a Superman figure. Is a ’50s suburban frock emblematic of the mortgage meltdown?
