Designer Spotlight: Lanston Has All Your Basic Necessities
Intricate, elaborate clothing has its place, but sometimes all you need are the bare bones. For those pared-down times, look to Lanston. Prices aren't ridiculous and styles are anything but boring. Take for example the shadow stripe pieces (far left and right) — they're made of rayon, so they're comfy, but the sheer fabric lends a hint of sporty sexy. Because let's face it, even when we crave basic, we still want to retain good taste. Get active with Lanston's stylish racerback tanks, dolman-sleeve tops, loose-fitting tees, and flowy vests.
