Jonathan Adler for 7 For All Mankind

Last week Mr. Anti-Depressive Living himself, Jonathan Adler, revealed his capsule collection for denim powerhouse 7 For All Mankind. The collection has three themes- Deluxe, Rustic, and Pop- that are inspired by New York, Shelter Island, and Palm Beach, respectively. A few highlights, but check out the full collection here...

I really liked the bamboo cropped pant and yellow polo together, as shown here and in this month's House Beautiful. I'm not exactly sure where I'd wear this combo, but it's fun to look at.



These are the Pop Gummy Denim Cropped Guinevere in Bamboo Print. But gosh, what's up with those wedges? They sort of kill the look if you ask me...


An up-close look at the bamboo print. I have to admit a weakness for a good bamboo trellis motif. Or faux bamboo in general. I recently imposed a moratorium on faux bamboo in my house lest things start looking too matchy. But clothes, on the other hand, don't fall under the ban...


The Rustic Short Sleeve T-Shirt with Acapulco Scarf is fun. But $135. Um, couldn't you just buy a $30 J Crew white tee and then throw on your own scarf? Just sayin'...


I can see wearing the Deluxe Sleeveless Tunic in Keyhole Print in a lot of ways. I like it belted with jeans, or would be a nice casual dress for the beach.


The Pop short sleeve polo. I dunno, there are so many polos on the market already...what makes this one different? Other than the JA logo.


For the boys. Rustic western shirt in tangerine gingham. I do like how the western styling of an otherwise preppy shirt is a subtle departure from the norm. This might be my favorite item in the collection.


What do you think about the JA for 7 collection? Thrilled? Underwhelmed? Seen any of it in person?
