Why do I love the cinch jacket? Not only does it keep you warm on brisk fall days but it also keeps you looking stylish. It comes in black and eggplant and either are great staple colors to have in your closet for Fall 2010. When you’re on the go, the cino cinch jacket is the perfect thing to make anything you’re wearing look put together and trendy. The fleece material makes it one of the most comfortable things to wear and you’ll most likely never want to take it off. The drawstring cinch makes this jacket unique and sets it apart from all of the other fleece jackets out there.

I have this jacket in eggplant and it easily became one of my new favorite pieces that I own. I basically live in sweaters and cardigans and this is definitely going to be competition for my other jackets in my closet. The plush fleece makes it comfortable and warm but it doesn’t feel like it’s weighing me down when I wear it. The eggplant color makes it really easy to wear with blacks or browns or any other color you choose to pair it with. I wore it with a pair of jeans, a simple white tank and a pair of brown leather boots. I personally love purples and browns together, and I loved this combination of the eggplant color with my brown boots. The black is also extremely versatile. I mean honestly, who doesn’t wear black? It’s a great jacket in a great color and the black is guaranteed to go with anything you wear it with. You could go with an all black outfit as seen in the picture above, spiced up with some cool accessories, which I love. Or it can easily be worn with bright pops of color underneath. Either way, this jacket is definitely a smart and stylish buy.

So when I first started working with cino I didn’t know I was going to be a model. I just thought I was going to be helping out with all the behind the scene stuff, which I am, but Cinthia and Henry put me in front of the camera instead. I was pretty nervous and had no idea what I was doing, but when the music went on and they told me just to be myself I started to have a lot of fun. I forgot about the camera and just danced the whole time. I think a big part of my being so comfortable with the modeling is because I felt comfortable in the clothes. The cino cross tee is a perfect example, as you can see,  not only is it sexy and youthful its comfortable and easy to move in.  Clothes should make you feel good and in this picture I’m definitely feeling good. The cino cross tee is an awesome staple for your closet because of its versatility. This is just one way to wear it  but I guarantee that there are many other ways to wear it. I know Christine has the black one and she wears hers under cardigans, jackets and even with a pair of sweats to just hang out in. So if you’re looking for a perfect shirt to layer or wear on it’s own to give a fun twist to your wardrobe this is definitely one to seriously consider.

Christa

Hello everyone! My name’s Christine and this summer I got the amazing opportunity to intern with cino apparel. I’m 19 years old and I’m going to sophomore at Johnson & Wales University in the fall. My major there is Fashion Merchandising & Retail Marketing, and this internship without a doubt broadens my learning experience in that field. I love fashion, I always have and I’m excited to finally be working in the industry hands on. When I’m not working I love to do arts & crafts, which sounds totally lame, but helps me get my creativity out. Even working at cino I get to express my creativity through fashion and encouraged to share any ideas I have. This has been a great summer so far and I’m sure there’s plenty more to come. BUT, without further ado, here’s my partner in crime intern……

My name is Christa and  I’m 21 yrs old. I’m currently going to school at Ramapo College of New Jersey and hopefully will graduate in the next year but I don’t really know because I’m a transfer. I am a theater major concentrating in costume design. I really never thought I would be working in the fashion industry because I’m such a theater nerd but things kind of just ended up that way. I have always been interested in fashion and now  after spending my whole summer with cino I have a  new understanding and appreciation for the industry. I have learned so much in the past two months because of all the amazing and talented people around me. I  love working with cino because it is the perfect blend of professionalism and fun. I am encouraged to express my ideas and when I do I become very excited especially when henry brings me caramel frappacinos. The part I love the most about the internship is being able to work with Cinthia hands on and watch her do her thing. I am extremely grateful for being part of cino because it has given me the opportunity to show my imagination and personality. I love cino:)
