“Juxtaposition” was my favorite word in college. It pretty much summed up my approach to everything. Putting things that don’t normally go together and snuggle them up.

Au Jour Le Jour did something different by taking the 1960’s psychedelia and J-Crew bedazzled their denim (you know what I’m talking about, jeweled sweatshirts!)
