Photo of the Day- The Domestics Get Fancy!



The Sweetest thing: Sandy and Ian of "The Domestics" are modelling some of the sweetest gear Model Citizens has to offer! Sandy is in a vintage 50's polkadot dress and a white Coach jacket and Ferregamo flats and is Ian is sporting a vintage denim shirt with Nudie jeans.

Check out details of the Domestics and their latest album, State and Arrow below!



Sandy May and Ian Cornelissen are, domestically speaking, The Domestics. Their musical collaboration began in the winter of 2008 and has produced a sound and style described as “saltwater country meets Bonnie and Clyde”. Their songs have a classic quality delivered in modern fashion, blending country twang with 1960’s rock ‘n roll rhythms, melodic pop sensibilities, and clever, introspective lyrics. Although they are “married…with a band”, Sandy and Ian have also been known to take their intimate, living room style performances on the town as a duo. The Domestics have shared stages throughout Atlantic Canada with such artists as NQ Arbuckle, Dan Mangan, The Skydiggers, Rah-Rah, Kite Hill, The Burning Hell, B.A. Johnson, Al Tuck, Rose Cousins, and Mark Bragg. The Domestics were most recently awarded, FACTOR and MUSICNL New Talent Grants in support of their forthcoming release State & Arrow.

Clare Rocks. Sequins, Lace and Cargo, Oh My!


This outfit totally rocks.
A.P.C cropped cargo pants, vintage sequinned tank and vintage 70's lace coat. This outfit plays with so many things happening in fashion right now- from the embrace of cropped tops to the 1970's sophisticate  of the ace coat, this look has such life in it. Sequinned top is the only thing remaining at MC, but it is on the floor today. If you want to rock the look and are terrified of the bare midriff, start off with high waisted bottoms (skirt or trousers) to really get a contemporary look with a vintage piece.
