Promoting the wares of others might have helped Arielle Charnas of Something Navy become one of the most sought-after bloggers in the space but now she’s ready to unveil apparel and accessories of her own.
Well, not totally on her own. She had assistance from Nordstrom, which enabled Charnas to parlay her social media influence into a capsule collection with the retailer’s private-label brand, Treasure & Bond. The launch is an ambitious one: The Something Navy X Treasure & Bond line will roll out to 52 Nordstrom doors across the U.S. and Canada, as well as Nordstrom.com on Sept. 25. Comprising 30 ready-to-wear styles, including shoes and accessories codesigned by Charnas, prices start at $49 for a T-shirt and go up to $169 for slouchy, knee-high boots and $199 for a faux shearling jacket.
A landing page teasing the partnership went live today on nordstrom.com, and the 30-year-old influencer, who has hinted at a design collaboration for months without disclosing the retailer she was teaming with, will officially unveil the partnership to her one million Instagram followers.

LOS ANGELES — A month into his stint as a Chargers quarterback, Cardale Jones remains a work in progress.

“When he’s hot, it’s a beautiful thing,” head coach Anthony Lynn said two weeks ago. “When he’s cold, he’s off a little bit. But he’s still learning the system.”

With just one preseason game left, that assessment still rings true. Acquired by trade just before the start of training camp, Jones saw his most extensive action yet during Saturday’s 21-19 win over the Rams, playing 31 snaps, and throwing for 74 yards and one interception. It was the first time this month that he connected on more than half his pass attempts (9 of 13).

Not coincidentally, it was the first time Jones got a chance to play behind the first-string offensive line, something that gave Lynn a better chance to properly evaluate the former fourth-round pick. Incumbent backup Kellen Clemens watched from the sideline at the Coliseum, and could do so again this Thursday against the 49ers.

“I’m just trying to get Cardale caught up,” Lynn said. “Just so that he can have a fair chance.”

Lynn didn’t think Jones got enough help in a preseason loss to the Saints a week earlier. The 6-foot-5 quarterback led the Chargers into the red zone that day, but the drive ended abruptly on a receiver’s fumble. Blame could also be shared on some of miscues this past Saturday. Jones’ interception, for example, was thrown a bit inside of receiver Travis Benjamin — but Benjamin did little keep Rams defensive back Dominique Hatfield from ripping the ball away.

Putting Jones behind starting linemen like Russell Okung and Matt Slauson on Saturday gave him more time to throw. But extra post-practice reps have helped have also helped him absorb the playbook. Traded by the Bills last month for a conditional seventh-round pick, Jones arrived in Southern California in catch-up mode: Philip Rivers and Clemens have both been in the league for over a decade, while undrafted quarterback Mike Bercovici is in his second offseason with the Chargers.

“Naturally, you’re going to feel behind,” Jones said. “Naturally, you’re going to feel like they’ve got to kind of spoon-feed you in the beginning.”

He credited Clemens and quarterback coach Shane Steichen for fostering his growth, but perhaps no one has been as instrumental as Rivers. Shortly after joining the Chargers, Jones admitted that he felt “starstruck” the first time he met the six-time Pro Bowler.

“He knows so much,” Jones said Saturday. “He’s been in this league forever. Any insight that he has — sometimes he gives me answers that are above my knowledge at points.”

It seems unlikely that Jones will leapfrog Clemens for the No. 2 job by the start of the season. A 34-year-old career backup, the latter offers stability and consistency, traits that are valuable in the quarterback room even if he never plays a snap. But Lynn also coached Jones in Buffalo, and clearly sees potential in the former Ohio State star.

Even if he isn’t ready for regular-season snaps, Jones could convince Chargers to keep a third quarterback on their roster — which must by trimmed down to 53 by 1 p.m. this Saturday. He’s doing his best to make that an easier choice.

“It helps that the head guy believes in you and wants you here,” Jones said, “but it’s all about putting in the time.”

BREA   A man was killed Sunday, Aug. 27 when two vehicles collided head-on at the intersection of Tonner Canyon and Brea Canyon Road, California Highway Patrol authorities said.

According to witness reports, a Toyota pickup truck veered onto the wrong side of the road and struck a Jeep Cherokee driving south at around 10:11 a.m., the CHP said.

Paramedics from the Orange County Fire Authority worked to extricate a man from the Toyota Tacoma, who was later pronounced deceased on scene,

Two women in their 20s were transported to UCI Medical Center.

The identity of the man who died was not immediately available.

Looking over the crowd at “It’s Not Dead 2” at Glen Helen Amphitheater in Devore Saturday, Aug. 26, there was a mixed sea of ages, ethnicities and fashions. It seemed as if more people had turned out because of the popularity of festivals than of punk.

The stage names were probably lost on the bulk of the audience, too, as the smaller stages referenced now-defunct iconic Southern California punk venues — Cuckoo’s Nest (Costa Mesa), Fenders (Ballroom, in Long Beach) and Olympic (as in Auditorium, Los Angeles). The main stage honored Gary Tovar, who founded Goldenvoice to promote punk shows long before it was a national festival juggernaut, and the late Mike “Gabby” Gaborno, the lead singer of the Cadillac Tramps and Manic Hispanic who died in January.

However, both punk bands and festivals are noted for putting out compilation discs, here are our picks of who and what we would put on our “It’s Not Dead 2” record.

Channel 3: Their most outstanding number was “Manzanar,” a tune about the Japanese-American internment camp during World War II. “They didn’t exactly teach you that in school,” Channel 3 lead singer/guitarist Mike Magrann said of the song backstage after their performance.

Reagan Youth: This band got together not simply to make music, but because they had something to say. And for a great example of early ‘80s political punk, “Reagan Youth,” with it’s chaotic, changeable beat makes the cut.

The Interrupters: “It’s Not Dead 2” promoter Kevin Lyman touted this ska/punk group as “the future of punk.” As they dove into their tune, “This is the New Sound,” one young fan said she had seen The Interrupters four times and adores them because they are “upbeat and you can dance to them.” The large audience certainly had a hard time keeping still during this song.

GBH: “Knife Edge” is the hands-down winner here. Dust was rising from the mosh pit and suddenly a man in a wheelchair appeared surfing the crowd, chair and all. Now that’s punk.

Unit F: The Cuckoo’s Nest consisted of a trailer stage away from everything else and was a bit hard find, but Unit F’s fans turned out and grew during their show. The best treat was “Decay” off the new album, “Ecocide: Songs of Dysfunction,” about how we are ruining the environment and ourselves. It’s a wake-you-up tune and that was met with the crowd’s approval.

Buzzcocks: Long before Green Day brought pop into punk, there was the Buzzcocks. Their pop-punk grooves were at their height in “What Do I Get?,” a tune about longing for a lover and only losing sleep. They also got a big applause.

The Adicts: It’s hard to pick one song with the theatrical and exciting show this group put on, but what was most impressive was the ability of lead vocalist Keith Warren’s ability to go for a laugh and pull it off with finesse. He already awed the crowd with his sparkly silver slacks and towards the end of the set donned a Chinese takeout box costume for “Chinese Takeaway.” Adding to the fun, he opened a normal sized takeout box and used chopsticks to pull streamers from it and tossed them into the pleased crowd.

Dropkick Murphys: There was an audible “Oh!” from the audience when they announced they were going to perform “Rose Tattoo.” For this soulful song, they invited record producer Ted Hutt to join them onstage with an acoustic guitar and had the bulk of the crowd singing along, too.

Rancid: Although at this point in the show there were several small groups of people glued to their cell phones watching the Mayweather/McGregor fight, everyone paid attention when the group dedicated “It’s Quite Alright” to Mike Gaborno. It was the most moving moment of the festival.

Encore: Dropkick Murphys and Rancid combined forces to end the evening with a short set of cover tunes. Johnny Cash’s classic “Folsom Prison Blues” was an unexpected number that showed the true talent of the two bands and how many musical genres can shine through in punk.

There’s often been an old-fashioned glamour in the music and performances of Bryan Ferry, as a solo artist and as front man of Roxy Music, so it’s fitting that after nearly five decades in the spotlight the English singer finally made his Hollywood Bowl debut on Saturday with a terrific show that captured much of the elegance and style of the iconic performer and this historical stage.

Debonair jacket, shirt casually unbuttoned at the throat, perfectly tousled hair? You don’t even need to ask. Video screens set to black and white? The singer as a film noir star.

And, in addition to Ferry’s regular rock ensemble, backing by the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra on all but a handful of the 19 songs in the 80-minute set? Now you’ve got a seriously cinematic and timeless night of music in which to luxuriate.

Ferry’s night at the Bowl opened with “The Main Thing,” one of three songs from Roxy Music’s “Avalon,” which marked its 35th anniversary earlier this year. His band is much the same as it has been for a few years, with saxophonist Jorja Chalmers and guitarist Jacob Quistgaard often stepping forward for solo turns.

But as the show built through songs such as Ferry’s solo hit “Slave to Love” or the early Roxy Music track “Ladytron,” the depth of sound offered by the orchestra under the baton of conductor Thomas Wilkins added a warmth and depth to familiar songs — “Windswept” was particularly gorgeous, as was the title track of “Avalon” when it later arrived — filling spaces in the songs with a lushness that only added to the romantic feel of Ferry’s music.

And, we should note, the music of others, for Ferry has long been a consummate interpreter of song, too, and at the Bowl on Saturday one early highlight came with his cover of Bob Dylan’s “Simple Twist of Fate,” a number on which guitarist Chris Spedding performed a few lovely solo bits and Ferry himself finished off with a Dylan-esque turn on harmonica.

Much of Ferry’s set was the same as it’s been on earlier non-orchestral dates on his tour this year. The pairing of the solo songs “Bête Noire” and “Zamba” showed up midway through as they usually do, as did the Roxy numbers “In Every Dream Home a Heartache” — perhaps my favorite song of many on this night — and “More Than This” and “Avalon” soon thereafter.

If anything, the show was a few songs shorter due to the time constraints of shows at the Hollywood Bowl, and maybe six or seven songs fewer than the standout performance he delivered at the Microsoft Theatre in downtown Los Angeles a year ago. But the trims were mostly judicious — a cover of Neil Young’s “Like a Hurricane,” a track or two off his most recent album, “Avonmore” — and the trade-off of losing a few Roxy numbers (“Editions of You” dropped out of the encore Saturday) was more than made up for by the rarer nature of the performance on this night.

And Ferry, while not saying much during the show, clearly seemed delighted to be delivering his music in the manner in which it arrived Saturday. Three of his four sons were somewhere in the crowd, and when he did address the audience midway through the night it was simply to note how thrilled he was to be at the Bowl with the orchestra for this final date on his 2017 U.S. tour.

The main set closed at a peak with the Roxy Music songs “Love Is the Drug,” as slinky and sexy as ever, and the band’s early ’70s single “Virginia Plain,” one of a handful of songs in the show so purely and energetically rocking that the orchestra sat out.

After a brief break to acknowledge the crowd’s cheers and applause, the encore closed things out with “Do the Strand” and the always gorgeous “Jealous Guy,” Ferry’s signature version of the John Lennon song, a final reminder of the moving quality of a singer perfectly matched with a song, and a band and orchestra perfectly combined.

Jazz singer Cécile McLorin Salvant opened for Ferry, and though almost certainly unknown by many in the three-quarters-full Bowl had fully won them over by the end of her 40 minutes on stage. Performing with the backing of a terrific jazz trio, Salvant sang a mix of jazz tunes (“Devil May Care,” “Nothing Like You,” both Bob Dorough numbers), pop songs (Burt Bacharach’s “Wives and Lovers,” a gender-reassigned take on the Beatles’ “And I Love Her”) and interpretations of show tunes (“The Trolley Song” and “Something’s Coming”).

Only 27 years old and with just three albums released, Salvant’s charming personality and incredible voice surely indicate a lot more success in her future. After she closed her set with an awe-inspiring take on “Something’s Coming” from “West Side Story,” a good part of the audience rose to give her a standing ovation, and some could still be heard marveling at that final high note she hit during the intermission between her set and Ferry’s.
