trend spotting

 

At first glance, printed silk pants & long skirts are a bit intimidating for Spring, no? But look further and you'll see they are rather easy to wear. Pair either trend with a neutral, streamlined top and you've got an ensemble that looks pretty fabulous and feels pretty casual.

That said, we have a huge crush on this little silk number from Rodebjer - the poppy print goes well with black, and the silk 'shorts' liner is quite cheeky. Love. Pick up your own pair here.

Sweater Weather

We're in the midst of a beautiful Northeastern Fall, and things are just as they should be - it's cool and sunny out and the Phillies are in the playoffs. What better time to break out gorgeous knitwear that is casual and comfortable!

Shown here: Cashmere blend knit pants by La Verte, cropped cotton sweater by Rodebjer, knit hat by FreePeople, and flocked scarf by Leigh & Luca.

Little sweaters are a big trend this season, and we especially love these versions by Rodebjer and Dolce Vita. The collegiate sweater, here in navy, is soft, has kitchy cut-outs at the elbow, and the longer length along the backside give a flattering line. Also available in heather grey.

 

 
As always, FreePeople is tops for cozy and cute knitwear. Paired with the Stilt jean by AG Denim, the Shopper by Jas M.B. and bundle of scarves by LoveQuotes.

Below is the chicest field coat ever, part of Isabel Marant's incredible Etoile collection for Fall. As with most of her pieces, it can be styled several different ways and worn pretty much year round. Features both button and drawstring enclosure, along with a removable fleece lining that is a killer piece all on it's own.

a (dream) week's worth of wares

The Shopis officially filled with incredibly versatile pieces for Fall & Winter! We thought we'd show them off in a week's worth of lustworthy outfits.

Black Knits

We could live in both of these pieces! The Katie Dress by Iro has a soft structure that makes it comfortable and a great piece from day to night. The oversized sweater dress by Eternal Child kind of makes us want to jump up on down on the bed and start a pillow fight. Paired with a lightweight and roomy canvas bag by Leigh & Luca.

 

Blue Print

Both of these looks are long and lean, and in the blue & charcoal palette that we will never stop loving. Ever.

Society For Rational Dress nailed the Fall Maxi Dress trend with this flattering scoop neck version. It's comfortable, not overwhelming in weight and amazingly flattering. Paired with a nubby little vest by Rodebjer that, so far, seems to go with absolutely everything we try to pair it with. On the right we have the classic cool leather jacket by Line, paired with the only blouse ever that could be described as both "pretty" and "leopard print". Finally, check out the new jewelry styles by Low Luv X Erin Wasson - especially the shark's tooth bangle that comes in silver and gold. I mean, come on.

 

 

Fall Florals

We needed a break from describing all of the great 'military' pieces in house (but we'll probably get back to it next week) so this army green top by Iro falls into the "florals" category for now. But, it's really comfortable and the coloring is great. Actual floral scarf is by Antik Batik. The boots and leather satchel are soft and chocolate brown, slightly rugged but still feminine.

Floral dress is by Rodebjer. The print is vibrant and the cut of the dress is very clean and works well alone or belted.

 

 

Like what you see? Stop by the Shop, we are open every day. Or give a call and we'll give you more info and pictures. Or, check back next week, when we go live with the online shop!
 

Rodebjer

Carin Rodebjer started out in 1999 while studying at F.I.T. in New York. After being spotted on the street wearing her handmade designs, she started selling at some high profile stores in New York. Returning to her native country of Sweden in 2001, Rodebjer continued her dedication of creating a line of clothing that reflected her ideas of combining contemporary and at the same time classic design with wearability.

The kind of people I admire have a timeless quality, and that’s also how I want my collections to feel,” Carin explains.

We've been carrying Rodebjer for a few years now, and the collection has always been under the radar, yet utterly cool. A few great new pieces from Caryn's spring collection arrived this week, including graphic tees and tunics that layer well for the winter, and will look so fresh come spring.
