new dresses from orion london

ooooooh! it’s just so exciting when a shipment of Orion dresses comes in. tough choices, though…I have to decide which ones go in the window, which ones go on the mannequins, and which ones go home with me. ^_^

here we have the Salvia dress (love that asymmetric neckline), the Lotti dress (knee-length kimono inspired prettiness), and the Asako dress (flirty mini with deep v-neck). gorgeous deep florals on black backgrounds - perfect for fall and on into winter!

UPDATE: We now have just one left of the Salvia and Asako dresses, so call us if you want one held for you!

here are two new pieces from Flux, an LA line…curve-conscious and adorable. the denim skirt is perfectly flattering with its slight ruching. it’s now one of my go-to wardrobe essentials!

I am CRAZY about these new scarves (necklaces? wearable art?) from Elizabeth Gillett! They remind me of the freeform necklaces I used to piece together out of sewing scraps…but so much more polished and refined.

pictured are the Sheridan (jersey and fringe), Beck (ribbon, chain, and fringe), Neve (jersey and fringe), and Daria (silk).

new susana monaco!

just received these lovely pieces from Susana Monaco: the supercute bubble offshoulder top in danube, the gathered front top in azzuro, and the darling funnel tunic in malachite. I LOVE these cool colors for fall - the danube is especially yummy!

new shipment of flat wallets from Paige

we recently started carrying this hugely popular line of very compact flat wallets by Paige. they come in three sizes - 5 1/2″ long, 8″ long, and 10″ long - all just 1/2″ thick. even better, they come in so many juicy colors and textures! and…they sell for $15 to $25.

truly essential!

the gorgeously luxe Margaret top in gold is one of three delectable pieces we got from Trina Turk this week, along with the Samara top (a beautifully draped shortsleeve cowlneck top, also in gold) and the Dancer top (a pink and black lowcut sleeveless number - VERY hot and VERY pre-holiday).

this line has been a hot seller for a while now, and I think you can see why: they combine incredible design (inspired by good stuff from new wave to ancient Egypt to art deco to the funky 70s) with really lovely materials (hand-applied enamel, sterling silver, and 24k gold wash) with amazing prices ($22 to $40).

wow.
