Vancouver Update: New Stuff!


Exciting news, Vancouver: we have the Garden State dress in stock! And yes, I can honestly say they were worth the wait. (Apparently I'm not the only one who thought this, as we sold out of the dark, charcoal grey/black colour pretty quickly when they came in on Friday.) At the moment we have all sizes (sm, med, lg) available in the lovely, warm, taupe-y grey pictured above, but we should have more of the charcoal/black and--yeee!--some garnet hues in by the end of the week. The fabric is a fantastic blend of cotton, hemp and lycra that has a bit of give, good drape, and a wonderful, slightly nubbly texture that we are pleased as punch about. I have a feeling they are going to go fast on Friday, so feel free to give us a call if you'd like us to put one aside for you....

Also fantastic are these totally wacky, totally awesome skirts that arrived today ($92). Made from some pink plaid wool that Glenda and Trish discovered a few weeks ago, these skirts have a slight flair to them and hit right at the knee--so cute! So, if you need a playfully pink winter skirt covered with prancing deer--seriously, where do those two find this stuff??--we've got you covered.

ahhh! the skirt!!
How pink is pink?

Mia said...

by which I mean, is it the colour that it appears in the photo? dark pink? light pink? baby pink?

Hi Mia!

The photo makes the overall tone of skirt look more yellow than it is. The pink is a fun, fresh, true pink (on the fushia end of the scale), while the cream is warm with brown undertones. The yellow stitching is muted mustard - more Dijon than French's. And it's fully lined!

Joanna (of It's All Happening) just tried it on the with Boatneck Tee and the Wanderluxe Sweater and it looked awesome.

Glenda,
Thanks for the fabulous description! Not sure I'm convinced... I'm sure trying it on (a la Joanna) would convince me, but alas!

I will wait for the next (assuming there is a next!) winter wool skirt.

Mia, there is some teal wool that is waiting for inspiration. When it strikes we'll let you know.
