Outfits : Bright, Clean Greys

Mercy grey wool dress | Mina Perhonen Intarsia Cardigan

A very simple and beautiful look of bright, clean greys.

This minimalist wool sleeveless dress can be an absolute wardrobe staple. Layer a thin breton stripe shirt or fitted long sleeve t-shirt underneath, or try a jacket or cardigan over top – both if it’s cold! This grey and white Intarsia cardigan by Mina Perhonen is made in Japan and absolutely stunning. We have included a number of views so you can get an idea of just how special it is – and while light and bright in feel, this outfit is winter appropriate, made of wool.

New Arrivals : Chausser FW 2014

chausser_blue
Chausser Blue chelsea boot with low heel

Made in Japan, Chausser crafts beautiful, beautiful footwear. If you look closely, the attention to detail in design and construction are completely impressive. You just don’t see boots like this elsewhere. Each style here is unique, serving a different form and function. Really, it will be hard not to buy one of each.

Chausser Black moto boot

This is really a chelsea boot in disguise, as there are hidden elastic panels on either side, that allow you to simply slip them on, with the help of a shoe horn. This is also the only style that already has vibram rubber soles – saving you a visit to the cobbler.

Stunning. These look great over skinny jeans, or with a casual dress. I’m already thinking about how great these will look with some of the Antipast hosiery!

Fall Outfits

Roberto Collina 3/4 sleeve knit jacket | Mercy Liberty Wool top | Iosselliani necklace | Jamin Puech Carabosse purse | Handmade leather palm crochet back cork gloves by Dents | Mercy quilted Liberty skirt

Looking for some Fall outfit inspiration? With cooler weather come great opportunities for layering! We’ve got knits from Roberto Collina in neutral colours, some with a hint of metallic to add a little sparkle to any outfit. Here the 3/4 sleeve knit jacket is layered over a Mercy Liberty print top (see above) and dress (see below).

Finally, accessories are best not overlooked! They really complete an outfit and give a place for the eye to rest. I’m constantly surprised how the complex and colourful Iosselliani pieces look so right with everything from a floral printed blouse to a graphic t-shirt.

Remember that mixing colour, texture, and even pattern can lead to a rich and satisfying outfit. If ever you have a question about styling or if you’re just wondering whether or not something is working, feel free to ask on your next visit. We would love to help you put together an amazing outfit!
