Agnelle: Gorgeous Leather Gloves!!

We love the lambskin gloves made by this old French company (since 1937); they are interesting, beautiful, well made (silk lined) and are my favourite way for hands to survive winter!

R13 Jeans & Sweatshirts

YESSSSSS!!! R13!!! Denim line extraordinaire! Finally we have these highly coveted jeans in store to pair back with all the new cashmere sweaters, blazers and boots!

This gorgeous 'legging' skinny jean in a wonderfully classic blue. Shown here with your new favorite shirt, the sweatshirt for every day (with that perfect vintage feeling) by R13, and a new Rag & Bone blazer that arrived in store the same day.

Shown here: the regular skinny jean in a new lighter wash (called the Indiana Classic - which I think is so awesome, it makes me think of road trips around the southern US, which makes me think of the Sartore western ankle boots we have, which I love!).

The Slouchy Skinny. The new awesome way to do denim. A relaxed drop waist on top which tapers down to a skinny leg. These are known to sell fast, and this new shade is perfetto!

These bad boys are a super exciting new sweat pant style, in the deepest darkest shade of denim.

Alexander Wang: Amazing Knits!

A delivery comprised completely and totally of mouthwateringly good knits! Gorgeous heavy alpaca knit cardigan in black, and oversized cowl neck pullover in charcoal grey.

This super-fine merino cardigan (note the extra long sleeve - to be worn extra long on the hand) is a rather fabulous staple.

Admittedly, we did carry this awesome neckie before, but everyone LOST IT over them, and we wanted them personally, so we re-ordered it. Shown here in charcoal, but also available in black. And, don't worry, we have the beanie to match.

Also worth mentioning (and not shown here): the gorgeous heavy alpaca knit cardigan in black, and oversized cowl neck pullover in charcoal grey.

FORTE.FORTE!!!!!

If you are anything like most of our clients, you wait all year for the extremely few and far between deliveries of the cult little Italian line forte.forte. And 'wait' probably doesn't really describe it... it's something a little bit more uncomfortable, you get a bit anxious... you try and source out substitutes, but nothing really quite does it... and you find yourself back at square one... anxious, not really knowing quite what to do with

yourself... except continue to wait for it to come. THE WAIT IS OVER!!!!

Nili Lotan: 2nd Fall 10 Delivery!

Nili Lotan's deliveries aren't normally as big as this one around here, but we flipped over her collection this season!! This unlined wool wrap jacket is just so soft, easy and elegant. We hope to get some more photos soon, but you might want to pop by sooner rather than later and check out the awesome blouses, cashmere sweaters, and casual pants we have in stock right now.

BOY by Band of Outsiders: 1st Fall 10 Delivery!

The ultimate in perfect preppy-ness, BOY by Band of Outsiders has finally arrived in store!! Two great little black blazers, some really cool casual pants (sweatpants, and drop crotch twill khaki pants), this amazing striped wool sweater, and THE SUSPENDER SKIRT!!! YAY! I love this bad boy.

This blazer is officially titled 'the Schoolboy blazer'. One button, elbow length sleeves, killer fit.

I love the way the fabric of this skirt is constructed...

This blazer is officially called 'the Shawl Collar' blazer. A slightly cropped silhouette with a full length sleeve, and a slightly more formal feeling.

I love the tuxedo finishings. FANCY!!!

Masscob: A New Line at Misch!!

We are very excited to stock this amazing line out of Spain for the first time! Besides being fabulous, it was quite a sizeable delivery: blazers, pants, shirts, and this gorgeous printed silk dress below.

One of the best draped crepe pants ever, paired with a great little cropped plaid cotton button down.

Lutz&Patmos

Hundreds, maybe thousands of amazing items from this delivery of Lutz&Patmos, and the only photo I have is of this gorgeous cashmere tissue scarf in an incredible shade of sapphire (on steroids).

This silk shirtdress is, as you may know, one of my favourite sort of items for the brilliant combination of pulled-together-ness and low-maintenance-ness. I feel like these are both very important qualities which are very rarely found in the same item...

Other amazing items: chunky cardigans (like this gorgeous one pictured below with the silk slip we bought to go with it, and say, the Sartore lace-up boots), sweaters, vests, and sweatshirt wraps.

Bruce II

Another great delivery from this lovely New York duo. Fabulous simple items in silk crepe de chine.

Alexander Wang Ready to Wear

Argh, this always happens. So annoying! Alexander Wang goes and makes some stupid hot dress, and then you go and try it on, and then it looks amazing. It keeps happening, and it is just the worst! Why can't all the dresses be ugly?!!?

Rag & Bone

Cotton knit military style jacket = almost sold out on the first day! It's amazing, obviously.

Man, look at these pockets! Cargo. Fitted. Knit. Pant. Awesome!!!

Gratuitous boot shot.

Silk shirtdress, in plaid. Paired back to these KILLER over the knee Joseph boots.

SARTORE!!!! Our ONE DELIVERY OF THE SEASON!!

The gorgeous, elegant timeless classic riding boot from Sartore. The one that everyone needs!

The lace up boot! A gorgeous distressed looking nubuck leather.

We also love them worn folded over just like so!

This distressed motorcycle-style boot we think is amazing, and rather unusual, in this taupe leather.

A staff favourite, we like it paired back to jeans and dresses. Super comfortable (like everything they make), and featuring a really flattering v-front design.

T by Alexander Wang!! 2nd Fall Delivery!

We don't even have any photo's yet!! An amazing delivery!! Stripes!! New fabrics!! Hot, fitted little dresses, and great layering pieces! You should definitely come check it out if you are a fan.

Gary Graham: 1st Fall Delivery!!

This delivery was all about the awesome Peruvian alpaca knitwear! There are two of his signature up-side down, right side up sweaters. This incredible long one pictured below, and a gorgeous cropped solid charcoal coloured one (that I love over a dress!).
