Coterie and spring 2013

Let's skip winter and go right into spring!  Wouldn't that be great...  Jess and I attended Coterie a few weeks ago and had that exact sentiment.  We were blown away by French Connection, Clover Canyon, Free People, BB Dakota, and our new favorite line, Maison Scotch.  
This French Connection dress will be in my closet.  Oh yeah.  They had some pretty amazing dresses, perfect for weddings and graduation parties.  
Free People was bohemian as ever...

The Shiny Squirrel and Elizabeth Knight

Jessica and Elizabeth
These are two of my favorite NYC ladies.  Jessica aka The Shiny Squirrel, is a genius at spotting new talent, is an awesome stylist and has overall amazing taste in everything!   We discovered Elizabeth Knight through Jessica and she was an instant hit with us and our customers.  Her work is fabulous and she couldn't be a nicer person.  It's such a treat to get to meet the your favorite artist in person and discuss their work and the direction they see their jewelry going.  


p.s. they are both on Instagram if you want to follow some great people

Gypsies and Debutantes

Summer time - when I was growing up, summer meant going to the beach, making life long friends and writing to them all winter until you saw them again the next summer.  Sometimes we would seal the friendship with a bracelet.  Forever friends.  The friendship bracelet is back and better than ever!  Check out these beauties from Gypsies and Debutantes

I'm back!!!  I had such a great time on the west coast.  The weather was amazing, the people were so friendly and I got to explore the great city of San Francisco.  The picture above was from the day that the lovely Rebecca took me to the Japanese tea garden, located in the Golden Gate park.  The key to dressing in San Francisco is layers - it can be scorching one minute and then freezing the next!  I'm wearing a dress from All Saints, leather jacket from Emu and pyrrha necklaces.  I also treated myself to some new frames when I was in NYC (McQueen - swoon)...



Here are my awesome hosts - Rebecca and Scott in Sonoma.  The California style is truly laid back - I'm wearing a Scotch & Soda linen top, a French Connection bikini top and Kersh shorts.  This was considered "dressed up".  I can't wait to go back...SLJ branch on the west coast?!

One more day and I'm heading out on vacation!  I'm going to NYC first to order the Giles and Brother fall collectionI've seen the line sheets and it looks AMAZING!  The first group is called Dark Glamour - think sirens, sorceresses and goddesses.  Oh yeah, I might be placing a lot of personal pieces in this order.  

After my showroom appointment, I meeting up with The Shiny Squirrel (Jessica) for lunch.  Her showroom is responsible for all of the new fabulous pieces we've been carrying.  If you don't follow her on facebook or instagram, you should.  Her pictures are to die for.  

Jessica suggested that we meet at Freemans for lunch - yes please! 
Now all I have to do is pack.  I'm planning on bringing mostly black and white, some denim, and layers, since the second half of my trip will bring me to San Francisco!  I have to bring the Corey Lynn Calter jumpsuit pictured at the top of the page -it's too cute to leave home!
