Fresh Picks: Bold Spring Graphics in Black + White

 We've been stocking the shop with some of our favorite wardrobe staples- polka dots, stripes and a whole lot of bold black and white. Our goal: to offer items you'll wear with joy and gusto,


not just pretty pieces to hang idly in your closet. Your life is your runway, and if you're not strutting your stuff, we're not doing our job right.   

Shop the Look:

Skater Betty Body Con Dress in Size 8. $19 (free US ship) Buy it HERE.
Happy Campers: Bowling for Hollers. Pre-loved size 38, $26. BUY HERE
A bit different from the above spinster/school marm vibe is my  studio rendition of a skater Betty. I absolutely love the quality of this nearly new, resort print spandex body con dress- something I can see a svelte skateboarder surf on the sidewalks. The fabric is thick and so stretchy, and the print is so bold, I couldn't help but love the dress. However the hem, is a bit too high for my comfort levels. Here's wishing it finds a good, leggy home!

  11. I love that tunic dress on you. Suits you well.
    The bowling shoes... I had these. From Prada. A gift from my friend Anja, who got them from her parent's store. (So you don't think I can actually afford Prada haha).
