The Fall

It's here!  er...  or at least the clothes are!

I know it's hot out there, but wow, we really have some amazing new pieces that will set you up for an amazingly fashionable fall season.

Here's your jam of the day to help you peruse...





It's kind of the Canadian invasion over here, and it's no wonder,  they do such lovely things up north!

first,
Betina Lou!
Hailing from Montreal, where all of her clothes are made, we love her, we really do.
Sweet, amazingly tailored looks, timeless and feminine.
From her lookbook:


The cutest every navy wool sweater with three-quarter length sleeves and brass button detail at the shoulders,
paired with a khaki twill skirt with dark buttons and great side pockets.
Such a great finish look.

This shirt is just de-lovely.  Burgundy yarn-dyed with pleating detail at the front and contrasting buttons, and a cute little collar.
Paired with a navy twill pencil skirt with button and removable strap detail at the waist.  
So so flattering on every silhouette.

Just look at Marissa!
she looks so pretty!  And love the navy on navy.


I just  love this skirt!
cutest pocket lining ever:


So many lovelies from Betina Lou.


 wool and tencil sweater with sweet collar and covered buttons


amazing wool houndstooth dress with lush satin lining and removable straps!



And now:
Based in Vancouver (that's BC people, not the 'couve), Allison not only wants you to look good, but wants you to feel good.  As in you should be able to enjoy all of that great food and drink from our amazing Pacific Northwest and still look great in that dress!

Case in point:
Great structured pieces that are just begging to be worn with a great pair of boots!



Navy wool dress with front pockets and exposed zipper detail




Classic red wool skirt with pockets and exposed side zipper




And now:
Hailing from the Vancouver area as well, pairing amazing design with social and environmental responsability.  What else could you ask for!

Organic cotton knit tank with long back and side pleat detail in midnight blue.


Upcycled brown and black plaid shirt dress with covered buttons.


Here's the sweater Marissa was wearing with the khaki Betina Lou skirt, super fine organic cotton ribbed, with sheer paneling.


 Chocolate brown organic cotton cardigan with cable knit detail, perfect for layering



And now:
Also hailing from Vancouver, We3 is a collaboration between 3 amazing gals who take inspiration from YOU, The Modern Woman.  They want you to be comfortable, stylish, and environmentally sensitive.
Ohhh, look at that!  
The Treble tunic is a blend of organic cotton, hemp and just a touch of spandex for fit.  
Doesn't Marissa look hot!  
You can flip it upside down and have a shirt with an extra super long cowl too.


 Teal Kimono top, with 3/4 sleeves, viscose from modal with just a bit of spandex.
Great everyday basic, but with a color and drape you can dress up.


Oh look!  It's basically the same top, but in a beautiful taupe color, and 
100% super fine merino wool.  Oh luxury....



And now:
Vicarious By Nature, or as we heart them, VBN.
Surprisingly NOT from Canada, this made in L.A. label features super yummy soft organic cotton fleece knits pretty enough to dress up.

Dolman sleeved top in sweet heathered eggplant.


Super lux oversized cardigan with huge collar.  The coziest thing ever.


Swing by once you can stand to try some of these beauties on!  It won't be this hot forever. 
I know I'm ready for some good old Portland grey skies...
