CONGRATULATION TO OUR WINNER HARRIET HU. THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR ENTERING!
I wrote about the brand new collection Eighteenth back in November and am more than thrilled to offer you the chance to win one of their tanks! Spring ’10 being their debut season, Eighteenth is a collection of t-shirts created by designer Alexa Galler. I say T-shirt, but this collection is more than just a bunch of tees. Galler focuses on simple, bold shapes, asymmetry and “doing the most with the least”. Spring is composed of six different shapes, each one available in either a black, or white soft poly blend. Make sure to check out their Website.

Designer Mary Meyer will be in the bay area on Saturday 2/27. Damn….I wish I didn’t have to miss it. I could use another biggie tee! She’s teaming up with friends Facade Vintage for a sample sale, where she’ll be selling tons and tons of fall and spring ’09 goods, some not even featured online. It goes without saying the prices will be low.
Here are the details:
Where: 63 Yosemite, Oakland, 94611
When: Saturday 2/27 from 12 to 630

Care for a L.B.D.? I’m planning all the different ways I can can style of one Brooklyn-based designer Dona Monroe’s Little Black numbers. Spring 2010 is Monroe’s debut collection. Grab one for yourself online at Frances May, or view the entire collection online at DonaMonroe.com.

Google Tina Frey and you’ll be asked if you meant “Tina Fey”. But if you keep searching you’ll find designer Tina Frey’s gorgeous hand-sculpted resin jewelry, vases, and other great pieces, not the 30 Rock star. I quickly fell in love with one of her Macy bubble necklaces but was just as impressed with her white flower necklace, and while it’s not her characteristic translucent resin…her new leather handbag collection, made to order.
Shop the collection online at TinaFreyDesigns.com or in Portland at Una.

Caron Callahan’s Spring 2010 collection of subtle, feminine clothing makes me yearn for the summer. For spring Callahan was inspired by old photos of a quiet beach in Cape Cod and the classic New England weekend. It may not be as romantic, but I’ll be re-interpreting one of these classic weekends at the beach in Los Angeles, hopefully wearing one of these jackets or a pair of those shorts! Standard Finery’s spring 2010 collection will be available shortly at jumelle.

Saying I love Brooklyn based boutique jumelle is an understatement. Their mix of classic staples, Parisian-cool wares, and a grown-up girly vibe sets my heart aflutter every season and it’s reassuring to know that there is such a nice woman behind the boutique. Owner Candice Waldron took time out of her very busy schedule to answer a few of my questions about the boutique, her favorites this spring, and some other stuff:
S.B.: Do you have any favorite new designers for spring?
C.W.: Ostwald Hegalson: I was instantly taken with this line when I came across it last year in Paris. There was no doubt that I would be ordering this collection for the shop. Based in London, Susanne Ostwald and Ingvar Hegalson create narrative prints and employ a kaleidoscope of colors in their designs.
Standard Finery is designed by Williamsburg local Caron Callahan. Prior to starting her own collection Callahan worked at Barneys, Derek Lam and Steven Alan. She has created a collection “for women who love beautiful clothes but don’t need to make a fuss about them.”
Anntian: I have had my eye on this Berlin-based line for a couple of years now and it will finally be available at jumelle this Spring. Anntian is designed by Anne Hilken and Christian Kurt, one of the sweetest couples I’ve met. Their line is artistic, geometric, offbeat and modern.

Mohawk General Store opened in the Echo Park neighborhood of Los Angeles about a year ago, and since then I’ve been waiting for a fully-stocked online boutique to pop up. Kinda strange because I pretty much live right next door to Echo Park but by reading this blog you’ve probably noticed I have a thing for online shopping. Regardless, they’re online now so you (and I) can shop their neatly organized selection of shoes, accessories and home goods from designers like Slow and Steady Wins the Race, Mary Meyer and The Generic Man, all from the comforts of home or work or wherever you shop online.
