Mommy and Me: Miló Tricot for all Ages

by Tina on September 2, 2010

This is one of the most adorable concepts. Miló is a Brooklyn-based brand created by Mireia López, that began with a collection of modern sweaters for girls, and soon after introduced the same effortless styles for the grown up kind.  Fall/Winter 2010-11 will be her first season for all ages, and includes a variety of masterful basics, with unexpected cuts and incredible detail. Each item is truly ageless, and if I had a little one I’d love to play dress up together w/ these pieces.

Thank you Una for constantly introducing me to new + exciting talent!

New to the Shopping Guide: Convent New York + Online

by Tina on August 30, 2010

Convent fell off my radar for a while, but I revisited their site recently in search of this Jackson Clutch, and then proceeded to kick myself for not posting earlier! Relatively new to New York’s LES, Convent has an ovarall dark vibe (lot’s of black), and stocks a  wonderful selection of lessor-known designers like Postmodern Tease (shredded to perfection!), Costume Dept, Backstage, Jackson (that clutch I just mentioned), Sally Lapointe and Dark Matter. Many items online are on sale now, but there are also some early fall arrivals by Dusen Dusen + a few others…

Designer Discovery: Annie Larson’s Colorful Knitwear

by Tina on August 26, 2010

Based in Minneapolis, Annie Larson crafts her eponymous collection of colorful knitwear using a Brother KH-950 Electroknit knitting machine. Not shy of color, the average tank, legging, biker short (obsessed!) and even bag consists of an average of five or six different hues. And while her knits are fun and whimsical…Annie means business. She goes into length online about the knitting process.

ALL sweaters are made by me, Annie Lee Larson. Every step of the process to design and produce your sweater is in my hands, made in the storefront studio of my apartment. Though I take great care in constructing each garment, they still carry evidence of a human touch. Be happy to know that your sweater has already been loved by another person before it even gets to you!

Lookbook Lovin’: Snoozer Loser A/W 2010

August 9, 2010

I’ve long been a fan of New York based Snoozer Loser’s charming custom prints and easy style, but my little crush has gotten serious. They’ve released images of A/W ’10 and it’s full of circle skirts, playful jumpers and the most precious scissor print in varying navy/ivory/gold color combos.
