Braccialini: Oh my gorgeous!

Filed under: Handbags, Stores We Love, Accessories, Style in the News, Shoes


It's as though the purse just bloomed from amidst the other blossoms...
Why haven't I heard of Carla Braccialini? I walked by the store in Soho and did a double take. Their window was stocked with bold, bright, matching patent leather shoes and bags. It was so cool I had to stop in for a gander.

Look at this stuff on their great flash site! These lines don't even include the bright red and multicolored items I saw in their window. Look at the classy Looney Tunes stuff! I can't believe I just said that!

Retro Princess style from Sublet Clothing: Look great, avoid pandas

Filed under: Stores We Love, Style in the News, Clothing, Dresses

I secretly want to wear this to a wedding and tell the bride to shove it.Inessah and Tara are two New York ladies who found each other through Craigslist as subletter and sublet-ee in college.

"Two years later, after having worked traditional careers, Tara and Inessah missed the spontaneous community, independence and creativity they felt when subletting. So over lunch one day, they decided they would create their own permanent sublet through Sublet Clothing."

--Subletclothing.com

I'm not sure how logical that is, but I don't care. Look at this dress! A sweet, curve-skimming cut with an unusual non-halter-style bow at the back. It's made of organic cotton, spandex, and bamboo. Sixty-seven percent bamboo!

In fact, all of their simple, elegant clothing is made with bamboo. How exotic! How perfect for the Retro Princess! You could slay a black and white party, a garden party, or even just a nice dinner in any of their items. The only place I wouldn't recommend wearing these clothes is the zoo. 'Cause, you know. Pandas.

Shop Oprah

Filed under: Stores We Love, Celebrities with Style

Oprah Winfrey's name on anything seems to give it extra clout and allure to buyers, now Oprahphiles will have a shop all their own. The first ever Oprah-branded retail store is across street from her Harpo Studios in Chicago. Construction has just begun and no opening date has been announced. The store will be full of Oprah-logo merchandise such as totes and workout gear that are already for sale online in Oprah's boutique as well as books in Oprah's book club and other items Oprah chooses such as such as African baskets and art. The store will also include a small cafe. It seems like this is planned to be just a one-off store but could we perhaps be facing an empire of Oprah stores across the land?

Is Gap gearing up for a comeback?

Filed under: Stores We Love

I've started to become a bit fascinated by the cyclical nature of brand trends. As we've seen before, Gap has gone from hip to forgotten to hip to totally over-saturated. Coach has gone from slightly stodgy luxury brand to mall-lover's delight and, in my opinion, H&M is headed down the same path from known by a few, to loved by many, to eventually passing out of fashion. But like an actor who appears in too many movies, then disappears off the radar for a while and returns to star in a blockbuster and becomes more popular than ever could Gap be headed for a comeback? Shannon who blogs for Pierce Mattie PR says emphatically yes. She thinks recent reorganizational moves have put Gap in a prime position to recapture the hearts of America. I'm not entirely convinced but certainly the Red campaign is a good place to start and I think they've got something pretty good going with Piperlime. I also think that they have a very good basic concept in Forth & Towne, their line aimed at the older consumer which also goes up to size 20 but that they haven't really done enough to promote it yet. Hey, maybe Gap is back...
