Spotlight On: Complex Geometries!!!!

Complex Geometries

As of late, I've really been into drapey knits and easy to wear pieces, that are figure conscience, given my current state of being.  With that said, may I introduce a new designer, to me, Clayton Evans, the man behind my new fave: Complex Geometries!  I first discovered this cleverly named clothing and accessory line here(another new love) and found that this line was quite popular, as most of the pieces I spied were either sold out or not available in my size-bummer, but I was still hopeful (as customer service promised to inform me when items were back in stock-gotta love small business, customer service). The Complex line offers clever cowl necks, asymmetrical lines, and multifunctional pieces!!! And the jewelry is simple and chic as well. The line is not too flashy, but definitely leaves a lasting impression...Check out some of my highlights, all of which transition well from Summer to Fall...

My Two New Fav's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My new Fav!

Something Good!!!

So, Ive just stumbled upon two great new designers and I think I'm in Love!!!! Have you heard about The Addison Story or Something Else by Natalie Wood??? Both are two that are new to me and quite fabulous, I might add! Let's start with The Addison Story...I first discovered them in Neiman's Spring Catalog when I spied this dress-Love it! Their line to me evokes a vintage quality-very easy, laid back, fun, flirty, and flouncy! And the price point ($60-250) ain't so bad, either. You can find them locally carried at Rue14 and online here and here. You are sure to be pleased! Next up, Something Else! On a recent trip into one of my local fav's Redeem, I scoped all my usual suspects, Funktional, Kai-Aakmann, etc., I spotted, Something Else that quickly caught my attention! Like little pieces of clothing art, Natalie Wood, designer/artist reigns from down-under-Australia and brings her creative talents to the main land! Clothing with an edge is just how I would describe it! Easy to wear tees, tanks, sweaters, and dresses! Definitely worth checking out here! Need a little eye candy convincing??? Here ya go....

A Floral Inspiration!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just love when I discover a new, creative line of clothing, accessories, and more...It just brings a smile to my face!!! Case and point...EmersonMade This, recently launched line of vintage-like women's wear features some the cutest, basics that I have seen in a while! I love the tweed blazers and flirty blouses. As well as the 70's bell bottoms and cute clutch bags, offset with a blooming, hand-dyed flower! An ode to Carrie Bradshaw, if you will! The handcrafted treats, including hair accessories, make for an ideal bridal party gift!!! The line was recently featured on Daily Candy! To read more about EmersonMade, click here. To me, EmersonMade is a mesh between Jcrew and Anthropologie...Im guessing these were both sources of inspiration!!!

It's sure to put a smile on your face too!
