NEW Mini-Collection: Ode to a (punk?) Lilly Pullitzer

As posted before, when Lilly Pulitzer died this year we were so sad.  Her elegant, cheerful summer dresses have always been exactly the thing to perk up a miserably hot day.  It doesn't hurt that the likes of Jacki O adored them too!
Jackie + LillyP courtesy of lovely blog Elements of Style, thx!

Just for kicks, in homage to her fabulous legacy we created a small collection of One-of-a-Kind -but you knew that- upcycled wool skirts imagining Lilly as a city girl 2013; a Preppy Punk if you will:-) 
We've included a few for the youngster mini skirt crowd and a few you could wear to the office.   A cashmere sweater, boots or tall Mary Janes and voila! a dashing, unique look.  As Lilly P herself said:
 

“I didn't set out to be unusual or different. I just wanted to do things my way.”

Available until they're gone! 



There's no doubt wearing one of these will establish "your way"!  Cheers to being original.

Honest to Goodness Punk


For the last few months I've been wallowing in my favorite punk and surf punk bands again (Black Flag, Agent Orange, Cro-Mags), dusting them off after years of neglect.  And then I read about the Met's  Punk-Chaos-to-Couture event.  Serendipitous a wee bit.  Everyone's celebrating the punk past...
From NYMag there are some great photos in this slide show of music scene photos by Janette Beckman.  
Doesn't Adam Ant (r) look amazing?  Head-to-toe leather w/ cowboy talls + kilt; love.  So many designers have riffed on this look ever since the early 80s haven't they?

And this has to be the coolest biker jacket I've ever seen, shown on a bloke called Eddie (center) from Tenpole Tudor:
