floral Friday…

A big thanks to Indulge magazine for featuring some great pieces from YAH in the April spread Petal Power!

We are huge fans of the florals (if you missed our earlier post – or just need a refresher – on floral pants click here) and were thrilled to see some of our favorites styled so beautifully.

Like this dress from designer Corey Lynn Calter…

and these darling little pants also by Corey Lynn Calter…

and also featured (but not floral) this jacket in a beautiful metallic ivory by Tracey Reese…

it’s lady-like and edgy at the same time…perfect for toning down those bold prints and colors.

In addition to these great floral pieces we have some floral new arrivals from Haute Hippie (this print is also available as a silk jacket).

So don’t wait for someone to bring you flowers…come on in and pick some up!

OPEN:

Monday – Wednesday – Friday

10 a.m. – 3 p.m.

mix it up a bit…

We loved the article in the April issue of 360West  about mixing it up and going bold with your patterns and prints.

We are especially  fond of these two photos!

(expertly taken of the actual magazine via our phone…we are nothing if not professional!)

We can’t get enough of  these darling black & white pants from Waverly Grey.  Comfortable and flattering…can you ask for more?

And this dress from Australian designers Camilla & Marc is fun and edgy without being too over the top.

(And P.S…both of those darling items can be found at You Are Here…smile!)

And, if you want a little more inspiration for boldly mixing it up a bit, here you go….

So, have some fun, take some chances and mix things up a bit!

Love the idea but need a little help?

Never fear!  We have got great pieces to get you started – fun scarves, florals and bold prints in both tops and bottoms, and animal print blouses  (after all an animal print is one of the best neutrals and a great starting point for pattern mixing).

And, as if you need more incentive to come by and see us, we have some great new arrivals this week:

Gold Hawk, Splendid, Fluxus, Current/Elliott, Gypsy jewelry, The Woods Fine Jewelry,  as well as some fun colored denim from DL1961.

pom poms…

Why is it that some words can just make you giggle at the mere sound?  I mean, there’s nothing particularly funny about a pom-pom but just try saying pom-pom without smiling…even if it is just the tiniest little grin…bet you can’t do it!

You know what makes us smile even more?

Scarves with pom-poms!

We couldn’t ask for more than this darling scarf by Koch (one of our favorite local designers) in beautiful spring colors adorned with the cutest little pom-poms!

Just makes us smile!

And there’s more from Koch – brand new arrivals…

We just LOVE this new pink dress!

That’s not all…just all that we have photos of right now!

Trust us…the other pieces are worth a look.  And, as usual we only ordered a few of each piece so you might want to hustle!

OPEN:

Monday – Wednesday – Friday

10 a.m. – 3 p.m.

If you love the darling little quote up top you can order it here from Shop Furbish.  And if you aren’t familiar with the very talented Jamie Meares you should check out her on-line shop and her blog…great finds and very entertaining!

a thank you to Tommy Ton…

You may be saying to yourself, “Tommy who?”  Which is what we would have been saying in the pre-pinterest days but just look at how much we have learned from pinterest!   And we thought we were just wasting time…smile!

Gorgeous, huh?

Feeling inspired?

We have many great new arrivals -

Gold Hawk, Current/Elliott, Equipment, Smythe &

Mes Desmoiselles (a brand new line for us from Paris)

hello spring!

A little spring color inspiration for you!

Whether your appetite for bright colors screams “the brighter the better” or whispers “just a pop will do”, we can all agree a little bit of color is just what we need for welcoming spring!

And either way…we  think those clever girls at  Sugar Paper couldn’t have said it better…

Happy Friday!

A.N.D…a new denim brand

We are so excited to tell you about a new denim brand…really, that’s the name:

A.N.D.

a new denim

We’ve brought in 5 different styles – straight leg, crops, skinny, distressed and slouchy…something for everyone!

Not only is A.N.D. new to us, but it is a whole new way of looking at denim.  The brand is based around a revolutionary fabric process exclusive to A.N.D.  The creators of the brand took pure, untreated denim and transformed it into a soft and worn-in fabric without using water during the process, thus maintaining the authenticity and integrity of the indigo dyed denim.

As no water is used during the making of the jeans, A.N.D. provides “wears” rather than the traditional “washes”.  The line provides three different “wears” – 50 wears, 150 wears and 250 wears.  Sean Barron, the founder of the brand notes, “A year ago I started working with the most prestigious denim mills to develop a process that would take the pure raw indigo denim and break it down.  Once the fabric has gone through the process we are able to truly create jeans that look and feel as if they have been worn without being washed.“

A.N.D. stems from the thought that women love the look and color of raw denim jeans but do not like the stiff and uncomfortable feel.  With the unique no water process A.N.D. provides authentic raw denim styles while eliminating the time and effort it takes to “wear” in the jeans.

The A.N.D. design team is comprised of true “jeaners” who took a note from denim’s roots by bringing back the authentic jean, using indigo dyed yarn with a focus on construction, fit and quality.  “We feel that authentic jeans are missing from the market and everything feels very trend driven.  We are going back to heritage jeanswear and not focusing on the latest trends,” says Barron.

Check out this article from WWD to see what they have to say about the line.

(FYI…you can click the picture to make it bigger and a little easier to read)

We love the line and are thrilled to be the first and only boutique carrying it in Fort Worth.  You know us,  always on the look-out for great new finds!

Just in case you are wondering who else is brining A.N.D. to their customers…

Elyse Walker

American Rag

Barneys

Elements

We think that puts us in some pretty good company…

Come on by to meet our new denim brand and give it a spin!

white jeans

We have to admit it…we didn’t think we were “rule breaker” types but I guess a peek at our history would tell you otherwise.

(Like the crazy idea to open a “full time/part time” store that is only open 3 days a week…hmmm)

And now for another rule we think should be broken…the silly no white jeans/pants before Memorial Day “rule”.

Really, we just not down with that!  If you wait too long to break out your whites it will be 1,000,000 degrees and so hot the last thing you will want to put on is jeans…so we say break ‘em out NOW!

Why not?  It’s fun to break a few rules every now and then!

We have great white jeans in all styles – boyfriends, skinny, petite bootcut – from all the brands you love -

Current/Elliott, J Brand, DL1961 and a brand new line…A.N.D.

Come by to find your perfect white jean!

OPEN:

Monday – Wednesday – Friday

10 a.m. – 3 p.m.

a much needed break…

It’s that time…

Spring Break is here…so we are NOT!

Just a reminder…we are closed this week and will re-open Monday, March 18.

Happy Spring Break!

See you next week!
