Society Pieces

These new Karen Walker resort pieces are reminiscent of Slim Aarons’ iconic photographs of the jet set in the 50s and 60s. Rich colors, glamorous people and exotic settings were the themes of his images and KW’s swell pieces would fit right in. They have a timeless quality to them and the pops of tiffany and royal blue are so posh. We suggest accessorizing with a martini. Click on the image for product details.

ATTENTION! Military Jackets are Major.

That’s what Style.com reported today. And we couldn’t agree more. They are functional, flattering, and when paired with an unexpected piece such as a frilly dress or sequin top, they become a major fashion item. I must give my partner props for being an early adopter of this trend. Back in February when we were buying fall 09, she was rocking her dad’s old army jacket with a Marc Jacobs dress (I like to think she helped this trend catch on).  Then we walked into the Gryphon showroom and saw designer Aimee Cho’s version - a classic vintage army jacket with a salvaged fur collar - so simple and so cool. And each jacket is one of a kind! Click on the image to shop - we have two unique Gryphon Army Jackets in stock.
