The Dish on Career, Fashion, Faith, and Family

Fashion Fridays: Interesting Items

October 31, 2014 by Gindi 2 Comments

I’m often asked “what are the trends” in fashion in any given year.  I might embrace a color or pattern that’s trending, but I rarely make entire fashion style choices based on trend because it may not work for my style, size, or age.

What I love to find, instead, are interesting items.  Unique pieces in a particular boutique or city or even a quirky item in a larger set of stores that might add some flare to an existing ensemble.

I realized how much I’m drawn to distinguishing characteristics when I was enjoying girl time at Allume in Greenville this past weekend.  My darling friend Kristen and I found a little time to shop Friday afternoon and here are a few of the items we spotted:

1.  We each picked up one of these incredibly soft infinity scarves for $30 from a local Greenville boutique, but mine was this irresistible dove gray chevron pattern:

2.  We popped into Anthropologie and they had two wonderful items:  first were these gloves with uber feminine leather bow details at the wrist (in lavender and teal!!) and the second was this double sided neck scarf/ascot that had faux fur on one side and a lovely patterned sweater fabric on the flip side:

3.  Booties are everywhere, but these gorgeous burgundy boots from Nine West are crazy with lovely details; besides the rich fall color,  they have this lovely scalloped cut out detail and a zipper in back – distinctive from most booties on the market:

Don’t you love stumbling on something that doesn’t look like everything else in the market?  Tell me, what’s your favorite hidden boutique in your neighborhood?

    Yes – the buyer at Thompson and Hanson told me that FUR is going to be big this season. Also – camo green! But, I’m starting to like teal/turquoise.

      You know, I sort of like camo green, so I’m good with that!

Welcome

Come on in. I have a reservation just for you. I know life is busy. I would love for us to step out for a relaxing lunch but schedules don't always allow. So let's pop open that salad or sandwich sitting in front of our computers, and we'll have lunch right here. A few minutes is all we need to connect to community.
