September’s Shopping Favorites
THIS MONTH WE SELECTED A FEW PIECES PERFECT FOR LAYERED LOOKS IN AUTUMN. FIND A NONCHALANT VINTAGE TRENCHCOAT THAT LOOKS JUST AS CHIC OVER A SUMMER DRESS AS IT DOES WITH JEANS AND A TURTLENECK SWEATER, A FLOOR LENGHT DRESS THAT WILL LOOK STUNNING WITH A STRUCTURED BLAZER, AND A CONTRASTED COLLAR SHIRT PERFECT WITH A BELT AROUND THE WAIST.

Founded by Karen Wood and Angela Postels in 2018

Long story short: Two friends had the initial idea for the brand over a Zoom call between Dehli (where Angela managed a clothing factory) and New York City. When the two of them reunited for the holidays they started to develop their vision of a sustainable fashion brand perfect for the everyday life of women around the world.
Mission: To create a fashion brand that is sustainable, easy-to-wear and attainable at the same time.
