The Graduate

As we're moving (next week!) we are a little reluctant to put out all of our gorgeous new summer stock, but we thought we'd better indulge you all with some teaser pieces...

At the top is the lovely Graduation dress in buttercup seersucker, it's so beautiful on, the skirt is so full you don't need your crinoline with this little number! The Graduation dress design came about earlier this year when our good friend Liv had nothing to wear to (you guessed it) her graduation, so with two days to spare we whipped up a frock for her- this was out of a chiffon & of course she looked lovely.

The new breed of grad dresses is quite a different garment as the texture of the seersucker is really something special. We have rich chocolate brown grad dresses in the pipe lines too! (eeew that sounds gross! they are actually hiding out back until we move).

The seaside top & cafe skirt in navy are two of my favourites this season. As you know I'm all about nautical things right now & this is the perfect summer ensemble! The cafe is a great high waisted skirt with cute ties that can be worn around the front or tied in a bow at the back,
the cafe has been really popular so we thought we'd update the colours & this navy is classic.
The seaside top is made from a lovely smooth crisp cotton & works tucked in or loose.

A summer look book is on it's way, our official photographer (erm... me) has booked studio time for this Saturday & our stylist (erm... me again) went hunting for shoes & props yesterday, so wish me luck!

Saturday is also our last day of trading in Brooklyn :( Hopefully the shoot doesn't take all day, so I can spend some time in the shop on it's last day as a brooklynite. We'll miss Brooklyn! X
