& other stories

Early April trends and colors. 5th avenue location in Manhattan.

The market NYC boutiques

I wasn't allowed to take many photos inside this location. There are many high quality shops all being tended by their own prospective artists and families of the artists. A great place for hand made jewelry.

Louis Vuitton in Soho Manhattan

Using the logo as the closure on the boot.  The ski slope retro look missing athletic with casual.

Alice and Olivia display

Rainbow colors in embroidery and beads. Reminds me of Lulu Guinness.

Stella McCartney colors in April

Denim and cognac combined with stripes. Platform is on trend.

Kate Spade ♠

Aldo kills it with the patches!

I appreciate the different themes of nautical and Eastern. I also notice the continued use of embossed snake skin material. Wondering if it's intentional or left over from fall.

Maru Sikaku candles

These are so Kawaii. Remembering some of the cute things I saw the last time I was in Japan.

Bimba Y Lola

This is my new favorite brand, I discovered during my shopping trip to London. The colors, patterns and icons are forward but not juvenile.
