Yesterday, Maor Cohen of M.Cohen Designs was in-store, showcasing his eclectic accessory line. All of his pieces evoke a sense of peace and symbiosis with the earth and the wearer. Meant to be layered and stacked, they are truly one-of-a-kind in quality and style.

Maor brought what he estimated at “1/10th” of his entire inventory… Knowing that he makes every piece by hand and seeing thousands of pieces, we were blown away. Truly prolific!

With the purchase of one of Maor’s irresistible accessories, M made custom charm bracelets for each customer!!

I chose a red bracelet with a wishbone charm!

Maor and his Rep, Brad!!

This customer chose black with a skull charm! (so Badass!)
Be sure to stop in and see the exclusive designs we bought on the spot for our Azalea customers!! You’ll be tempted to buy more than one!

Any way you spell it, this sport is taking the U.S. by storm, and its about time. The rest of the world has left our statistics-obsessed Baseball fans in the dust and has been standing behind this fast paced sport for as long as I can remember.
Now that Soccer’s biggest competition, World Cup 2010, is right around the corner we can watch with mouths agape, overfilled pint glasses, and our favorite team colors waving to and fro as we jump up and down in rejoice at the first goal of the game. (Be it that you’re not rooting for USA)
What’s that you say? You don’t have any Red,White, and Blue clothing to wear to the Napper Tandy? No South African themed garb to wear to Bissap Baobab? No White and Red to cheer on the Brits at Mad Dog?

Just posting a nice article on Jules Kim, who came for our trunk show a few months ago!
“I’m not soft. [Guys] are not going to be able to approach me in [an easy] way. I distance myself with the way I dress and the way I am. It’s only a certain personality that would ever have the balls to approach me.” Jules Kim.

A.P.C.’s Hipster jean is truly unique. You could say that among the myriad of denim options, it stands alone.
A.P.C.’s Jean Touitou strives to bring simplicity and minimalism back into the wardrobes of the fashion conscious without putting them to sleep. Quality, attention to detail, and attitude exude from these pants from the minute you put them on.
With a 2cm lower rise than that of the New Standard/New Cure/Rescue family, one less button, always versatile 5th pocket, and a static $165.00 price tag, what is not to LOVE?




Here’s what to do.
1. Get your hands on a pair of Hipsters.
2. Use all your strength to put them on and secure the buttons.
3. Stand there and catch your breath.
4. Wear them to brunch. Wear them to the park. Wear them to the bar. Wear them on a date. Wear them to your Mom’s house.
5. Feel them soften with wear… Look at those FADES!
6. Thank me.

Clothing industry is full of passionate, creative, amazing people and their ideas. As customers, we get to enjoy the products, get to express ourselves and our style through the pieces they created. Like many things, sometimes I ponder on how do these ideas come to be realized. How is this jacket I am wearing constructed, produced, where is its origins? I always appreciate it when the people behind these creations care to educate us on such information.
“…To make historically correct garments it’s important to understand the machinery on which the originals are made. Some of this machinery is over 85 years old.” – From the Garbstore.
Garbstore is a men’s line launched in 2007 by Ian Paley from London, former founder and designer of One True Saxon, Senior Designer Paul Smith Jeans, Designer Thomas Burberry & Levis Strauss. His mission: Quality.
Garbstore website has a beautiful documentation feature on their factory in Guangdong, read this great article here. A lot of designers in quest of quality usually resist the idea of manufacturing in China, but Garbstore actually is deeply proud of it. ”Garbstore isn’t about making in a particular place or in a particular country, we manufacture in the best possible environment for the products we aspire to make.”
