new arrivals: peter jensen, olanic, lala berlinTuesday, 11 March 2008 We have some of the prettiest, cutest new arrivals for you this week. Tops for brightening up a suit or a weekend, dresses for your winter escape or ambitious 'I don't care if the rain comes down horizontally'-days, and some accessories to earn you a few envious looks.First up is our new nina&lola-family member Peter Jensen. I could have bought the entire collection. Actually I did buy almost the entire collection. This is just the first half. Peter has a way of being sweet without being too girly, and being subversive with all things preppy. And the prices are very good. This week's arrivals feature tops (holiday print silk, gingham shirts in black or mauve and the cutest Bear Hug T), gorgeous patchwork knitwear and two darling dresses. The denim dress is heavy enough for some layering to wear right now.
Next up Olanic. Niki Taylor, the designer, is a bit rock n' roll than Peter with items like the superb jumpsuit, but mix in some sweet stripes and there's no need to be in a band to wear her pieces. And then there are finally some new scarves by Lala Berlin. The star print summer style come in creme, acqua or mauve. And also there are some new net bags by Volker Lang. The bags are cut from a single piece of leather and can be stored flat or rolled up and go in your other bag. And last but not least, a little new vintage...
So much for this week. Happy shopping!
