Rag & Bone

Founded in 2002 by two men with no formal fashion training in Kentucky, Rag & Bone was born. The line originally began as a men's denim line, but women's fashion was launched in 2005 and took off! They believed that denim represented the history, authenticity and fundamentals of classic work wear that they would strive to reflect in their designs. 2007 marked the introduction of accessories for both men and women, adding a touch of style and distinction to their tailored look. Guided by a strong British tailoring influence, rag & bone produces classic yet modern sportswear for both men and women that is known for being understated and wearable. The brand prides itself of high quality fabric, classic construction and perfect fit with a handmade feel. 

Rag & Bone is most known for their jeans, but have expanded to so much more. Bomber jackets, tailored blouses and printed pants are all among the recent collections. Celebrities adore the brand as much as we do! You can find Anna Kendrick, Mila Kunis, and Khloe Kardashian all rocking the line and loving it! Come try on a pair today! We carry a variety of washes, colors and cuts! Fall is just around the corner and jeans are an absolute staple!

Love and Lace

Lace is so trendy right now and the ultimate way to add elegance to your style. This once antique fabric is now considered uber modern. Pile it on and mix it up girl!


If you want to start using lace in a more traditional way, go for a lace dress. This is a great option for a wedding. I personally am loving to look of navy lace. Consider it as black reinvented. Take a break from the LBD and go for the NBD. Stick to a solid pump or shoe to assure a delicate contrast.


Tailoring and lace make the perfect combo. Go glam in a well cut trouser trouser with a lace top or blazer. Choosing black automatically makes lace look sexy, BUT with the huge neon trend that is out there, don't be afraid of the citrus colors! A lace skirt is sexy and chic. This often makes for a more sophisticated and dressy look, so depending on your environment, this can be a great option as well!


Lace has even been added to your favorite accessories! Go with a pair of lacy pumps under your tailored suit or a great pair of jeans.This is going to add a sense of style to an otherwise boring getup. A lace clutch works well for evening and incorporates texture. 


No longer reserved for weddings, lace is showing up everywhere!

Good as Gold

Gold is one of the strongest trends on the runways for Fall. Though gold is a trend that can be worn all year long, there's no shortage of the glitter coming this Fall! Glitter equals glam and it's here to stay. Don't just consider gold as holidayware. There are many ways that you can work gold into your wardrobe for every day. 


A gold top can be paired with austere hues such as army green, khaki, or black and the shades become even more brilliant. For an office environment, go with a shimmery gold top under a navy cardigan with a khaki crop. For day out put a gold top or blouse with black leggings, skinny jeans or white pants. Your gold jewelry will transcend perfectly with your outfit. When in doubt, pair gold with black. 


If you have an event or party to attend, a sequined dress can make you look ultra posh. Wearing gold is show stopping and an easy alternative to the LBD. Go glam with the gold sequins. Pair this with a simple black pump and minimal jewelry. Pull your hair back in a sleek ponytail for a high fashion look. As long as you don't overuse gold, you are sure to look like a goddess!

Blazing Hot!

The blazer. It's not just considered men's work attire any longer! Introducing the boyfriend blazer. This updated version of the men's power suit is ultra chic and sleek! Among many reasons why this piece needs to find it's way into your closet, it will actually complement your shape! Since blazers cinch your waistline, you are elongating the frame. Not only is it slimming, but ultra versatile!

For a vintage inspired look, pair this with a cotton dress that is flowy and not super form fitting. This will create more of a casual appeal. Make sure the hem hits just above that of the dress. If the hem is the length of the dress or long, you are going to look sloppy and unpolished.

No doubt, the 80's has made a major comeback in the fashion world. Go with a boxy, double breasted blazer over leggings or skinny jeans. This look may sound like one for fall, but try a bright coral blazer over white skinnys for a summer chic look. The nice thing about the longer blazer is that you can hide any insecurities you may have with your thighs. (Which is most of us right?)

My ultimate favorite way to wear the blazer is cropped with a pair of tailored shorts. You can go with white shorts, printed top and solid blazer with a gold necklace. OR go printed shorts and tone it down a little with a white or navy blazer to offset your patterned shorts. Don't go overboard. At least one of your pieces needs to remain solid to avoid color or print overload! For a dressier look, finish off with a wedge. To flirt with your Bohemian side, go with strappy gladiator sandals!

Blaze a new fashion trail...
