Build Your Slow Fashion Wardrobe

The warm weather is here…A return to normal socialization feels near…& now the question of what to wear brings fear!

In all seriousness, the pandemic did a number to most of us in terms of feeling comfortable and getting excited to get back into our wardrobes again.  

In our approach to design, we're in constant search of finding the balance of creating pieces that feel easy, effortless and elevated with the goal of making it easy for you to put together an outfit, add your ‘third piece’ and leave home feeling confident.  

While commonly associated with colder weather, knitwear has a tremendous amount of versatility when it comes to layering pieces that can work with your existing wardrobe. 

We’re breaking down our 5 Favorite Knits that will elevate your closet: 

The Sara - Duster Vest 

Vest are and will always be your wardrobe heroes!  With The Sara, we’ve taken the vest to new lengths, with this ‘duster’ version that hits just above the knee.  The silhouette lends itself to be an easy throw-on that can often feel more like outerwear and take the place and a jacket. 

Pair with denim & blouse, style over a maxi dress, throw over your leggings to give you a little extra coverage on days when you want to keep it low key, but look put together.

The Juliet - Cabled Pullover

A lightweight sweater that combines texture, beautifully hand-crafted details and a relaxed fit that combines comfy and cool.  

Sweaters are also staples that can act as both a primary or supplemental piece in your outfit.  There’s also the “let me grab a sweater’ step that you are so thankful you did once the sun goes down and cool breeze hits the air.  The Juliet is one that you will be forever grateful to have on hand. 

Anchor your outfit over a pair of trousers or denim, tuck into a flowy skirt or wrap around your shoulders to have on hand for dinner al fresco.

The Kacy Vest 

Now back to our love of vests, with the Kacy.  This version in our super soft merino acts as the “shell” your outfit needs to give you a slight layer of warmth protection, while giving you a “I put a lot of thought into this look”, look without really having to do so!

It’s boxy and cropped design allows for a more casual piece accented with a comfy cozy mock neck.  We love both a solid color or a  fun pop with our Zero Waste version.

With its cropped nature, we recommend pairing over a loose printed dress to pull it together or over a longer flowy blouse.

The Molly Vest 

The Molly combines a tailored silhouette with beautiful eyelet diamond details.  This piece can take a simple look and give it that extra “dressy” or “upgraded” feel of a sweater vest.  A piece that can go from the office to happy hours as you make you way back into the workplace.  

Easy enough to pair and dress up denim, or elevated enough to pair over trousers and a button down to head into the office.

Typically pairs best with denim, mom jeans, your favorite white “summer” pants and over a simple tank or cami.
