Pour Porter Shop: Introducing Lina Rennell & New Accessories by Dun

March 7th, 2011

The Shop is happy to announce the addition of a new designer to our roster, Lina Rennell. Rennell’s items are distinguished by not only their beautiful prints but their ethically sourced and produced fabrics. She hand makes most of her pieces in her California studio.

We’re also happy to announce brand new items from Jesse Bonny of Dun, who creates all of her jewelry by hand from items she’s grown, harvested, or re-purposed.

Visit the Shop to see!

Apologies for having no memory of where I found this label. I’ve had it bookmarked for awhile and didn’t make any note. Anyways, pretty things from Norwegian label, Fin whose clothing is stylish while being sustainable

Dun Market

February 23rd, 2010

Breastplate necklace – $60

I have my long time friend Toyin to thank for this find. Dun Market doesn’t have a huge selection, but what they do have is just ace. I’m particularly crazy for the handbag! They use repurposed, vintage materials to create most of their pieces, which all have an appealing, sensual feel. Several of their pieces use yucca cordage that they make by hand. Dun Market’s wares are the antithesis of fast fashion and I think there’s nothing better than a one-of-a-kind item with such a personal feel. I can truthfully say that I’d wear every item available in the shop! Remember to click the images to enlarge and visit the site to see more

Left – Seedsack top $40;   Middle – Collar $65;    Right – Handbag $50

Seeing as it’s going to be a little while longer until the official store launch, I thought I’d give you all a small taste of just one of the items you’ll see/be able to purchase on the shop. I’ve photo’d this incredibly unique, handmade necklace by some talented young designers (who I’ll post all about later) with my Latourell poncho so you can get a sense of its scale. Plenty of additional accessories and clothing coming too, but you’ll have to wait until launch to see that!
