As anticipated, our Ketzali shipment arrived last week and is now up on the site. These scarves are so awesome – super saturated colour ready to transition right into spring and summer. Guys, I love, love, LOVE these scarves.
We also restocked the Xajoj Scarf in Geranium if you’re leaning more toward something with a softer, pastel colour palette

Given how immensely popular the Yue items were, we went ahead and submitted a re-order for the Pocket Backpack and a new order for the Fang Backpack. We’re allowing people to pre-order since we don’t anticipate receiving the backpacks until the end of February or the beginning of March. Our re-order is small so if you missed them the first time make sure you don’t miss out this time. (Note: the cost to produce the backpacks has risen since our initial order last year) Once you place the pre-order, the backpack will be reserved for you and shipped to you as soon as it arrives.

Our Ketzali scarves also proved very popular so we placed another order. We’ll be getting a few more of the Xajoj Stripes Scarf in, plus four brand new scarves (sneak peek above). We expect to get them in sometime this week so be looking for them next Monday. Have a great week everyone!

This week we introduce a brand new label Ketzali, a Guatemalan based accessories company that uses 36 artisans to weave some truly beautiful scarves. Everything is done by hand including the dying, for which they use natural and low impact dyes. They’re perfect all-season scarves too since they’re woven from rayon viscose. This also makes them crazy soft. We have five different styles, although we sold out of the Wikiq style just this morning, so be sure to check them out.

And finally all A/W A’N'D, ANNTIAN, and ffiXXed is on sale

Scarves are one of those pieces of clothing that I seem to accumulate at a ridiculous pace. I’m one of those people who is constantly cold so scarves are pretty essential. Given our cold weather of late I’ve had scarves on the brain. If you ever happen to check out our Featured page on the Shop, you may have noticed that it changes every week and for the past two weeks I’ve rotated a few of the scarves we have on it. Brannan has the Hemingway and wears it daily, and I can attest to the softness and warmth of the Upstate scarves (flannel!). Anyway, the point of all this blah, blah, blah is to say – check out our scarf selection guys!

In other shop news, while we’ve sold out of quite a few of everyone’s favourites (all Kora pieces are officially sold now), we still have A LOT of good things left. I’m not planning on putting any new arrivals up until after the holidays (anyone else having information overload?) but we had a much bigger influx of A/W inventory this season, so you may have missed some things. I will be adding back a few past season pieces that are on sale next week. Have a great week everyone!

If you’re like us, you always have a need for wearable, versatile pieces – except they can’t be boring. This week we welcome two new designers who have found the key to this balance. Miss Alice is an Israeli label by Alice Dahan that never fails to nail the perfect slouchy drop crotch trouser, and perfect feather light cotton knit tee, shape changing bag, and well you get the idea!

Symmetry Goods by husband and wife team Ted Byrnes and Gena Tuso (two AMAZINGLY talented people who are super nice to boot) ably demonstrate that scarves can be not only immensely cool but they can do more than just wrap around your neck a couple times. We currently carry two styles (see the Hemingway above), but Symmetry made a Special Edition Lytton Scarf just for little ol’ Pour Porter. They let me pick out the plaid fabric! Definitely very excited about these two new labels – be sure to click over to scope the goods
