Thanks to Estelle (great blog and she’s a jewelry designer too!) from One Perfect Morning for this stellar find. Many of you are probably familiar with Anna Sara Davik’s nail rings and gloves, since they’ve popped up quite a few times on various style related blogs. I know that’s how I was familiar with her, but it wasn’t until Estelle’s recent post that I discovered that she also creates stunningly beautiful, architectural clothing. The colours are neutral and the overall aesthetic minimal, but the shapes are so beautifully constructed that it’s impossible to be bored by the clothing. Her older collections play with layering and unusual cuts, and feel just as fresh four years later. There don’t appear to be any stockists for the clothing yet, but the designer plans to open a web shop sometime this year, and hopefully some expanded press will find her clothing carried in more shops as well. For now, enjoy the clothing posted on her site
Sorry about being MIA for a couple of days. I’ve been working in the field and have had no time to update. I’m back for the remainder of this week, however.
Everyone has heard of Cheap Monday by now, but I’m willing to bet not everyone is aware that Cheap Monday falls under the parent brand, Weekday, as do labels Weekday MTWTFSS, Weekday Extended, and Sunday Sun.
All of the pieces for each of the labels have a simple, clean look and remind me in some ways of the APC aesthetic. I don’t think Weekday MTWTFSS, Weekday Extended, or Sunday Sun are available in North America, but I could be wrong. I’m hoping some retailers here in the states will start carrying them soon!
Swedish label, Nakkna is all about draping, and yes neutrals. (You should all know by now that I’m always on the hunt for clothes that will fit in nicely with my current wardrobe but possess details that make them interesting!) Anyways, I can’t access the archives on their site so I think it’s a nonfunctioning link, but I’ve posted pieces from the S/S 09 and A/W 09 collections and they do have a webshop, although I’m unsure of their international shipping policy. Actually, you can access some older collections through the webshop!
Swedish shop, Mint & Vintage, specialize in carrying lesser known, predominantly Swedish and European designers, along with hand-picked vintage pieces.
They ship all over the world so if something strikes your fancy you can order it. If I find time later, I’ll do the conversion and post the prices in dollars.
