THINGS WE LIKE
By Kate Mulling
The weather is perfect for rocking the ultimate flirty skirt. Whether you go for a graphic print, something floral, or an ultra-suede, we’ve got you covered—at least to the knee! After picking up one of these must-have pieces from some of L.A.’s hottest boutiques, all you’ll need to complete the look is a lightweight blouse and some wedges (flatforms will also do the trick), and—voila! You’ll be the object of outfit-envy all spring!

For those of you who are not familiar with this London based designer, Here is a quick and easy guide.
We were first introduced to Peter Jensen during his New York Fashion Week showcase and have been hooked ever since. Peter Jensen is signature for his whimsical, eccentric designs and he is not afraid to use bold color to enhance his minimalist aesthetic (see colorblock leather satchels below).
From Spring/Summer 2011
Upper: Blue Front Angela Bag featured with hand-dyed Upsate scarf
Below: Red Front Angela Bag featured alongside TenOverSix Kat Pump in Lipstick Red
There is equally one part modern and one part fairytale fantasy that is consistent in this update of the Angela Bag. I couldn’t help but think of a little train set I used to play with or the color story of Alice in Wonderland (somehow this reference is always sneaking its way into our shop, and it’s also possible that a soy latte appears every time I use it).
Now for fall 2011, the designer is moving in another direction. With a beautiful look book shot by famed photographer Autumn de Wilde and stylist Shirley Kurata, we are taken on a journey with a backpack full of neutral tones, neon accents, and a a copy of Jean-Luc Godard’s, “Une Femme est Une Femme.”
The muse for this new collection is undoubtedly Danish actress, Anna Karina (below).
With the beatnik inspiration of Anna Karina’s character and the backdrop of Los Angeles, Peter Jensen’s fall collection weaves both romance and feminine and paints them on a masculine canvas composed of tweed, corduroy, and printed crepe de chine.

We have been a fan of Mexican Summer records for sometime now. The NY-based label has put out a couple great releases this year including Real Estate, Washed Out, and LA duo Best Coast, along with the much anticipated reissue of Ramases’ Space Hymns, just to name a few.
