Katie <3 Elizabeth and James

Monday, November 28th, 2011

If you haven’t yet heard of Elizabeth and James, you definitely know the co-designers.  Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen were watched by children and adults alike on the TV sitcom, Full House, and years later entered into the world of designer fashion.  Elizabeth and James are the names of two of their siblings and the line has become a fav among celebrities and yours truly. 

Katie knows Knit Wit just got a ton of Elizabeth and James new arrivals!  Here’s a sampling:

 

 Elizabeth and James blouses with leather and jeweled embellishment. 

Elizabeth and James three-quarter sleeve sweater.

 I love the soft, feminine tops and chunky, warm sweaters.  Elizabeth and James also makes incredible sunglasses:

Stop into the Knit Wit today to try some new Elizabeth and James!

Pippa’s Perfect Style

Wednesday, July 6th, 2011

Pippa, Pippa, Pippa: we adore thee. Katie knows if you want to copy the fashions of the most famous sister-in-law in the world, you’ll need to follow some easy rules.
  1. Keep It Simple: solids over patterns
  2. Cover The Girls: no cleavage
  3. Stick to the Classics: styles that never die

 

If you like Pippa’s white dress, you’ll love Catherine Malandrino’s Sleeveless Crochet Dress in Blanc. It has a crochet overlay and an attached lightweight knit underlay slip.

 

London is a bit cooler than the Delaware Valley in the summer, so Pippa has been rocking some long sleeves and pants recently. I love how she plays with feminine, neutral tones.



To copy this look in warmer temps, try Brochu Walker’s Nude Silk Ruched Tank paired with Adriano Goldschmied’s The A.C.U. Patch Pocket Capri in Supply.

Katie knows you can’t go wrong in jeans, a bright top and a blazer. Pippa is classically chic here, but a boot-cut or slightly flared jean would have done this outfit better.


I recommend the J Brand Dark Vintage Love Story Bell Bottom Jean with Elizabeth and James’ Black Satin E-Roz Lace Up Bootie. 


Add a bright top and this amazing black blazer from 3.1 Phillip Lim and you’ll look Pippa-perfect.



Pippa has a knock-out body and this wrap dress is gorgeous on her. 


Katie knows you can copy this look with Diane von Furstenberg’s Deianira Long Sleeve Wrap Print Dress in Greek Blue.
