Paul Smith Fall 2012 RTW Favs

Wednesday, February 22nd, 2012

Sir Paul Smith just showed his fall 2012 RTW and Katie knows some of his menswear-inspired looks are meant to be staples in your closet this autumn.

Sleek, skinny pants paired with tailored little jackets or double breasted overcoats; plaid paired with plaid; a healthy dose of velvet and some killer dresses! Here are my favorites from the Paul Smith new collection:

A classic fall ensemble with the unmistakable Paul Smith twist.

The un-lady suit. To die for.

An incredible little black wrap dress with pocket square!

We’ve seen a bit of this mustard color – so retro and rich – throughout the recent NYFW shows.

And this gorgeous blue! Can’t go wrong with the perfect sweater+skirt combo.

Plaid on plaid. Love the neck of the sweater and the different hues.

Ann Gitter always says, a tight turtleneck can be so sexy. Here’s the proof!

Loving this striped maxi with belt.

The Knit Wit has the best Paul Smith selection around and just got a huge shipment of brand new pieces including these (not just for men) new cuff links:

Check out the new arrivals online or in-store!

Kisses,
Katie

A.L.C. Fall 2012 RTW Fav Looks

Wednesday, February 22nd, 2012

Katie knows the Knit Wit’s Ann Gitter can always spot a fabulous designer. The incredible line A.L.C. by Andrea Lieberman has been carried at my favorite boutique since it was born in 2008.

It’s always fresh and interesting while still classic and chic. I was thrilled when I saw pics of the new designs! Here are some of my favorite looks from A.L.C.‘s fall 2012 RTW collection shown at NYFW:

This mustardy color is featured throughout the collection, paired with black, grays and patterns.

Obsessed with these leather legging pants in both burgundy and black. And this coat, OMG!

Sweet sweaters with a modern Fair Isle paired with short skirts.

So Mad Men! I love the short sleeves.

The sexy version of the ensemble directly above. This may be too hot for the office!

The colors of this maxi dress are subdued yet striking. Pair it with a chunky cardigan for a perfect autumn look.

I am going to seriously need this coat!

I just picked up the most chic black jumpsuit by A.L.C. at Plage Tahiti – for 80% off! And, the Knit Wit has a huge A.L.C. selection to hold you over until these fabulous fall pieces arrive.

Kisses,
Katie

Reflections on the DVF Fall Line

Thursday, August 11th, 2011

The KNIT WIT has been blessed with racks and racks of the new fall line from Diane von Furstenberg. If you are like me, you’ve been looking, longingly, at the pieces you picked up last week in Center City and Bryn Mawr, waiting for the autumn temperatures to allow for wearing them. If you were silly enough to miss the trunk show in Pennsylvania, not to worry! It’s at the KNIT WIT in Margate, NJ through Sunday, August 14th!

Ms. von Furstenberg has given us some new and classic dress styles to rock in the coming months. There’s a lot of bright blues and greens paired with muted retro colors like cranberry, gold and chocolate. And the patterned dresses are obvious DVF with a new flair. She’s offering some killer pants, skirts and tops but Katie knows every woman needs a selection of DVF dresses in her closet.

Here’s a sampling of what you need for fall:
