Before we get too cozy, let’s make sure you are in the right place. You need to know that I’m a bit particular about my clothes. My shoes. My bags. Pretty much everything. It’s not that I’m a perfectionist; I just like really nice things that fit well and feel great. I like soft supple European leather; I love cashmere. I simply adore the little DVF sun dress I’m wearing, at present. But then really, who wouldn’t?
If we are going to talk fashion, we should set some ground rules. Because I take fashion really seriously. This blog will be a place where I’ll share the latest trends, styles and designs from the Knit Wit’s three stores (Philadelphia + Bryn Mawr, Pa.; Margate, NJ) and its sister store, Plage Tahiti, located in Center City Philadelphia. Knit Wit and Plage Tahiti are my go-to for everything I need for every day, for every occasion. When someone asks me where I bought my fabulous Haute Hippie cardigan, my stunning DVF cocktail dress or my sparkly Alexis Bittar earrings, I never have to hesitate to respond. Everything I wear is from Knit Wit and Plage. Right down to my Hanky Pankys. Katie knows where to shop.
Here’s an important question: did you switch your closet, winter to summer? The heat can’t sneak up on you anymore; it’s time to retire the heavy fabrics and lighten up! Pull out your springtime favorites and take stock of what you’ll need to add. Like, white jeans. When you are sporting that spring sunshine glow, it’s the perfect time to whip out those white skinny jeans with a bright, fun Michael Starrs tank. You’ll look and feel great. Do you have your Summer 2011 bikinis? They will only be at Plage for a few more days and then you can shop their designer swimsuits at the Knit Wit Margate. This is important: have you purchased your spring wedge, yet? (I hope they were in neutrals with a pop of metallic.) Because that wedge is going to look so hot with a super long, summer dress – reminiscent of flower power in sleek, sexy modern styles. You need to know: women of any height can wear long dresses and skirts. Which are SO in right now! Come by the store and they will put you in an A.L.C. number that will blow you away!
If you’ve got a copy of WWD in your bag, and your bag was handmade in Italy, then we are friends. If you seek information and insights on the world of fashion and Philadelphia’s fierce fashion scene, you’re in the right place.
Kisses,
Katie
