Fall 2012 Buying Trip

Day 3 Recap
" />
" />

Day 3 was our much anticipated “denim day” at Coterie!  The majority of our day was booked full of denim appointments at all of our favorite lines.  We knew it would be a lot to take in, but couldn’t wait to see what the denim industry has in store for fall.

Joe’s Jeans

Our appointment at Joe’s Jeans started with their ready-to-wear collection, which consisted of covetable tops, darling dresses and novelty jackets.  They capitalized on the mini-dot trend with adorable flannel button-ups - something you’ll be seeing in our stores come September!  Their denim was a sure thing as well; we ordered plenty of our customer’s favorite denim staples... and threw in a red skinny jean too! 

AG

AG’s booth is always very recognizable at the show.  Their walls are made of huge wood panels, they have doll-size displays on their walls of all their denim styles (so cute!), and they even have an AG bar at the front of their booth.  It’s slightly over the top, but if anyone can get away with it, it’s AG! 

The mini-dot trend was seen here as well - both in a sheer top and on their jeans!  I can’t get enough of this trend; it’s cute, wearable and women of all ages can get away with wearing it.  In addition to the dots, AG had some note-worthy denim washes and a large selection of colored corduroys for fall - a wardrobe staple here in New England!  

Obsession of the Week

Frye Coral Ankle Strap

We've all attempted to walk the cobblestone streets of the Old Port in heels at some point or another - and it's anything but easy (or graceful!).  Thankfully, Frye came through for us yet again with their new take on the ever popular kitten heel!  (Go ahead, it's okay to let out a sigh of relief!)

The "Coral Ankle Strap" shoe is functional, comfortable (soft, leather-lined interior) and charming!  It's 2 inch wooden heel, along with it's sleek, polished black leather, adjustable ankle strap and peep-toe, makes this an ideal shoe for women who are always on the go.  Plus, it's made by Frye so you can be confident that it will withstand the harsh outdoor elements that we're subject to here in New England.  (And if the Frye name isn't enough, they offer a two-year warranty against any defects for all their products.)  If you ask me, it's everything you could ever want in a shoe!

No more avoiding Milk Street and Fore Street while you're out on the town... just slip these on and go!  Your feet will love you for it too.

Fall in Love with Frye

The Jackie Button Boot

Valentine’s Day is just two short weeks away.  Let’s be honest, there’s always pressure when it comes to buying that special gift for your loved ones.  This year can be different... easy... painless... and most importantly, it can be something she’ll want to wear every day (the perfect reminder of your love!).  Yes, I may be specifically talking to the men here, but keep an open mind ladies.  Your mom, sister, daughter or best friend would adore these just as much as you! 

I’ll cut to the chase - the Jackie Button boot is here!  It’s a classic knee-high boot with the same features as our best-selling Melissa Button boot - only with a 2.5 inch stacked heel!  Available in marbled cognac, deep chocolate and creamy black leathers, the Jackie Button boot is a sure-thing this Valentine’s Day.  Make chocolates, flowers and teddy bears a thing of the past.  She’ll be thrilled about the boots and the extra thought you’ve put into her gift this year (this can be our little secret!).

Timeless, beautiful and long-lasting - nothing says love like a Frye boot!

New Arrivals!

" />

It's always exciting when new shipments come in - and lately we've been getting something almost every day!  Since not everyone is willing to brave the arctic temperatures to shop, I'll give you a little preview of the awesome boots, clothes & accessories that are new to our sales floors.  They're fun, fresh and even bright - a sure way to beat those winter (and post-holiday) blues!

Harness Boot

In a cracked, distressed leather, the Wyatt Harness is our newest arrival from Frye.  Picture them paired with black skinnines and a chunky wool sweater... or a feminine frock for a hard/soft combo.  Whether you're looking for a shorter ankle boot or a mid-calf style, we have both options for you to incorporate into your winter wardrobe.  The best part - these will transition easily into spring too!

Mother May I?

Rules are often broken in the popular children's game Mother May I.  "Yes, you may take 3 giant steps forward"  usually means run forward as fast as you can.  Similarly Mother denim breaks a lot of rules (but in all the right ways!) that has put them leaps and bounds ahead in the denim scene.  With impressive washes & creative names like "Honkeytonk Cinderella" and "Maiden & the Unicorn," Mother denim makes you want to be a kid again.  3 new washes & cuts came in this week - one crop, one skinny and one slim boot.  With this many choices, it's hard to pick just one.

Leather Love

Recently, our stores seem to be over-flowing with belts - and that's definitely not a bad thing!  We just received a huge shipment from Motif 56 full of skinny braided belts and wide leather belts.  Wrap them around an oversized sweater to show off your waist or wear one to give your look a subtle update.  Either way, you can't go wrong with a Motif 56 belt.

The First Sign of Spring

CP Shades is a brand we all know and love.  Their American-made clothing is easy-to-wear, and though we sell the brand year-round, their early spring arrivals always have a way of brightening up our stores.  Crisp, white linen blouses, striped tunics, airy dresses and gorgeous mid-length pleated skirts are here... and we couldn't be more happy about it.  Wear them now or wear them later - these iconic CP Shades pieces make getting dressed every morning fun (and easy!).  

Hues from the Heart

Bright blues and vibrant reds were the theme in our recent Only Hearts shipment.  Six new styles of dresses are on our racks - a striped bateau dress (love the long-sleeves!), a tank dress with a cut-out back detail, a simple short-sleeve dress (great for the office!) and even a few printed dresses.  If you're looking to add a little cheer to your closet, these dresses are a great place to start.  After all, when it comes to Only Hearts, it's okay to wear your heart on your sleeve. 

I hope you've enjoyed this quick glimpse of what's new on our shelves.  And trust us, this is just the beginning.  If you ask me, it's a pretty fabulous start to a much-anticipated spring!
