What is better pre Christmas than a post Christmas sale? Not much. The only word you needed to catch in that sentence was sale. Stable, Filly and Mare and Le Hoof now all have a sale selection for you (and us!).
Gifts of the week
December 16, 2011
With Christmas around the corner (holy moly!), we decided to tantalise you with an item from each store that would make
an ideal gift (most likely for yourself…!). Enjoy.
We are already consuming enough calories over this period (hand is currently reaching into the Christmas chocolate stash. Mouth. Done. Another?). So, we thought what could be better than a calorie-free hamburger that you can wear? Not much! These hamburger packs of three Green Pony Basic singlets -$159- make an ideal stocking stuffer.
Ahem. Did anyone use to watch AHHHH… Real Monsters!? If so, you will be seeing this Jerome Dreyfuss Billy bag as a creature and a friend. This is all relative, because once you hold Billy in your arms you won’t put him down. For real. Leopard pony hair and leather. Merry Christmas to you!
+++ Note: There is only one of him. Be quick.
Just like The Man Repeller, we love and arm party at Filly and Mare. This arm is featuring Misuzi very heavily (of course!) along with some Jewels Rocks and silk Paris bracelets. Misuzi is the ultimate gift to a BFF.
Misuzi LOVES Mexicali
December 15, 2011
Sushi and soy sauce. Mashed potato and gravy. Madonna and Guy Ritchie. Some things just go well together (ok, so Madonna and Guy not so much, but you get the point). This is where we introduce you to Misuzi X Mexicali. The two hooked up and the outcome is definitely better than Madonna and Guy! The bright coloured silks with both gold and silver hammered -$89- and round -$79- bracelets stack up together for a raging arm party. Available at Stable and Filly and Mare.
Also, check out Misuzi HERE!
Did You Know?
December 15, 2011
Don’t live in Melbourne? Have you spotted something you love on the blog and need it ASAP?! Of course you have! In that just just call the corresponding store and we will be more than happy to post your goodies to you (who doesn’t love receiving something snail-mail style?).
Look Of The Week @ Filly and Mare
December 9, 2011
We have some exciting news! Just in time for Christmas, these Queen L silk skirts are now $89. We LOVE that. Also, teamed with the skirt is a Green Pony basic cotton tank -$59- (or buy three different colours in a pack for $150). Filly and Mare would also like to thank Le Hoof for the use of these Osklen ankle boots (you might never see them again Le Hoof!).
Stay tuned for more Christmas gift ideas in both Stable and FIlly and Mare next week.
Look Of The Week @ Stable
December 9, 2011
Tis the season of excess… So, in celebration we thought we would give you TWO looks from Stable to get you inspired.
Firstly, one of our favorite pieces we have ever seen – this Tibi leopard dress -$659-. Just the right amount of leopard and the perfect structured cut. Teamed with the shoe of the century by Bruno Bordese (thanks Le Hoof). Who doesn’t want to wear THAT to a Christmas party?
Next up is this sleek and sexy Osklen dress -$460- which is so flattering and easy to have in the wardrobe (you will get so many wears out of it all year round). It’s also the go-to dress for a Christmas lunch – eat as much as you like and not be restricted. Oh and most importantly STILL look banging. On the hooves are B Store shoes (thanks again to Le Hoof).
Thieving
December 8, 2011
It’s only appropriate to thieve something when you’re talking about the label Honor Among Thieves. So, thanks to the summer 11/12 post on HAT’s blog (here), we were able to steal some cute photos of the latest campaign. We are still the only stockists outside their City store, and here are some images of what we have in Stable (minus the hot boy).
Dress: $239
Denim Shirt: $189
Jeans: $245
Cardi: $179
Leather Skirt: $280
Look Of The Week @ Stable
December 2, 2011
It’s official – Christmas Party Season is HERE! The perfect dress for your next event is this Honor Among Thieves silk number -$239- . Extremely sexy in a tasteful way. We dig that combo! On the hooves is the Rolls Royce of the shoe world – Bruno Bordese (see below for the 411 on them).
Look Of The Week @ Filly and Mare
December 2, 2011
What am I going to wear to that weekend BBQ you ask? We have the answer at Filly and Mare! Starting with this Something Else tank -$79.95, which is the perfect colour to match with these blue Mavi jeans -$129-. And no, your eyes aren’t lying to you, those are the Patricia Blanchet ankle boots -$399- you love!
Bruno Bordese – Exclusive To Le Hoof
December 1, 2011
Bruno Bordese. This is one name that most fashion insiders will happily have on their tongues. And feet. Bruno Bordese has honed the craft of shoemaking for over 20 years, and if his latest collection to hit Le Hoof isn’t the closest thing to foot heaven, we would like to see what is. Working with houses like Vivienne Westwood, Yohji Yamamoto and Roberto Cavalli (to name a few) has forced Bruno Bordese to continually focus on the finer points and the craft of shoemaking (which often gets forgotten in this high-turnover fashion world). Hand-made in Italy, using natural fabrics (proven to last the longest and mould to the foot) like the wooden bottom and heel, washed leather softer than butter, and light-as-a-feather canvas. We welcome these beautiful shoes to Le Hoof with open arms (and a frothing mouth).
