New This Week: Beachy Blues
We're so excited to launch our Out of Office Collection tomorrow! With 13 new arrivals, all white or blue, this collection is your invitation to take some OOO time, get some sunshine, and enjoy slow summer days.
Dianthus Henley Puff Sleeve Blouse - Drift into effortless romance with this whisper-light blouse, where airy puff sleeves meet a sweet ruffle-trimmed neckline. Crafted from soft, breathable cotton, the classic henley placket adds a hint of laid-back charm, while subtle shirring at the shoulders creates the perfect billowy silhouette. Available in crisp White or a playful Blue Bandana print, it’s the kind of top you’ll slip into on sun-kissed mornings and breezy afternoons—ideal for pairing with your favorite denim or tucking into a high-waisted skirt for an off-duty yet endlessly feminine look.
Isla Smocked Waist Dress - Celebrate warm-weather whimsy in a dress that feels like a daydream. The Isla features a stretchy, smocked waistband that gently cinches your waist before unfurling into a double-tiered skirt that sways with every step. Delicate flutter sleeves and a tassel-tie neckline lend a boho-chic flourish, while lightweight cotton-blend fabric keeps you cool from brunch to golden-hour picnics. With its easy, breezy drape and just-right amount of flair, this dress is your new go-to for garden parties, seaside strolls, or whenever you’re in the mood for a little sunshine-sprinkled magic.
Chloe Boho Ruffle Detail Dress - Invite free-spirited elegance into your wardrobe with the Chloe blouse. Crafted from feather-soft voile, it features a flirty ruffle neckline that frames the face and a button-front henley placket for easy wear. Long, gently gathered sleeves billow at the wrists, adding a hint of vintage romance to every look. Whether you’re layering it under a denim jacket for weekend wandering or pairing it with tailored trousers for a creative-office vibe, its timeless bohemian flair and luxe drape make it a piece you’ll cherish season after season.
We can't wait to see how you style these pieces and incorporate them into your summer style!
