FAB STUFF: LETAU DESIGN SCARVES

letau designsThe moment temperatures start to dip into 50 degree territory, you will never find me without a scarf around my neck. Regardless of what I’m wearing, my scarves and I become one up until spring makes it rounds again. Therefore, my fall/winter wardrobe must be stocked with cute and versatile scarf options.

Fab Chicks need options right? Well I have a pretty cool one to share with you all.

It comes from Maren Reese, wardrobe stylist to the likes of Kerry Washington, Dakota Fanning and for films like Avatar. She has used her fashion background to create her line, Letau Designs. The line primarily consists of drawstring and hooded scarves ranging in a variety of colors and fabrics.letau designsletau designsI have my eye on this herringbone tweed number.

"Unbridal" Fair @ Circle & Square




Circle & Square is having a invitational

In which we have challenged many accessories designers and artists

to submit their interpretations of what a modern day "Alice" or "Bride" would wear, carry or use at a Spring/Summer party.
We are “marching” in lockstep with the opening of the "Alice in Wonderland" movie.
.
The results are spectacular, whimsical and wearable whigmaleeries... if you will... of the highest order.
It's how you would look while "searching to find your true destiny".
The IDES of March is the inaugural kick off time for the "Un-bridal" Party Season Opener!
We will be showcasing the most inspired sources and imaginative pieces to complement any sort of playful mischief you're up to!!

That’s right!

"Curiouser and curiouser, eh?"

CAKE AND CHAMPAGNE TO AMUSE!!
