New 7 for All Mankind Roll-up Shorts & Men’s Austyn Relaxed Straight Leg!
0 comments Posted by Dono at 11:25 AM7 for All Mankind Roll-up Shorts sit comfortably on the hips and features a rolled up hem. The Hazine wash combines a muted, medium blue wash with a slight yellow tint to create a greenish, iridescent appearance. With great recovery and a super soft feel, Hazine is featured on a sturdy 11 oz. Italian stretch fabric. Whiskers and hand sanding reveal a tinted weft and create beautiful highs and lows. Subtle navy thread color keeps the attention on the beauty of the wash. Copper hardware and metallic label contrast beautifully against the blue wash.

We love this easy little sun dress by Scrapbook! Normally we wouldn’t head for stripes, but the lightness of the jersey drapes the stripes so that they flow with your curves instead of running straight across them in an unflattering way. On the bust and the pockets, the stripes are arranged in a chevron diagonal pattern that breaks up the horizontal stripes at your hips and draws your eye to the waistline. The floral embellishment at the top just adds a sweet springy detail we can’t resist!

A perennial best-seller from French Connection, this heather grey jersey dress has a universally flattering faux-wrap deep v in front and a self-belting tie in back. Pair it with a pair of our Oh Sailor or Blast flats by Seychelles for lunch and a pair of our Dolce Vita Manny pumps (shown) at night. This lightweight viscose jersey is the perfect weight for layering a jacket or light cardigan during those cool evenings.

We feel so prim and proper in this one-shouldered day dress by French Connection. Whether its the smart contrast of the blue of the dress and the white of the belt buckle, the belt itself or the one-shoulder collar, we can't get enough of this dress. It also has pockets for those of us who can't leave anything behind!

We can’t decide which is our favorite but these bright orange suede sandals are at the top of the list. One of our top colors for Spring, orange is definitely a must-have this season and always shows off and enhances a tan!
Gypsy - $95.00

Platforms and wedges are the shoe of the season (as long as you don’t count out strappy flats too) and Seychelles does not disappoint with Hullabaloo, a strappy jeweled wedge with faux-wood heel.

Love the style but not the heel? Check out Blast below!
Cute, strappy and in bright coral or black and at only $50, Oh Sailor is not going to last long! Pair these flats with a pair of cropped or cuffed/rolled skinnies or a full skirt or dress and you’re off! All Seychelles and BC shoes have a great padded insole that makes long strolls around downtown a breeze.
Oh Sailor - $50.00

No surprise here, we love them. Not just love them, we LOVE them. Nude is one of our favorite trends for spring and these shoes take full advantage of nude leather and contrast it with a bright turquoise suede in a strappy geometric design. These structured, but airy sandals are definitely a statement we’re going to be making loud and clear this Spring!!
Surprise Ending - $95.00
Sizes 6.5-10 available
Love these nude peeptoe pumps with the subtle metallic cage design on them! Shimmering in the sunlight and perfect to pair with any color, this sexy silhouette will top off every outfit.

Hullabaloo’s little sister, Blast is a perfect compliment to any outfit and great for women of all ages! Black leather straps and a gold/bronze metallic trim & sole make them perfect with any color and dressy enough for a dress but subtle enough for everyday wear.
Blast - $80.00

About Threads For Thought
Threads for Thought is about and for a generation of young committed individuals, like Leigh and Eric, striving to improve the human condition and the preservation of the planet.
Threads for Thought was founded in 2005 by Eric Fleet and Leigh Ivan while they were still in college. They were both concerned about the many issues that were (and are) challenging our society; from the destruction of the rainforests in Brazil, to carbon emissions by coal fired plants in China, to the genocide in Darfur, to the war in Iraq, to the continued threat of terrorism, to obesity in young children and a vast multitude of other problems. They decided that they needed to find a vehicle to engage their friends, their generation and people across the country and world. With that in mind, Eric and Leigh decided that they would start a clothing brand, but with a twist....the brand and clothing would carry messages to inspire change and a call to action...the brand would donate a generous portion of their proceeds to charities and the company would be committed to sustainability both in their products & their practices.
The messages could be as overt as graphics that advocate for a cause or as subtle as a perfect basic tee made from organic cotton blended with polyester that was made by recycling plastic water bottles.
The objective: to design and manufacture the most fashionable clothing that was affordable to all while using sustainable materials and made in factories that respected their employees with fair wages, fair working hours and working conditions. By committing to these goals, Threads for Thought has become a brand both synonymous with sustainability as well as thought.
