One of my New Year’s resolutions was to join a gym.  On my first day in there, I was corralled into a hula hoop dance class, which was amazing!

Winter crazy outfit…

Winter in Philadelphia is bitter.  And, since I love to walk to work (it’s a 5 minute walk to the studio), and I must walk Joe our dog, venturing outside is a must.  So, I’m on the hunt for a long down coat.  It’s actually hard to find a full length down coat for some reason (Brooklyn Industries used to make one that was really ugly, but looked warm, but I haven’t found it anywhere on the web).  So, it seems as though Bluefly has a decent selection of down coats.

And, long leather gloves are another must-have.  These will keep out the draft in the wrist-cuff region, and they are cashmere lined which is a major plus.

And, a trapper hat.  There is a really odd website, furhatworld.com, which has an amazing range of trapper style hats.

Jeffrey Cambell…

I picked up a cute pair of these Jeffrey Cambell ‘Office’ shoes at Vagabond yesterday.  Mine are black, but they don’t seem to be on the web yet, so you’ll just have to use your imagination (or go to Vagabond).

In the market for a new bike…

At some point in the last couple days, my bike was stolen.  It was a lovely old red bicycle with great baskets on the back, ideal for carying anything one could imagine.  So, I’m on the hunt for a new bike.  I’ve been lusting after the Amsterdam Original.

Along come belts…

Belts are becoming ever so important now that we are back to showing our waistbands again.  I love the delicate beading on this Rachel Comey belt, available at Creatures of Comfort or locally at Vagabond Boutique.

Back in action…

Thursday, June 5th, 2008

Our apologies for not being around much lately. I’ve been swamped with life and work and Louise is off in NY working at TEEN VOGUE, so we haven’t had much time to write. But, I’ll be getting back into the swing of things shortly.

I’m a huge Kris Chau fan, and for those of you in the Philly area she is having a solo show at Vagabond boutique. The show is entitled “you folks”, all new paintings and new drawings for you and me. The opening is February 8th from 6pm-10pm, and the show will be up until March 2nd. See you there!

Busy,busy,busy…

Sunday, November 4th, 2007

So I haven’t been posting much lately, and it’s because Leo and I have been insanely busy. Over the last couple weeks, we’ve adopted a darling geriatric dachshund- chihuahua, bought a house, and both of our cars were totaled by a drunk driver. So, basically things have been crazy in both in good and bad ways. So, we are going to have a guest blogger here at Seamsters, Louise. I am going to be focusing my energies on working on my home renovations and will be posting the process and progress at amyandleo.com. I’ll also post some highlights here at Seamsters.

Street style…Miss Zoe

Thursday, June 14th, 2007

Yesterday I ran into Zoe (one of the original founders of Seamsters). Zoe always has the best outfits, and here is a shining example. I love that she’s glamorous enough to be traipsing around on a Wednesday in an Olga Kapustina silk chiffon dress. But most importantly she’s wearing gladiator sandals. I’ve been meaning to post about them for a while now, but I was waiting to see a real person actually pulling it off, and well here it is.
