1. I <3 Mom

    If your mom is anything like mine, she turns on the water works when gifted thee perfect present. It has turned into a sort of shared goal in my family: To make her cry. And I’m talking bawl. Like, here are some Kleenex woman, because you love that shit so much. Navigating through Mother’s Day sales is impersonal and removed from the joy of giving something your number one lady is actually going to love. Here are a few of our favorites for our moms, and why.

    My mom certainly knows her Pinots from Merlots, and is happy anytime my family sits down together to a good bottle of red wine. She and my dad spent their honeymoon exploring Northern California afoot and tasting in Napa (before it was cool to drink wine.) I think she’d love nothing more than these hardwood coasters by Roost, paired with a bottle of her choice. My mom is as classy as they come, and truly selfless; she always gives away the last pour.

    The Something Else drippy floral shirt. My fondest memories of my childhood are with my mom in Hawaii. Hot summer days at the beach, her in sheer floral pieces and me in a tank top and diaper (no pants!). She gleams in bright colors and light weight fabrics. Here’s to hot moms!

    My mother is an absolute fiend for scarves; runs in the family. I think I inherited my obsession for soft fabrics from her and I know she would never be able to resist something like this Minimarket scarf. Talk about hitting the soft spot!

    I’d choose Anna Shefield’s Wheat Eternity band. She’s always been proud of her youthful hands (was once a hand model) and loves her rings! She’s a simple and classic lady. She’d brag to her friends throughout the years if I were to gift this ring to her.

  3. Because I can’t resist the relationship between literature and fashion.

     

  4. Love these modern portraits by master fashion photographer, Patrick Demarchelier for W Magazine.

    Rachel Comey is for every girl: With styles that range in height, texture, and taste. Whether you be a stiletto stomping downtown lady, or a culture infused chick of Temescal, we’ve got thee summer shoe you’ve been searching all spring for.

     

  6. Dive in to summer with swimwear from Lifetime Collective. Vintage-inspired print or vivid colorblocking? Both are equally hot ways to cool down when you get poolside.

    Every dog has her day.  Cinco de Mayo is rapidly approaching, and although we all like to celebrate with a toast of beers and margaritas….this heat is calling for a little ice!

  8. Only one day left to get ready for Cinco de Mayo and given the heat we’ve been dealing with, the only appropriate response would be to grab a great Gitman (including the Sayulita Blanket Stripe shirt), rolling up your sleeves, and toasting one—or two, or three—to the amazing contributations of Mexicans and Mexican-Americans, especially here in the Bay Area.

    Whether you celebrate with friends or are heading out to the massive party out in Dolores Park, we hope you have a good one!

     

  9. So, we totally forgot to mention that new To Be Announced shoes are arriving shortly. And by “forgot” we mean “didn’t tell you suckers so you wouldn’t be hounding us every week asking when they were coming in”.

    If you can’t wait, shop our current selection HERE.
