So when Erickson Beamon Fall delivery arrived the other day, we opened the box and immediately wanted to play dress up! There’s just something about each piece that is so amazingly vintage and one of a kind. All the stones are semi-precious, and the metals are sterling and 24kt. I can be wearing jeans and a t-shirt and add the cluster ring for a quick lunch on 3rd, or even a black cotton dress and the Glenda Cuff high on my arm and I’m ready for dinner at Pace. Most of these pieces have been made custom for us, and they have been seen in Vogue a number of times.
Mad Hatter Bracelet $482
City Slicker Ring $342
Kaleidoscope eye Bracelet $529
Mind Trip Bracelet $482
Glenda Cuff $482

This just in from Style.com!
We are so excited for Mischen’s Fall collection! Should be in store by August.
Check back soon to see pics of all the new pieces!!!
Like many a dedicated thrifter, designer Carla Knapp has occasionally succumbed to dreams of the ultimate score: a trunkful of mint-condition vintage just waiting to be mixed and matched into the modern girl’s casually classy wardrobe. A fantasy, sure, but Knapp has done her best to literalize it for the fall 2008 collection for her label, Mischen. “I was thinking, what if a girl inherited all her Parisian grandmother’s fabulous clothes,” explains Knapp of the collection’s mix of hoary coats, origami-inspired blouses and skirts, and femme-y frocks in prints riffing on antique wallpaper. Though the odd pair of trousers makes an appearance in the line, the two-year-old Mischen is a far cry from the stuff Knapp was making at her last gig, as creative director of Paper Denim & Cloth. Currently pulling together the pieces she’ll be showing for her first-ever fashion presentation in September, Knapp is clear on one thing: “No jeans. Not now, not ever.” Grandma would approve.

Can not wait for Whitley Kros to arrive! First bit of Fall should be in store by August.
Check out the review on the Resort collection from style.com.

Though it’s most commonly associated with rear windows and peeping toms, prurience got the sunny-side up treatment at the tea party launch of Whitley Kros’ Resort collection in Los Angeles on Tuesday. “For us, each season is like this little update from Whitley,” explained co-designer Marissa Ribisi at the poolside fête. “You see what she’s been doing, what she’s into, but the girl herself is always just out of sight. All you get are sidelong glimpses.” As Ribisi and her fellow designer Sophia Coloma went on to explain, Kros has followed up Fall’s tour of the European capitals by blanketing down on Bondi with a few Jane Austen novels—hence the Resort collection’s preponderance of beachy prints and Empire waists. “Maybe it comes from my acting background,” Ribisi notes, “but I really like to design from the point of view of a character. I think everyone has that urge to step into someone else’s life for a minute, though. We’re about to launch our Web site, and that’s the basic idea—a tour of Whitley’s world.” Spy and buy, in other words, and in the meantime, pass the scones.

So ever since we received this shipment in last week, I have not been able to take off my red cashmere tunic. I swear I have probably worn it 3 days in a row, first as a dress with a slip under, once as a sweater with shorts, and then as a dress again. I have this policy that as long as the same person doesn’t see me in the same outfit I’ll can stay in it for days. These new pieces are so versatile too, can easily go from day to night. This silk rose print dress is great for attending a wedding or even with flats during the day.

Hello All!!
Welcome to Feature website!! The launch of the site actually coincides with our 5 month anniversary! We opened in February of this year in the heart of Brentwood and it has been amazing! Our objective was to create an environment where people could find clothing from designers that were all over the magazines but never really accessible. We wanted to Feature a more fashion-forward aesthetic, clothing that is simple and classic and designers that are edgy and unique.
For Spring / Summer we had some amazing pieces from Wayne’s second season, Mint by Jodi Arnold, Mischen (ammaazzing!), and Lerario Beatriz. And Fall 2008 is going to be even better! We have added Lover, Vena Cava, Tsesay, Whitley Kros, and Paul and Joe to the list of designers we are carrying.
We live and breathe fashion, so check in to see the latest news on our favorite designers, new lines, stand-out pieces, and current obsessions.
