SUNSHINE IN MY POCKET
Yellow couldn’t have entered our wardrobes at a better time. The magical hue is injecting just the right amount of optimism in the form of statement arm candies.

EARTHLY DELIGHTS
A label conceptualized by Laura Vassar and Christopher Brock, an uber talented husband and wife designer duo, the Brock Collection boasts an excellent style legacy, one whose signature looks are steeped in luxurious craftsmanship. The Spring Summer 2021 collection was, once again, not just illustrating the easy lived in aesthetic (peppered with Victorian inspired corsetry, tailored classics, and couture like presence), but also drove home the point of elegance for the new reality: our pandemic driven lifestyles.

Easy alternatives to comfortable loungewear for our new WFH existence manifested in cozy sweaters, voluminous sleeved dresses, botanical print day dresses, cotton denims, and romantic lacey separates. Almost all the headlining pieces feel primed for leisure, yet incredibly polished and just ripe for the new normal.
