Fall A.P.C. at Net-a-Porter

by grechen on July 29, 2008 | SUBSCRIBE | TWITTER | FACEBOOK |

I’m a huge fan of French label A.P.C. although I’ve only admired from afar. I love how “easy” and urban-chic all the designs are; the Fall 2009 line especially. You can buy online at A.P.C.’s website, and a few other places (Totokaelo has a FABULOUS selection), but soon, you’ll also be able to purchase A.P.C. at Net-a-Porter.

I love this because I love Net-a-Porter. Every order, no matter how small, comes packaged and wrapped so it feels like you’re opening a gift. Shipping is fast; they do sometimes have free shipping codes, and return shipping is FREE. Which is essential for me – especially if I decide to try a new line out for size. I really hate paying for shipping, but it’s even worse to have to pay return shipping. Really.

Net-a-Porter is also picking up some other great designers for Fall: Elizabeth & James, Bally, Sonia Rykiel, and Sigerson Morrison, but I’m most excited about A.P.C. Anyway,
check out the new designers for Fall at net-A-Porter.com and sign up to be notified of new arrivals.

Now back to A.P.C….the reason I love them:

Eco-Chic: Melissa Recycled Plastic Wedges?

July 23, 2008

You know how much I love my Recycled/Recylable Plastic Melissa Sin Sandals. I wear them constantly; I love the way they look as much as I love how comfortable they are. (I haven’t worn a pair of regular flip-flops since I got them.) Anyway, as much as I love them, I’m not sure I’m ready [...]

Tila March Handbags

July 23, 2008

No matter how many bags I have, I’m always thinking of my next. I know, it’s a sickness. And actually, I’m going to try and refrain from buying new bags for a while and love the ones I already have as part of a general movement towards “sitting still” and enjoying the ABUNDANCE that is [...]

The seaglass necklace by Jessica Lee is just the pop of color I need for my mostly black, grey, and white wardrobe. Jessica Lee handcrafts this necklace (and her other seaglass items like earrings and [...]

Jessica Elliot Jewelry

July 16, 2008

I first featured Jessica Elliot’s jewelry years ago when she and I both started our respective businesses. Jessica is the queen of “edgy femininity” and rocker-chic style jewelry, but I love her sweet “Use your Words” bracelets and necklaces more. Available in sterling silver and gold vermeil at Max & Chloe, these are affordable & [...]

Or even layered underneath a deep V-neck tee… This is a really interesting tube dress, by Eairth, a new Eco-Friendly brand available at Oak NYC that uses [...]
