Our new men’s denim line, Comune, has finally arrived at Piece! There are really only two things you need to know about it to justify your purchase:

Justification #2: We think boys look oh-s0-good in them!

T by Alexander Wang

Justification #1: Between Piece and Atticus, we’ve stocked every style you’ll ever want…racer backs, long sleeved shirts, hoodies, and the ever-coveted capelet tee.

Justification #2: Even though the other Atticus Girls pounced on the racer backs and long sleeved shirts as soon as they came in, there’s still more than enough left for everyone else. However, I’m on the prowl and I can’t guarantee Wang will be here for long!

Justification #1: The first shipment of Alice by Temperley is in, and this piece is by far my favorite!

Justification #3: This line gives the quality and details Alice Temperely is known for, at a price point that everyone can love.

Justification #1: The first shipment of Rag&Bone/Jean is also in! We’re one of the first to have it up online…proving yet again that nice girls finish first.

Justification #2: The stiletto bootcut is perfect for wearing over your favorite booties without being reminiscent of ever-so-popular 2002 move of bootcut Sevens over hideous pointy-toed heels.

Oh, Valentine’s Day. It’s a great day to receive presents if you’re with someone, or a day to be dramatic and hate life if there isn’t a boy (or in some circumstances, the boy is too busy to text you back). In any case, here are some gift ideas to bestow on the one you’re with or just yourself.

Giles&Brother XO Studs in Gold Vermeil

Justification #1: Sturdy yet delicate, these earrings can be worn while dressing up or down. Trust me…I wore them everyday for six months straight.

Justification #2: If gold vermeil isn’t your thing, check out the XO Studs in Sterling Silver.

Friend or Foe Frank Sinatra Tee

Justification #1: It might not be the most romantic gift, but it’s red and it has a great fit.

Justification #2: Just remember…when in doubt, clothing is WAY more exciting than thoughtless chocolate.

This past Saturday marked the 24th annual DMI Frostiball. As a last minute attendee, I pulled together the perfect look to represent Atticus, all the while being taped and spanxed into my dress (I swear that sample size was smaller than normal!). Charlotte Ronson came through as always with my (Kristin’s, whatever) beloved One Shoulder Dress. While squeezing into the dress on Saturday afternoon, it occurred to me that maybe I should just purchase the correct size for myself. Sure, Kristin and I basically share a closet, but that may not last forever and I covet this dress. My wise older sister steered me in the direction of top stick and unflattering undergarments that would get me through the night and save me the money of buying another dress. So, since I decided against the purchase there are now enough of these beauties on the rack for me to justify to you. And hopefully you don’t have a “wiser” sister who will be there to talk you out of such purchases!

Justification #1: The one shoulder is the perfect accent on the dress and will save you money because you won’t need to buy a lot of jewelry to go with it!

Justification #2: This dress is 100% silk and less than $200! It might possibly be the best full priced deal you’ll ever see!

Justification #3: The subtle pattern on the dress helps to disguise any spills that might occur in the night. For example, when a glass of champagne gets out of control during a Wild sister dance party.

(Proof that this dress will still look good, even after 2 spilled glasses!)

Justification #1: On a recent trip, I received a business card and it occurred to me that I have no idea where to store it. As a number that I may or may not want to lose, it would probably be best to tuck it away to save for another day. And what better way to store it than in a Card/Cash Case?
