Who doesn’t like getting their hands on clothes and accessories that are on the celebrity fave list? 

White leather layered to perfection

 

 

Even though not everyone likes to admit it….we all do. We here at Willow St., are no exception; In fact, at the moment, we are (as are Julia Roberts, Giselle Bundchen and Twilight’s Ashley Greene) completely obsessed with the Chan Luu wrap bracelets. Like our favorite celebs, we like to layer them, mix and match them or wear them as long necklaces. 

Crafted from leather cord and any mx of gold dipped nuggets or semi-precious stones, these cool trinkets have just a hint of bohemian but with a richness that takes away anything immature about them.

Not your average celebrity line, House of Harlow 1960 is the creative baby of Nicole Richie. Named for her daughter Harlow, the line is the perfect picture of Richie’s own bohemian style. It is a blend of tribal touches with a gypsy feel mixed with a sexy 70’s glam that seems to fit effortlessly together.

Willow St. has been lucky enough to have the line since its inception, and it has been flying off the shelves ever since. Because of this fact, we feel that we are of the authority to guide you into the pieces that you will not want to be without this season. That being said, we are in love with the following:

  • Arrow cuff – because we are obsessed with the Navajo feel and how it will pair perfectly with our gem toned jeans
  • Crystal necklace – because the enamel mixed with the pave make it look super rich and we cant wait to wear it with our long tops
  • Tribal locket – because it’s beautiful….oh and also we just love lockets!

They are all brand new so check them out in our just in section and below check out some of our favorite celebs loving this line as well!

Meet Chan Luu

Everyone is crazy over Chan Luu wrap bracelets.  Can’t wear too many at one time.  The wrap can be worn as a necklace, bracelet or around your waist.  Chan Luu is huge in the press and seen on a ton of Celebs.  The wraps are all leather with semi precious stones: hematite, onyx, white pearl, natural mother of pearl, labradorite, gold nuggets, silver nuggets, rose gold nuggets ‘and it goes on and on and on’. (Taio Cruz song)

Beer and Burgers

Okay, let’s not get crazy.

It’s good to splurge once in a while, and if you’re not going to splurge at a summer bbq, splurge on your wardrobe.  Whenever you have the ‘urge to splurge’ be sure to chase it with a ‘style steal‘!

‘I never feel guilty when I indulge on some ‘Just In’!  Seconds please, and I’ll take a side of accessories‘.

Test Our Jeanious

You can travel around the world and it would be difficult to find a place where at least one person isn’t wearing some sort of denim.  It can be dressed up or down. Denim looks great whether it is with a lace blouse worn with jewels or jeans and a tee shirt.

We know our Denimwillowst.com loves a good challenge.  Let us make your denim hunt painless.  We can guarantee that we will find you the perfect fit for your body shape, quick:  Willow St. employess come in many different shapes and sizes.  We try on every single pair of jean that comes in and out of the store, giving us the knowledge we need to help you find your perfect fit.  Whether you have a hourglass figure, pear shape, apple shape, the ruler, or the V frame, put us to the test and send us an email for some denim advice  willow@willowst.com.

Our Denim Salon is packed with every jean you can imagine. From bootcut to skinny, to straight leg; Leggings, jeggings, ankle, capri or petite; High rise, low rise, mid rise; Light wash, dark wash, white, beat up and distressed.  We carry a ton of designers: Citizens of Humanity, Seven For All Mankind, J Brand, Easy Money, Rich & Skinny, Red Engine, Joe's Jeans, AG, CJ by Cookie Johnson, DL1961, Sold.

Celebs are going crazy over the jegging/legging trend.  Boutiques can't get them in their stores fast enough. They’re easy to pull on, so cute, and are the perfect piece to layer. "I'm like every other woman: a closet full of clothes, but nothing to wear: So I wear jeans." - Cameron Diaz

Need a fun summer project? Create your own torn-up masterpieces. Ingredients: An old pair of jeans, fabric scissor and a cheese grater. Cut a slit or small triangle into the bottom of your jeans by using a fabric scissor. Use a handheld cheese grater and start with a light pressure with slow movements until you start seeing some of the distressing.

Have you heard about Hem Gem?  Hem Gem is a new product that is made to temporary hem your jeans. Very easy to put on and they are reusable. Studs are still in so why not funk up your denim, you know you will look fashionable. You could always try Hollywood fashion tape if you want to go with a subtle, simple temp hem.

Treat your jeans with a little extra tender loving care. Hot water and jeans don’t mix, NEVER dry your jeans and DON'T use bleach as it may cause the denim to shrink and fade. Wash your jeans separately to avoid any kind of bleeding onto other clothes. If your jeans are too big, have them professionally altered.  Don’t try to shrink them in the dryer. People have experienced them shrinking unevenly.

Lezli, owner and buyer, lives in her denim. She likes a good basic bootcut and her DL1961 skinny ankle jean with a Trove Tkee thong.  She likes to travel in her AG boyfriend shorts and a basic tee layered with a funky necklace or ring. "Never forget your Is A Belt.  I keep one in the car and in my desk at work for back up. It is our #1 seller every week" says Lezli. "Anything denim is huge, more now than ever."

15 Year Vet

You won’t catch Linda without her Laura Mercier, bare beige lip gloss, Ray-Ban sunglasses and her Big Buddha hobo!  Look out!!

The method behind her madness..  Her ‘Jewelry Buying’ madness that is.

Linda has been with Willow St. for 15 years now, Holy Cow!! She is our jewelry and accessory buyer.  Our customers love to accessorize all their outfits, thats the fun part!  You will see her at all the NYC shows getting tips on the latest and greatest trends for every season.  “I buy what I like and whats trending for the times.”  We are always stocked up with Gorjana, Chan Luu and Anna Beck.  Linda will also buy funky jewelry from local designers or designers that only sell to boutiques.

Some things our customers may not know about Linda…

Her favorite designer is Gucci;  Her favorite fashion magazine is Elle;  Favorite Essie color – Mademoiselle;  Fav NYC’s restaurant, Tabla!  Likes to listen to all the new music that’s out, Kate Perry, Rhianna while cruising in her Land Rover LR3 .  Linda is a big fan of finding time to get her workouts in at The Bar Method right here in Summit. Favorite season to shop, Fall.  Loves to wear Vince, Ella Moss, J Brand and Michael Stars. Can eat Sushi or Mexican any night of the week and its even better when there’s time for a Mojito.

“I’m a little bit of a shoes addict.  I think my 2 year old daughter may be following in my footsteps.  She is starting to acquire her own little shoe collection.”  Linda is always on the go with being a mom of three,  her days are jam packed especially with sports.  “I like to be comfy casual for my sons baseball games.  A splendid tee or tank and a pair of Joe’s Jeans shorts works perfect.”

Her style is casual and neat.  “I can’t leave home without a watch and a Chan Luu 5 wrap.” “I’m always accessorizing with an Anna Beck ring and my silver Gorjana Luna hoop earrings, and I’m out the door.”  She is also wearing the J Brand Houlihan cargo in her photo.  So trendy.

“Know my customer with small children and can relate to their need to feel put together and fashionable.”
