We Are Five

Hi all,


 We've been away for little a while, but we're back with a special celebration this week... L'Armoire's 5th birthday!! Yes, can you believe it. We are turning 5 on Wednesday and to celebrate we'll have treats and special give aways with every purchase in store on the day. Please pop in and celebrate with us and bring your friends too!

Wrap Up

Now the weather has finally turned truly autumnal we've got some seasonal wardrobe essentials that are sure to be on your hit list. We all like to wrap up from the cold, but doing it stylishly is key. We've got all the winter warmers you'll need from cosy coats to snugly knits, so take note.

The Coats

Probably the biggest coat trend of AW14 is the blanket/wrap coat. We've all seen the Burberry tribe strutting their blankets, monogrammed with the initials of the model who's wearing it and of course, Malene Birger has tapped right in to this trend with her 'Zabina' blanket coat. With it's versatile and subtle plaid print, this has got to be a 'throw over everything piece' that will be a hard worker in your wardrobe all season.

 

Take inspiration from the catwalks and scale up your proportions in an oversized winter white cocoon style coat. We have the perfect one by American Vintage which will have you feeling snug as a bug with plenty of room for layering underneath.


 If your looking for something seriously luxurious, Day have the perfect fit. Their sherling panelled tailored coat is a real forever piece that's a true classic and can be brought out year upon year. Perfect as a festive party season cover up.


The hard working hero coat has got to be Filippa K's 'Bella' parka. We totally fell in love with it's cool and practical qualities so much so we had to stock it in both colourways. Below we've featured the khaki/cream combo but it also comes in navy/black too. Oh and the best feature of all... it's two coats in one! You can completely separate the layers and wear as you wish.
 

This Weeks Featured Knit

 Add a little splash of colour in to your winter wardrobe with this American Vintage coral knit. Made with Italian yarn it's super soft and snugly, perfect for that slouchy off duty look and will be sure to brighten up a dull and dreary day. Why not style it with one of Malene Birger's iconic leopard scarves.


See you soon xx

Holiday Hot List

Hi all,

We would like to think summer has arrived but the weather seems to be telling us different each week... Anyway, don't let it dampen your summer spirit! For those of you jetting off to sunnier climates, we've got a whole host of holiday must haves that you really won't want to be without plus a peek at What's New in the boutique.

Nailstation Paris High Summer polishes have just arrived ready for the holiday season! Pick one of these perfect pop's of colour, ready to jet off somewhere tropical (or to just make you feel in the mood). 


Holiday Hot List

Day Birger et Mikkelsen's 'Alva' printed cotton tunic is a mush have. A cool essential cover up for beach or pool, this pretty piece will also double up as a dress to wear for a day sight seeing or out for an evening meal. Style tips: Cinch in with skinny belt and layer your beads and necklaces bohemian stlyle. 


What is a holiday wardrobe without a pop of colour? Malene Birger is thinking pink with this fluro, silk asymmetric top. Once again, easy to style day or night (multi-functional is key). Style tip: Keep it simple.

 
American Vintage are best known for their soft cotton basics which in recent collections has extended to a silk group too. This barley clouds print tank style adds a luxury element to any holiday wardrobe looking relaxed with shorts or dressed up under a tux jacket and soft trousers. Style tip: Tuck in if your look is blousey and billowing and leave out if it's skinny or skimpy.

New In

As we all know fashion and seasons move so quickly. Believe it or not, we are just receiving our AW14 Pre collections. Pieces you can wear right now, that will also take you seamlessly through to in to the Autumn. Here's some of our favourites so far..,

The Sports Luxe Look

Hi all,

 We're bringing a slightly more sporty element to this newsletter, but don't worry, we won't have you out exerting yourself too much (only in the shopping department). This is purely what they call 'sports luxe'. Introducing an element of shape or fabric that heralds from sportswear in it's origin.

 American Vintage are first up with their 'Lincoln Liberty' shorts. A style that is almost always associated with a more active lifestyle, these are actually quite the opposite. Silk in fabric and oh so pretty in print, these chic little shorts will take you from off duty day to sophisticated nighttime with ultimate ease. We've teamed them with clean Filippa K grey linen tee and soft modal scarf.

 Next up is this fun star stitched 'Niddia' sweatshirt from By Malene Birger. A play on the old baseball sweat shape, this once again has been re-worked in to something altogether more stylish. We love the side zip detail revealing a secret silk insert too and would 'play down' a clean leather pencil skirt for a sleeker, and more modern look.

Track pants have been re-modelled in to a soft print summer trouser. Keeping the the simple tapered shape is key to making this style work for you. The waistband has stayed elasticated (thank goodness), so keeps the ultimate comfort element in. They also look great styled with heels or flats making them a versatile modern trouser option. Both Filippa K and Day Birger et Mikkelsen have come up with their take on this trend.

 

This Week's Star Buy

 Feeling all inspired buy the Coachella music festival taking part across the pond, we love this Day Birger et Mikkelsen 'Monsoon' jacket that's just arrived in store this week. Super cool and practical it has the perfect balance of utility, and bohemian in equal measures and the best feature of all.., zip off sleeves! Cleverly turning itself in to a cute little gilet for when the weather warms up, we're sure this the perfect summer purchase.

 

Have a happy Easter xx

Trend Revival

Hi all,

If your looking for great gift ideas, why not make Mother's day special and treat her to something lovely from L'Armoire. What better way to say thank you than picking something perfect for her. We'll help you along the way with our 3 favourite picks from the boutique. P.S. It works both ways, drop a not so subtle hint if there's something you like and just send your loved ones in.

1. Add a pop of colour with By Malene Birger's large dip dye silk scarves. Neon pink, emerald green and charcoal, £110 each



2. Make up a Spring combination of Filippa K ballerina pink linen tee, £69 and American Vintage barley clouds print modal scarf, £54


3. Choose one of Orelia's pretty bracelets that never fail to make you smile, from £12 - £35


Trend Revival

A trend that some of us remember from the first time around is a modern take on dip dye. Thank goodness it's had a make over and is sleeker, cleaner and just a bit more polished. Our go to designer Malene Birger has once again taken a modern twist on a classic with this beautiful neon pink 'Mauda' silk top. Dress up with navy cropped peg trousers or down with jeans and sandals. Also doubles up as a chic beach cover up.


You Might Want To Know...

For those of you who snapped up a pair or two of the incredible Filippa K super stretch skinny jeans you may want to form an orderly cue for the updated Spring/Summer version in chambray blue. They arrived in store just this week.

Spring's Flash Feature

Hi all,

It's been a while, but L'Armoire's newsletter is back, bigger than ever! Packed full of Spring's most desirable pieces and style ideas for the new season ahead. We guarantee this will give you that Spring buzz with plenty of ideas on how to bridge the gap between seasons whilst looking stylish and weather appropriate. 

Flash Feature

It's always great to start adding a lighter or brighter accent of colour in to your wardrobe as days become longer and temperatures start to rise. A neon flash here or a fresh spring hue there can direct your look with a nod towards a new season. 


Neon is a great place to start. American Vintage have cleverly introduced this punchy shade in their relaxed core basics and tee's along with super soft cotton scarf. Layer it up under black blue or grey now and take it right through to high summer teaming it with clean cut white.




Why not opt for a floral pop with By Malene Birger's loose silk blousey top. It's vibrant coral hue will liven up a summer suit such as this cream take on a cool tux. Great if your looking for a stylishly alternative Summer wedding outfit.

 
Why not let this bright yellow By Malene Birger boucle jacket put a fresh spin on your jeans and tee combo. It's semi tailored Jackie O' style is collarless with a bracelet sleeve keeping it clean and chic. 


Spring Cover Up
We all know that a rain mac is never going to be far from reach with a typical British Summer time ahead of us. Day have upped their game with this luxurious brushed twill draped trench coat that just oozes relaxed, easy glamour. Cinch it in to emphasise the waste or relax your silhouette out knotting the belt at the back. A great investment wardrobe staple.

See you soon xx 

P.S. For all you American Vintage fanatics, the new colours are in!
