All Guys Look Cuter When They Wear Gant by Michael Bastian

We loved the title "All Guys Look Cuter When They Wear Gant by Michael Bastian" from the Racked article about Michael Bastian's new spring 2012 line for GANT. If you've been into the store, you know that we here at George & Jane love GANT. Classicly american, well-made pieces that are on trend without trying too hard. How much fun does their presentation in New York look?

Below are our favorite looks from this season:
(my personal favorite? the printed pants in look 1)

LIEBESKIND BERLIN

We are thrilled to announce a new addition to the carefully curated selection of brands available in the shop! Liebeskind (the German term for Love Child) is a Berlin-based accessories label that has put out a collection of seriously enviable handbags. Made from high quality washed leather and suede, Liebeskind bags are known for their unique design, ability to maintain their shape over time, and their competitive pricing.

We currently carry the Nico bag in Olive and Brown (shown above), and the larger Pia in Petrol (shown below).

Both models are ideal fall purses, so come by the shop and check them out!

LE STYLE EST DANS LA RUE

George and Jane was recently featured on "Le Style est Dans la Rue", a new show on the Mademoiselle (MLLE) network. The show features two stylish ladies from Montreal and challenges them to shop for 2 outfits for different occasions at 2 different stores with a 500$ budget. One of our favorite customers Lise Michaud chose our store to shop, and walked away with 2 great pieces!

Lise bought Funktional's transformable Galaxy dress(sold out) for her "blind date" look and Gestus' printed Tunic(on sale!) for her "housewarming" look.

Unfortunately, Lise's episode has already aired but you can watch "Le Style est dans la Rue" on Monday-Wednesdays at 7:30pm, Wednesdays-Fridays at 10:30 and Friday-Sunday at 9am.

KATE MOSS // ELEVEN PARIS

Kate Moss recently married her rockstar boyfriend Jamie Hince from the Kills (Congrats!), in a beautiful Zelda Fitzgerald inspired, John Galliano designed dress.

Don't worry boys, you can still have a piece of Kate Moss even though
 she's a married woman now, through Eleven Paris' super soft tee.

TRENDS: OUR TAKE

Here's our take on using swimwear for other occasions, One Teaspoon's black poppies one piece acts exactly like a bodice, perfect to go under FACTORY by Erik Hart's draped skirt.
A fun and daring date look!

ONE TEASPOON // Eagle Shadow Bikini

L.A. based blogger Olivia Lo ( Lust For Life ) effortlessly tries out one of spring's hottest trends: swimwear as outerwear. In other words, wearing your bikini even if you have no intentions of going to the beach. Swimwear has become more and more intricate and detailed in recent years, so why not show it off?

One Teaspoon's Eagle Shadow bikini is the perfect option with it's cage detail;
the perfect nod to the omnipresent harnesses all over the runways this season.
