Ooh la la…Cannisse!

catherineh64 — Fri, 24 Feb 2012 14:24:41 +0000

Nous aimons Cannise for many reasons not the least of which is their new Spring/Summer linen collection. Cannisse has been designing and making their line in the South of France and Europe for 27 years. While many describe their style as “sporty chic”, we find it playful, elegant and tres comfortable. The designer (who BTW, has been there since their inception) “plays” with a number of different shapes and fabrics to “create asymmetry and an incomparable fit”.

We have just received our shipment from France so stop by and take a look. We are one of the few boutiques to carry the Cannisse line in the U.S. and we think that you will find the quality second to none.

Now is a great time to stop in and see what’s been arriving at the newly refreshed Catherine H! Let’s start with the Spring collection from Stewart + Brown.

Utilizing fabrics such as non-GMO organic Cotton, Tencel gauze, hemp silk charmeuse, hemp jersey and linen, they create beautiful lines that flatter the body and feel wonderful against the skin. BTW, the textile processing includes non-toxic and low impact methods that have no hidden environmental impacts or consequences leaving green fabrics with a minimal eco-footprint.

Stewart+Brow, pioneers of the sustainable fashion movent are determind to: ”Optimize their designs and lives to attain the highest standards of quality and functional style while extracting the bare minimum from Earth’s precious capital”. We love that!

Things that say “Be Mine” for under $50

We cannot keep these little Sweeties in stock and she’ll like them better than a box of chocolates…Opera Gloves (wrist warmers) and Corsets by AngelRox, add a flash of color or just that little “je ne sais quoi” to any outfit. Available in many colors and stripes from shy to spicy.

Who does not heart a beautiful pair of earrings? While they don’t say ”U R A Q T” they do say ”well designed and uber stylish”. We love the entire line by Laboa

Handmade in Africa and fair trade to boot, these gorgeous hair clips keep your loved one’s luscious locks in place without confining, pulling or giving her a headache — just like your love for her.

While “readers” may not be the most romantic gift they do say ” I care about your beautiful eyes”! We have foldable readers that come in their own hardshell case. Now the love of your life can see your beauty as well.

We are Re-Opened!
