What Is Your Go-To Outfit?

Saturday, August 29th, 2009

As Fall is quickly approaching, what is your go-to outfit for right now?  I never know what the weather is going to be like so I have been relying on my scarf and cardigan if it gets cold.  These items can easily be taken on or off depending on the weather.

Here is my go-to outfit below.  This is the outfit I quickly gravitate towards  if nothing in my closet seems to look good on me that day (I know we all have those days). I always use my favorite denim and t-shirt as a base to start off on, but the key is to change it up with my accessories.  I’m not really a sweat pants wearing girl so this is like my ultimate comfort outfit when I leave the house because I look polished and comfortable at the same time.  I live by the motto, “if you look good you feel good”.  Comment below and let me know what your go-to outfit is.

My "Go-To" Outfit

In this set (all can be found at Parc this Fall):

  • Love Quotes Scarf
  • Alternative Apparel Burnout Pocket Tee
  • J Brand Pencil Leg
  • Le Glitz Multi Metal Chain necklace
  • By Boe 14k gold filled bow ring
  • Fluxus Bias Wrap

It’s All About The Fringe This Fall

Wednesday, August 26th, 2009

This is to answer all the phone calls and emails we have been getting about the Kersh Fringe scarf that we showcased at the Allure Fall Fashion Show and The Boardwalk Fashion Show…After selling out so quicky, they are now BACK IN STOCK in grey and emerald sea!  Girls and Guys can totally rock this scarf!  At $45 a piece, it’s an affordable way to follow this trend.   So let’s all get on this bandwagon and add a little fun to our Fall wardrobe.

It’s so versatile we had fun coming up with different ways to wear it!

Wrap it around your neck twice to create layers of fringe

Wrap it around your neck once and let the fringe hang low and loose

Throw it over a shoulder

Backstage at the Boardwalk Fashion Show 8.22.09

Tuesday, August 25th, 2009

Our NE Boardwalk fashion show last Saturday was a huge success!  I literally had people wanting to buy the clothes straight off the model’s back.  It was jam packed with all sorts of different fashions from all the wonderful local NE shops.  It was a perfect Summer day filled with fun and I think everyone had a great time, it was also a bonus to see all the familiar faces in the crowd.  Oh how we love our Parc customers!   Everyone was telling me they had such a great time and was amazed at all the shopping NE had to offer.  Special thanks to Ali and Alexis from ShopGirls FM 107.1 and DJ Chris Dunn of Creative Ironwerks who did a fantastic job keeping the crowd entertained.  More pictures from the runway coming soon!

Here’s the Parc crew working hard backstage getting all the looks ready for the show:

Fall Fashion Arrivals

Thursday, August 20th, 2009

Fall is upon us and not only is it my favorite season, but it’s my favorite season for fashion. It’s the season of chunky sweaters, pea coats, cardigans, and lots and lots of layering; all of which, I can’t get enough of. So you can imagine my excitement when new sweaters from Dex and C. Luce arrived at Parc’s doorstep.

I love this camel colored sweater by Dex. It has a great chunky neckline, and goes perfectly with a pair of dark skinny jeans.

This a-symmetrical beige sweater from C. Luce is a must-have for fall. It is super comfortable and the style of it can be easily transformed by adding a belt.

The bold, vibrant colors of fall are one of my favorite things about the season. This plum-colored vest by Dex fits right in, and can be layered over a basic long or short sleeve T.
