Plata De Palo

The 2011 collection of European fashion icon PLATA DE PALO has landed at Kaight. This collection of jewelry and accessories are crafted in impeccable tradition. Each handmade piece is carefully done, one-by-one, with incredible attention to detail, defined by high fashion, high quality, and ethnically inspired materials. These pieces are both provocative and timeless. All of  Plata De Palo's materials are selected at source in India, Africa and Asia. These trips have been beneficial in combining glass, buffalo horn, wood and resin with semiprecious stones, leather and nylon, resulting in evocative combinations. We fell in love with the craftsmanship of their pieces back when we had our Pulp Lab Shop with in a Shop. You can tell each item was made with love. Now, we are pleased to announce that Plata De Palo has a special spot in our stores.

You can wear the bracelets alone or stacked for bigger statement. The pouches are great for a night out on the town. Perfect size to fit your metro card, cash, cell phone, keys, and your favorite stand out lipstick! Check out some of our "must haves" on our online shop. Or if you are in the area, stop by either of our locations to see their full collection!

 Remember our knitting party with Wool and The Gang on Tuesday? Congrats to Joslyn B. Hitter for already completing her Snood! (To be fair, she did have a little help from our neighbor, knitter Annette Leah Frey of Biscuits by Lampchop.) Regardless, well done, ladies!!

Our Favorite Coats

Searching for the perfect winter coat is daunting task in and of itself. Searching for a winter coat made from quality, sustainable fabrics is near impossible. Thankfully, there is Nature vs. Future, our go-to for winter coats. All the coats are made from designer, top quality, surplus fabrics, typically in a super luxurious wool/cashmere blend. This year, we love the Swing coat in 100% wool from designer, top quality, surplus fabric as well as the classic Swerve Coatin short and long versions in a beautiful surplus tweed and quality cashmere/wool blend. ♥

From left: Swerve Coat in Rust, $500; Short Swerve in Tweed, $435; Swing Coat in 100% recycled wool, $435.

Allison Parris Gives The Holidays Some Sizzle

It's a pleasure to welcome Allison Parris' Holiday Collection to Kaight, just in time, for, um... well, the holidays. We're crazy in love with the Silk Shift with Beaded Pockets for its spectacular fit, and the fact that it's made in NYC from raw organic silk. How fantastic is that exposed zipper? We also love her grown-up take on the classic Tulle Mini skirt, which is made from 27 layers of 100% Recycled PET Netting. If you're feeling a little more demure, try the beaded ribbed tank. Pair it with slim black pants for a sophisticated look.
