jenna and cary of ace&jig sent me this frock coat a few weeks ago. as you well know, i adore their super soft woven textiles and laid-back 70s california vibe. instead of keeping it for myself, i wanted to offer the coat to a reader. it's a size small, with many buttons down the front, a gathered loose back, side pockets, and fully lined in white cotton.

leave your name and contact info in the comments if you're interested! i'll do a random draw next monday, october 11.

edit:
if you live outside of the US, i would appreciate a small contribution to cover some of the shipping. thanks!

more ace & jig

i couldn't stop thinking about how soft and lovely the ace & jig fabric was. of course stel's and bows+arrows both sold out of the dress and tank in my size (medium) by the time i was ready to commit. i called steven alan tribeca this morning. no luck. and then i checked penelope's shop online, and there it was. they have the tank in yellow, white, and blue, too. i went with the navy version because it's august and i'm gearing up for autumn. i'm hoping to pair it with tights, boots, and a parka this winter. i may just have to get the tank, too. there's still at least five more weeks of warm weather...

navy tank and yellow and blue dress available at bows + arrows.

i stopped by stels the other day to check out their 50% off sale. i saw a new line called ace & jig, which uses medium-weight fabric woven in india. their designs remind me of growing up in southern california in the late 80s.

i wish i had brought my camera, because the fit is really great, especially on the tank. i tried on the top dress in the blue and yellow fabric, and the tank, which has tiny side pockets. super sweet.
