UNIQLO and Velvet Collab for the Summer
It’s almost Friday! And on that note, it’s got me ready to put on my weekend gear – super-soft pieces I can realllllly feel comfy in (ok, who am I kidding, I wear this kind of stuff every day! but whatev…). Two brands I heart to pieces are UNIQLO and L.A.-based label Velvet by Graham & Spencer – and they’ve teamed up for an amazing summer collection…squeal!!!
We’re talking high-end basics (that are VERY affordable) that you’ll never wanna take off. Well, except to go for a dip in the pool. Velvet has been around since 1997, and I feel like I’ve been wearing it about that long. Every time I make a trip to Barneys, I wind up flipping through the Velvet rack – I’m just so drawn to super-luxe tees like these, I can’t help myself.
This collection will feature 10 different pieces – from shirts and tanks to dresses and bottoms. You’ll def find something to catch that chic eye of yours. I really love the fun colors of turquoise, yellow, blue and pink. I definitely love the blue and orange pairing in the photo above (I’m so struck by the combo, it gives me goosebumps!), and I think the blue maxi dress is everything. What I can’t believe is everything is so affordable – from $12.90 for a tank; $19.90 for a tee or $29.90 for a dress or bottoms.
And you can scoop them all up beginning this Monday, June 4 at one of the three UNIQLO locations in Manhattan. Sigh…you lucky, lucky New Yorkers. Pick up a piece or two for me? Wink.

Hello Julie. Lovely choice of colours. I enjoyed the fashion parade tonight. Especially the Black and White ensembles. The Black and White striped patterns were a hoot —prison stripes! How ironic.
