Harvey Faircloth..Penny for your thoughts?





I love Harvey Faircloth and must thank my friend and favorite fashion blogger and stylist, Kelley Lilien (www.mrslilien.com) for introducing me to this great modern line, which somehow maintains a hint of nostalgia which I love to see. Not only do I love the clean, crisp clothes, I love the ladies behind the curtain of this New York based design house. Abby Clawson Low, Katie Hatch and Mara Papa launched HF in the summer of 2008 after years of putting their designer dreams on hold. They named the line after a gentleman Katie sat next to at a wedding..an eccentric and seemingly well-traveled fellow named Harvey Faircloth who said to Katie ..and I am paraphrasing, "Hey Kid, you've got to follow your dreams...Press on regardless" They took his advice and launched their company at the onset of the financial crisis even though it was a risk....These ladies "pressed on!" and Voila! I, for one, am glad they did...They mix up bold prints with tailored ensembles for a fresh, witty look. I love the Penny Ring too!...Fun, Fun! Go to Harvey Faircloth for on line sales and a list of stores.
