OBSCURIO

This photo is maybe one of the best things I've ever come across on Etsy. Obscurio never disappoints in the beautiful old images they unearth.

PARKA


(via SANFORIZED)

Vintage WWII era B 7 flight parka. Dream coat. I would pay a pretty penny for one of those that actually fit me.

THURSDAY NOVEMBER 18

New in the shop today -- 1930's era ticking fabric leather bottomed weekend bag. Available HERE.

(Found the mattress used to make this bag at an estate sale this past summer.. just got around to processing the material a few weeks ago and it was one of the most intense cleanings to date since I had to remove all the feathers myself and they flew evvvvverywhere. I'm still finding those 70 year old feathers in all the nooks and crannies of my house.)

SATURDAY NOVEMBER 13

Anabela took this sneaky photo of me reading in Stumptown before Little Winter last weekend. I gave up coffee a few months ago but caved while in Portland.. Not afraid to admit that Stumptown is just too good to resist.

PORTLAND, LITTLE WINTER


Like always - the few days I spent in Portland were not enough. Spent my time walking everywhere with close friends, catching up over cocktails, eating delicious food, making many new sweet friends. Oh and was very happy to have spent so much time with Anabela and Geoff!





Little Winter was far and beyond my favorite event of recent past. It exceeded my expectations in every way possible. So thankful for all the time and energy put into making it what it was.

FORESTBOUND FOR ANTHROPOLOGIE








(All photographs by Jeff Allen)

I've created a limited collection of bags exclusively for Anthropologie using canvas salvaged from grain sacks dating between 1910 to 1940. There are two different styles available - a tote with leather shoulder straps and a medium duffle with both handles and an adjustable shoulder strap. Like always - all bags are one of a kind.

They are currently available at Anthroplogie's new accessories only store (which opened in Bethesda, MD this past weekend) as well as the Union Square location in NYC.

There are only 75 available so get in touch with one of the locations above if you're interested!
