Newbies!

Hurray! Our fabulous Anne Taintor gifts are in! Super sassy - really we have something for everyone. Online you can find her products with us HERE. In store, we also have tea towels, notepads and christmas cards.
Also, we have a GORGEOUS bag in from LeSportsac's Stella McCartney's collection. (above). Shop for it HERE.
And lastly, new James Jeans! Delicious denim as always. Clamdiggers and Flip Flop Jeans. Hollah!!

Those Fall Jeans you've been waiting for have arrived!

The newest arrival to our Fall collection is our new denim jeans. What I love about the denim here at Jac. is the diversity in design and material. I love the fact that when you slide on pair of James, Anlo, or Kasil denim you can dress it up or dress it down. They can be paired with a silk shirt, the highest of high heels, and you are ready to head out for the night and feel dressed up and comfortable at the same time. On the other side of the coin you can grab a pair of Converse and a tee shirt and go for a bike ride on a Sunday afternoon. Regardless of what you envision for your day, the denim here at Jac. will be a sure fire way to feel good while looking good!

James jeans is a company based out of Los Angeles where they take much pride in the process of dry aging their denim. Here are a few examples of the James jeans we carry here at Jac. for Fall.

Anlo is another one of our staple denim companies we carry here at Jac. Anlo is a company also based in Los Angeles. These black skinny jeans, have a shinny finish with a "rocker" look at the ankle.
We have high-waisted jeans, low waisted jeans, dark denim, medium color denim, black and grey denim, skinny, boot cut, to flared jeans. So come in and check it out for yourself. We will be glad to help you find exactly what you are looking for!

We look forward to seeing you soon!

Thanks!

Denim Must Haves

We're doing it all this season with denim from great basics to the super sexy skinny's. The must have washes are dark denim, black and gray. So you have to know how excited I was to see the new denim from Anlo and James Jeans-Dry Aged Denim ! They're just what the fashion guru ordered.

Time-honored Humphrey by James Jean gives the appearence of a longer, leaner leg with a higher-rise in the back so ain't nothin gonna show! Who wouldn't love that?!


Kate jean by Anlo combines the old with new. The skinny silhouette gives a look of the 50's. The modern twist comes with the polyurethane blend and button detail at the ankle. Hot, hot , hot!

DENIM UPDATE

Hey guys, your Kasil jeans are here (lighter color also available):


Hey Gals,
We have some fab new jeans in for you too!

The James Jean Clamdigger in Ref is so hot with heels and also hides under boots for Fall! Looks AMAZING on curvy girls!

And from Anlo, just in, the Nori Straightleg is a fab faded black, perfect for you long legged gals!

Jeans: Not Just For Miners Anymore

Back in the day, a failed brewer/cigar store owner named Jacob Wolf decided to try his luck in the tailoring business. He wasn't the kind of tailor that was hemming pantsuits (shout out to Hillary Clinton's stylist on that one) or altering dresses, mind you. This was back in 1871 in the wild west, and our hero was doing his best to outfit mining folk in Reno, Nevada. Not exactly a career choice driven by a burning desire to make a difference in the fashion world.

Young Jacob Wolf had the idea to make trousers out of a material known as "white duck", strengthening them with some copper rivets that had were left over from some horse blankets he'd been making. The trousers were an overnight success, with miners from near and far flocking to his small shop to buy a pair of these new miracle pants - now known as jeans!

Thing is, Jacob had just enough money to keep his business going- he didn't exactly have money budgeted for patent protection. With nowhere else to turn, he asked his fabric supplier if he might help. That fabric supplier's name was Levi Strauss.

What began as one tailor's creative use of horse blanket rivets has spawned one of our national obsessions. Here are some of Jac's latest and greatest:

Kasil Taryn lightweight jeans ($178)

James Jeans Oliver Bermuda Shorts ($150)

Anlo Highwaisted Gena Skirt ($202) in an awesome, old school L'Eggs advertisement pose
