Although the weather keeps playing tricks with us and we keep thinking Mr. Sunshine will be staying for more than a day, we can still start Spring and Summer wardrobe shopping. There’s nothing like a little positive thinking to usher in warmer weather. We here at Holly Boutique are excited for all the incoming new must-have pieces that are rolling in and we hope that you’ll come around for a visit, take a peek and share the excitement.

Gypsy ’05 has been a Holly mainstay brand for several seasons now and for good reason! Established in 2005 by brother and sister duo, Osi and Dotan Shoham, the brand is a reflection and celebration of the Southern California lifestyle. Utilizing exclusive dye techniques and progressive wash processes, each Gypsy ’05 piece represents uniqueness as no two dyed pieces will be the same. With a focus on incorporating organic fabrics, soy softeners, low impact dyes and seaweed extract printing into the collection, the company holds environmental awareness as a core philosophy. Located in Los Angeles, California, where their headquarters is based, is the first completely solar-powered dyeing, printing and manufacturing facility.

We just love the eco-friendly vision of this company (plus the dresses!) and we know you will fall in love with the clothes as much as we have. Newly arrived is the Nahil Smocked Tube Maxi Dress $245 and the Nahil Cold Shoulder V-Neck Mini Dress $165. Come and try one on for size before they’re sold out, and don’t say we didn’t warn you first.

Melissa is the latest and hottest shoe line that we are carrying at Holly. A world renowned brand, Melissa is all about providing cutting edge design collaborations, chic styling and on trend colour finishes without having to sacrifice comfort. In addition to an ultra comfortable fit, each Melissa shoes is infused with a fun bubble gum scent to ensure that you don’t carry a lingering rubber smell around that most “plastic” shoes may have.

As each melissa shoe is non-leather, they will not degrade in weather or water and are completely suitable for vegans and animal rights supporters.

Each Melissa shoe is made entirely of plastic and not the kind of plastic that is harming our world. There are many different kinds of plastic and many different technologies used to manufacture, use and recycle plastic. Melissa plastic shoes are made from mono-materials, which means they can be easily disassembled and recycled.

Melissa understands the “PPP” philosophy: People, Planet, Profit by focusing on a zero waste ethos and keeping in mind the life cycle of materials by recycling 99.9% of the factory water and waste and recycling overstock product for next seasons collection.

If that isn’t enough, Melissa is part of a non profit organizations that supports local homeless womens and childrens centers and also plays an active role in developing green urban areas.

So next time you stop by Holly you can shop guilt free when purchasing a pair of Melissa shoes because not only will you walk away with the PERFECT Spring Summer shoe, but also part of the proceeds go towards a good cause! How can you resist?!

Rebecca Taylor is a newer line that we have coveted at Holly and every shipment we receive has us bubbling with excitement and drooling when we taste (try) each piece. This seasons collection is no different.

Our latest shipment from Rebecca Taylor had a creme de la creme piece that had us salivating at first glance! The Tweed Moto Jacket combines the classy elegant tweed material with a tough biker chic design; allowing you to edge it up or class it out! Whatever suits your sartorial needs, this jacket can do it.

Available in an on trend monochromatic black and grey, pairing this piece with your ensemble will be effortless.

Our style suggestion? Keep it casual and let the jacket speak for itself. Pair it with your favorite skinny jean, a drapey tee and your fave pair of killer booties.

So to sum things up, we love this piece and we think you’ll love it too!
