Join Us For the #ShopGracieB Twitter Party!

July is almost ending and August will be here before you know it! August is a month that is well known for it's "back to school" theme. For most girls, it's not so much the school supplies that you get excited about buying as it as the new back-to-school clothes. 

When doing your back-to-school shopping, be sure to pick up a few new pieces that can be easily transitioned from summer to fall weather. Dresses are always great because you can pair them with tights or cardigan in the fall, while wearing them alone in the summer.

Top Picks for Spring 2012

From preppy style to pretty florals to fun micro prints, there are some really great fashion trends to choose from this Spring. At gracie b. I love dissecting the latest trends and bringing the best of the best into the shop. For one of our latest emailers (if you haven't yet, you can sign up here), I put together a few of my top picks.


Florals
Nothing says spring like a great floral piece and this spring there is an abundance of floral to choose from. From pretty pastels to bold brights, floral is making a big statement this year.  I love the two floral options above for different reasons. The Blue Du Jour Maxi dress is a sassy little number, great for a date night but equally as perfect for a Saturday morning brunch with the girls. Just throw on a cardi and great flat sandals! The I've Got Sunshine Full skirt beside it is the perfect floral piece to wear to the office. A navy top with a great pair of pumps will make you trend right and office appropriate.


Micro Prints
This is probably one of the funnest trends to wear this season, in addition to being my personal favorite. Micro prints can be whimsical and fun because the look very simple from a distance, but upon closer examination realize there is more than meets the eye. For example, something simple looking like polka dots turns out to actually be something unusual like the small outline of a cat, as seen here in The Cat's Meow dress.


Prep Club
Finally, we finish with a classic look that is making a big come-back this spring: preppy style. Take a cue from the nautically inspired Red-dy to Set Sail top and start layering on the stripes and primary colors. Pair with a great pair of cuffed jeans and boat shoes, and you're off to the yacht club! For work, pull on the always classic You've "Red" My Mind Full skirt with your pearls and pumps. 


So, there you have it! A rundown of some of the greatest trends of the season. You can check out the entire selection on our trend page.

This just in: gracie b. is now at The Hub!

About a month ago, I kind of told you that I had some exciting news coming up that I couldn't share quite yet.  Well, I am happy to say that I can finally share my exciting news... gracie b. can now be found at The Hub of Topeka!


For those of you not familiar with The Hub, it is a great little collective boutique located in Fairlawn Plaza at 21st and Fairlawn.  The Hub features one-of-a-kind clothing, accessories and home decor from a variety of small, independently owned nearby boutiques.  While the above is not the best photo I've ever taken, I was so excited to share my good news that I snapped a quick picture with my iPhone after I set up last weekend!


So, please come visit and share with a friend!
