A Window Fit for a Boudoir Queen

Saturday, January 28th, 2012

Vintage sleepwear is incredible. The detail put into nightgowns and lingerie back when they were primarily handmade never ceases to amaze us… and the silks and satins don’t hurt much either!

For our most recent window, we’re displaying some dreamy vintage boudoir looks, as well as saucy vintage-inspired lingerie. Take a gander. Some detail shots after the jump!

An Ode to Wool and Woolly Things

Wednesday, January 11th, 2012

There’s no better companion during the winter months than a quality wool coat, or a luxurious cashmere sweater. Here, Alex and Angelina photograph several wool pieces that could become a staple of your winter wardrobe.

Starting with an essential element to any woman’s wardrobe, the gigantic cozy sweater. It doubles as a blanket for lazy evenings on the couch, but you can also dress it up with a belt and boots for a night out! This one is a wool blend, for added comfort.

Halfway between your favorite blazer and your favorite flannel button-up, this brightly-colored wool jacket is an easy (and warm!) way to spice up jeans and a t-shirt.

More essential winter wools for both men and women after the jump!

Petrune the Phoenix

Thursday, January 5th, 2012

On January 15th 2011, Petrune reopened after a devastating fire closed our doors. A year later we are happy to say that not only are we still here, but have had our best sales year to date. With your support, like a phoenix, we have risen from the ashes stronger (and even more stylish). Thank you Ithaca and our followers around the world.
