I’m probably AKA New York‘s biggest fan since discovering them at the best sample sale I’ve yet to encounter. Every garment is cut from the finest cloth, with a clear thought about how the wearer will feel in it. The brand was launched in 2004 by three former Elle fashion editors with the motive of allowing personal style not to be overshadowed by ever-changing trends. And now the three ladies (Abigail, Karen, and Ana Maria) have incorporated some very cool casual pieces in their latest collection, but not shying away from their staple ladylike dresses and skirts. The oversized blazers are love! Shop AKA New York at Owl’s Lab 20 East 12th Street 10003 212.633.2672 or log onto owlslab.com and akanewyork.com.
