AllSaints Spitafields


















AllSaints Spitalfields, a UK brand entered the states and i'm in love. I was in Soho a few weeks ago and was immediately intrigued by this store front. the store has such a unique look, all made of raw brick and the walls are full of vintage singer sewing machines. not to mention the clothing! from the draping, comfortable layer of shirts, pants, sweaters, skirts, dresses, jewelery and distressed and worn in shoes. they even had ipads all over the store that you can view the entire collection on.

























the store was having a 50% sale when i was there but you can also sale shop online.

my first allsaints purchase: the suede stud military cuff boot. love.
