Our first dress

August 28th, 2010

We’re happy to introduce the Tiffany Bean clothing line!!!

I’ve been working towards this for a couple years now, and am so excited to have ONE dress completed and in the shop!  We hope to have more soon, but take a look at our first dress!

The Doris Dress

The Doris Dress

The line is inspired by old movies that I grew up watching, Doris Day and James Bond films in particular (my favorites!)  Each piece has a slightly retro feel to it and fits into our store perfectly!  I hope you like it as much as I do!  I’m focused on using high quality fabrics that feel great and wear great, a fit that is comfortable and flattering and creating timeless styles that will work season after season.

Fall is fun

August 17th, 2010

Normally Fall clothing arrives and I’m instantly filled with sadness…I LOVE SUMMER!  I love the dresses, colors, fabrics, everything about Summer fashion, but this year the Fall is arriving and though I’m not ready to let go of Summer, I have to admit, it’s awesome in it’s own muted way!

There’s wonderful art deco inspired pieces like this amazing Trina Turk dress (we also have this print in a mini skirt!)
I’d pair it with this fabulous necklace…

For more casual attire, we’ve gotten in fabulous fly-away cardigans from Goddis.

These are scrumptious!  They’re super soft, can be worn to work or everyday, can be dressed up, I plan on living in them this Fall!

And then there’s dresses from everyone…of course!  We love these from Hype:
