Ladies, get your scissors ready! Cut outs are all the rage for Summer 2013, giving our clothes an eye catching edgy twist that we can't resist. Versace keeps the trend on point by creating asymmetrical silhouettes and adding feminine touches of lace and airy fabrics.
Emilio Pucci wows us with his contrast of solid and sheer fabrics...and don't even get us started on the sheer baroque cut out jacket. Emilio Pucci, you are a genius.
Carven makes us do a double take and leaves us dreaming for weeks about that little red dress. We love how they use a simple bean like shape to create a cut out silhouette that makes us want more!
Cut out overload! We adore Alexander Wang's modern approach to this trend with his cut out stripe patterns and boxy silhouettes. He even takes the cut out trend from head to toe with his strappy sandals and cut out knee high boots. Well done Mr. Wang, well done.
Be sure to shop our store for our amazing cut out pieces!

Meet Rachel Kaye, a local San Francisco artist whose work is fun, brilliant, and something our eyes just couldn't ignore! Inspired by adventuring in and around Golden Gate Park, her work is all about patterns, bright colors, and geometrics. "Pattern is everything" according to Rachel and when asked if her art had a soundtrack, what would it be? She responded with David Bowie, oh and did we mention her style icon is Iris Apfel? This gal knows whats up! Not only is her artwork swoon worthy, but her relaxed yet intricate style of work makes us want to be her new BFF.
Check out more of Rachel's work here and find out where you can see her latest work!
