Don’t know about you, but when temps drop, our appetite for books spikes. Though we love to read on the regular, there’s something about fall that makes us want to cozy up with a good book and cancel our plans. On our nightstands right now? Two juicy reads from local Connecticut authors Lauren Weisberger and Beatriz Williams. Complete with vivid characters, power struggles and enough intrigue to keep the pages turning. We also love when recognizing their local shoutouts (like literary celebrity sightings!), and of course supporting these great writers in our midst. The perfect pairings for their pages? Frothy...

We have found ourselves wishing, waiting, wondering: When will fall finally feel like it’s arrived for good? Obviously we live for fleece season, so we’re hoping this time it’s here to stay (dare we say this week is looking good?). Kaki wearing our Park Slope Turtleneck in Heather Grey Our lightweight Vello fleece (from sustainable yarn!) has been getting us through this never-ending seasonal transition.

A sail on our beloved Long Island Sound gave us the idea for Dudley Stephens—so it only made sense to give back to the environment when it came time to source our fleece.  Since we launched in 2015, we've been sourcing our fabric from one of the original fleece manufacturers, well-known for inventing a genius manufacturing method to spin yarn from recycled plastic bottles that would otherwise land in landfills (a shocking 40 billion plastic bottles are trashed each year in the U.S. alone).  The quality of the yarn is equal in performance—we think it’s even softer, more luxe and more durable—as traditional fleece...

We all wish we could be “craft mom,” but about .02 percent of us actually are. So we love those life hacks that feel creative without involving glitter and glue guns. Which is why we’re crazy about the idea of “Halloweening” our Little Girls Turtleneck—the perfect base layer for all kinds of creative (and easy!) costumes. Hello, Pinterest? The ideas are endless. Here, we gave Elle the full Minnie treatment with a skirt, shoes and ears that make no mistake about her Mouse Club status. The Little Girls Turtleneck in white also transforms seamlessly with cat or bunny ears...or what...
