Barlow is a clothing line inspired by epic contradictions in fashion. Traditional and contemporary undertones are interlaced in this unique collaboration of style. It is where feminine meets tomboy. The conception of this collection branches from the relationship between designer Molly Girard Coonan, her former mentor Cynthia Vincent, and design muse Alice Barlow. Barlow has been in stores worldwide since January 2010 and includes a collection of geometric garments and city essentials that you will not want to miss!

From our friends at thefind.com:
When it comes to summer style, I am loving the embellished tunic trend — not just for their elaborate, intricate details like embroidering and beading, but also for their versatility that allows you to rock them all summer long, day or night. Tunics are a step up from your basic tees and tanks because they’re just as comfortable (with lots of breathing room!) but dress things up just a bit with their day-friendly sparkle, or can even dress things up a whole lot, depending on how you choose to rock it! Wear one with jeans or with a pair of shorts and espadrilles for a casual but upscale daytime look, or if the length of the tunic allows for it, wear it as a dress or with leggings and heels for a night on the town!
This Tory Burch tunic is your perfect basic embroidered and embellished version, and is the perfect length for pairing with a pair of shorts. For a more daring look, this fringed tunic by J. Crew is funky without looking too fancy for daytime, and I’m loving the Moroccan feel of this coin-embellished tropical print one by Tibi, both available at Net-a-Porter. If you’re willing to embrace the sheer trend that’s so hot for summer, this Plenty by Tracy Reese smocked tunic is sparkly and gorgeous over a tank or cropped cami!
