Urban Outfitters recently debuted its first ever bridal collection, entitled BHLDN this past Valentine’s Day.  The brand will showcase wedding gowns, bridesmaid and party dresses, vintage-inspired jewelry, headpieces, shoes, and even lingerie.  Most wedding retailers offer only the typical “matchy matchy” bridesmaid options and standard white gown, however, Urban Outfitters dresses will promise to be timeless, less cliché, and will be offered in fun floral prints keeping with the heirloom feel of the brand.  With prices ranging from $1000–$4000 dollars for wedding gowns and $200–$600 dollars for party attire, dresses will be on par with avearge prices in the category.

By encompassing their vintage style and creating a unique line of wedding attire, Urban Outfitters is not only broadening but holding on to its current consumer market as they move through life experiences.  Bridal and Urban Outfitters, could indeed a match made in indie heaven.

The Charles Philip Shanghai Slipper

by

Originally from Milan, Charles Philip, along with his design partner, moved to Shanghai a few years back.  It was here that the first-ever Charles Philip slipper was designed with a simple pattern inspired by his love of stripes.  The most recent, Spring/Summer 2011 collection is inspired by the ease of a soft slipper, and the crispness of fresh, colorful fabrics.  Most of the slippers come in the standard stripped pattern, but others are more playful — ranging from floral to solids, and patterns of whimsy.  The brand is available in-store at Bloomingdale’s for around $100.
