Behind the Scenes: Holiday Book Edition

Now that you all (hopefully) have checked out the Holiday book we worked to bring you last week, I wanted to play show and tell a bit and share some "making of" type pics from some of the time spent working on it. All courtesy of our friends over at Dynastee.

Work and play, on the same day.

A Transitional Time

Hey dudes. Things are really picking up here over at The Co-Op. We're updating all things digital for your lovely consumption and building some beautiful new goods. Just can't wait to share! 

This is the first photo set we've done since I did you-know-what, so I hope you all likey.

The look I've got going on today is actually one that I styled for my evening at the opening show for Chicago's Fashion Focus (sans 14" bow attached to my head).  The look was pretty popular, and landed me as the feature image in Ebony Magazine's Style section and pictured on NBC Chicago. Whoa boy!

I'm wearing my current absolute favorite piece from The Co-Op. It's a winterized Wyly top in white jacquard.  The material is ultra heavy and gives structure to an otherwise flowing top.

And the texture is out of control amazing. Not just because I picked it out either... it really is fantastically soft and roomie.

Oh, and of course there's the back buttons.  This time around, it's paired with gold dome buttons.  Luxe, yes? And somehow perfect to dress up with a suiting skirt, or down with a pair of boyfriend jeans and booties.

And the line it creates with the body with a fitted bottom... it really has me hooked as my fall/winter go-to.

Last day for Lloyd Dress Sale

Tonight at 12am (eastern) is your last chance to order the Lloyd Dress at half off for Look of the Week! You'll be hard pressed to find this look at the same price again, so if you haven't ordered yet- you know what to do this evening.

It's that time of the year...

I don't know too much about football, but I do know how to support my team (can I get a Go Blue?)! In anticipation and celebration for the first game of the season this weekend, this version of the Lloyd Dress is The Style Cooperative's Look of the Week, meaning it's half price for one week only (through Wednesday of next week).

This is one of those versatile pieces that can take you from Saturday shopping straight to tailgate in style. The stretch gives you a little wiggle room, and the fabric makes it feel a little refined.  

Meet Adlin, a big supporter of The Co-Op and member of the Freelance Brigade.  She's making a special trip back to University of Michigan to cheer her team on in classic Co-Op style with the Lloyd Dress in canary and stripes.  If you happen to run into her at the game, tell her you recognize her from the blog, and she'll give you a discount code good for anything by The Style Cooperative.

Clothes and sports? Now that's multitasking.
