What to Wear: Music Festival Edition

This weekend I'll be one of the thousands to attend Jay-Z's Made in America music festival in Philadelphia. I couldn't be more excited--great music right in our backyard! However, I'm completely stumped as to what I should wear to this two day music fest featuring artists like Run DMC, Santigold, Passion Pit, Pearl Jam, and many more. So I turned to Arcadia for a little inspiration...

  Very very very soft. Two separate lace designs, joined at the middle with a ruffled elastic waistline. Straight sleeves, a binded neckline and all hems with the curve of the lace. Fully lined in a contrasting nude. Mixed laces with 100% silk lining.

Arcadia Designer Spotlight: ace & jig

Welcome the newest addition to Arcadia, ace & jig! Started by Cary Vaughan and Jenna Wilson, they're goal was to produce a seasonless women's collection.

Atelier Striped Shirt

 "A fabric that could lead many lives, and tell many stories. We wanted to create effortless clothes where the fabric could speak for itself. "-- ace & jig

Field Jacket

After making their way to India where the ladies drew much inspiration, they also partnered with a manufacturer who not only works with an ancient hand loom on site, but also takes great care of its community!

Fall Turnaround Dress

 

"We wanted to manipulate this cloth into aesthetically beautiful yet functional items. Accessible clothes that are not overstyled, pieces that you keep forever and love. Our silhouettes hope to be quintessential pieces that live and travel with you." -- ace & jig 

 Stop by Arcadia and check out all the great finds we have from ace & jig!

Arcadia Designer Spotlight: Seven Blooms

 Seve Blooms is an eco-friendly, local brand that has surely become a favorite amongst us at Arcadia! These lovely dresses just arrived in store, and it's been hard to keep them there!

SevenBlooms' multi-strand beaded necklace is the ultimate accessory. I can say from personal experience, that this necklace will get you noticed. I've had strangers stop me on the street to ask about it! The good news is it comes in many different colors, the not-so-good news is that they sell out fast!

Be sure to stop in and check out all the SevenBlooms merchandise found only at Arcadia!
