Transition in Style with Our Fashion-Forward Pieces!

Saturday, August 14th, 2010

Though we’re still in the thick of Summer, Fall isn’t exactly far behind.  This is why we at Off Broadway Boutique thought that this would be the perfect time to introduce the pieces that can be worn through the changing season.  After all, you shouldn’t be stuck in something that is too heavy for a hot day or too flimsy for a cool day.  With our choice picks from the Dilemma collection and our Turkish-style pieces, you definitely won’t miss out on being the most fabulously-fashioned forty-something of either season!

One way to feel fantastic in any size is by slipping on our posh poet blouse.  A fresh new take on the classic piece, this Dilemma one-button shirt boasts a wide collar that gives way to a slightly-ruched bottom.  Each roomy ¾ sleeve showcases a sharp French cuff that contrasts with the easy fit of the roomy silhouette.  With a straight hem and a split on each side to allow for extra space, this shirt would look wonderful with a simple camisole and a dark pair of jeans.  What’s more; this one-size-fits-most piece comes in an array of colors that work well with your Summer or Fall fashion palette!

Should you decide that you want to jazz up our poet blouse, our Turkish necklace is just the thing that will bring the sizzle to your style.  One of the treasures that the Countess of Glamour brought back from her travels in Turkey, this brass masterpiece possesses the regal pizzazz that is reminiscent of the Grand Empire.  Consisting of a chain necklace that leads to two medium-sized teardrop pieces that are each adorned with a dark red teardrop stone that is surrounded by tiny round rubies, a huge two-tone centerpiece boasts a round red stone that is cradled by tiny round rubies.  Oval stones surround the centerpiece stone, making it a wonderful embellishment for your classic look.  This one-of-a-kind necklace’s rustic style allows a versatility that works very well for both Summer and Fall.

On the other hand, if your taste leans more towards the traditional, you will find that our men’s style shirt will do the trick. Also a part of the Dilemma collection, this piece is available in both linen and silk in various colors so that you’ll be able to choose any one to fit your Summer or Fall mood. Designed in a one-size-fits-most silhouette as well, it showcases a huge breast pocket on the right and a classic hem that adds character to a simple look.  A mandarin collar and ¾ folded-up sleeves guarantee that this stylish shirt will look gorgeous with leggings and a belted waist.  More of a late Summer piece than a Fall staple, it’s a great choice for the beautiful baby-boomer who loves to stroll around town!

What’s the perfect way to complement our classic men’s style shirt, you ask?  We believe that our black Turkish style neckpiece is the ideal addition to your terrific transitional look.  After all, it possesses the ethnic flavor that adds flair to your style without overpowering your Summer-to-Fall style!  Also brought in from Turkey by the Countess of Glamour, this must-have crocheted piece boasts multicolored tassels that are decorated with ribbed silver coins at each base. Each fluffy tassel adds a versatile allure to whatever outfit you pair this one-size-fits-most piece with – a perfect attribute in a transitional accessory.
