Posted on February 8th, 2008 by Corine in aeropostale, boden, piperlime, urban outfitters

Because we base our retailer choices on factors other than just brand recognition - we’d like to introduce you to our newest retailers and give you just a little more insight as to why we’ve added them to our growing family of merchants. This time around, we’re highlighting some of the brightest stars in the apparel industry…


What can we say about Boden? We think their eco-friendly scrumptious, soft-as-a-feather baby wear will soothe any infant! Their men and women’s lines are splendid, too, with a subtle European flair that sets this line apart. All Boden clothing and footwear is exclusively designed in London, England and provides a conservative yet contemporary look for trendsetters internationally. We especially like their cool separates!

You’ll be amazed at the vibrancy and energy of all Piperlime products. Their shoes virtually jump off their homepage! Piperlime, a division of Gap, Inc., is a new online shoe shop, offering a handpicked selection of the world’s best footwear brands for women, men and kids. Piperlime’s assortment of more than 100 amazing footwear brands features the hottest styles and designers. Ranging from sassy flats to glamorous stilettos that will have all eyes on you…this website and its products bring a whole new meaning to the term “shoe addicts” everywhere!


If you are shopping for a 14-17 year old you can’t do better than AĆ©ropostale! This specialty retailer of casual apparel and accessories principally targeting teens offers a selection of high-quality, active-oriented fashion. Their knits are available in multiple colors ranging from Black to Pineapple to Bleach and are great for a day at the boardwalk or a day in class. AĆ©ropostale takes athletic trend basics and turns up the volume with colors! We love them!

We also love their Teens For Jeans program in conjunction with Do Something - a youth oriented organization that encourages volunteerism and strongly believes that young people have the power to make a difference and change the world. Their aim is to inspire, support and celebrate a generation of do-ers: people who see the need to do something, believe in their ability to get it done, and then take action.


Where else can you find the perfect bedroom pillow, the edgiest jeans and hottest accessories that scream urban chic?! The reason for their success? The brand is both compelling and distinctive. The emphasis is on creativity. The products are fun and inspiring with great prints that are delicate with a twist. They have an underground style that takes trend setting to a new level. Their goal is to offer a product assortment and an environment so compelling and distinctive that the customer feels an empathetic connection to the brand and is persuaded to buy. We certainly do!
