THE REFORMATION

NYC's Lower East Side is a haven for shopping in independently owned, styled and truly bad ass boutiques—gratefully I lived in the heart of it. The Reformation was my go to, for a night out, special occasion or just had too frozen margaritas next door and needed some retail therapy. Alexa Chung recently did a shopping guide of the area with Lucky magazine and here are some snaps of the occasion.

For those moments and the others that come between I've found a special spot that both coasts have access to. Reformation, named for the reforming of vintage fabrics, finds and goods to stylize the modern Courtney Love to Audrey Hepburn in all of us. Beautiful tailoring, unique patterns and cuts with a bit of a deconstructed edge.

Here are a few shots I took at the LA shop at 142 N. La Brea Ave (the Manhattan shop in is the LES on Ludlow between Rivington and Stanton):
