what makes a classic a classic?

oxford button-down shirts, levi’s jeans, white cotton t-shirts, baseball caps, bomber jackets, little black dresses, striped french sailor shirts, a string of pearls, navy blazers, trench coats, gold hoop earrings, cartier tank watches, ray ban sunglasses, cashmere cardigans, loafers…

it’s an old friend with a new twist…a clunkier heel, perhaps? an animal-print pattern? it doesn’t matter – whatever makes you kick up your heels…

you buy it for what it’s always been: a familiar shape that seems to weather time and is always just a comfortable reach away in your closet…
you buy it for what it lets you be: yourself…

a classic classic? it is dependable, time-less, and tamper-proof…yet open to reinterpretation…
