I was so excited for my first boutique run with Brynn last week. We had some mid-season orders to drop off and a few new boutiques that we wanted to check out first hand. It makes such a huge difference seeing the boutiques in person vs. online. Jayne boutique has been on our list for … Continue reading

What to Wear: Office Chic
Well I guess that can really depend on the environment? However, between you and me, whether it’s a law office or a fashion magazine you can’t go wrong with a colorful fall dress. Yes, I love the typical office-appropriate pencil skirt, white button-down or old-school tweed, all in some form of black, of course, but … Continue reading
What to Wear: Festival Fun
Long hot days listening to music definitely call for comfort. But as we all know, that can mean different things to different age groups. Although I check the 40-50 box, I still like to get my festival fun outfits ready! Unlike many of the 20-30 year olds, I don’t like to dress like the generation … Continue reading
What to Wear: On a Hot Day
Rompers and wristlets make a great summertime combo! One of the things I love about Chicago is summertime! Starting from Memorial Day Weekend through mid-October (my favorite month), there are events happening every weekend in the city. But in Chicago we have a saying “If you don’t like the weather, wait five minutes!” So you … Continue reading
A day in the life of a new Brynn Capella intern
I just began my spring internship with the charming Brynn Capella. I’m a fashion business major at Columbia College Chicago and I am focusing on learning more about fashion merchandising within the Brynn Capella empire. I’m only two weeks in and I’ve already learned so much of the inner workings of a small independent brand, … Continue reading
Suede and Synergy.
There are a ton of exciting things happening in the Brynn Capella studio! Not only are we prepping the line sheets for our Spring 2017 collection to show to retailers, but we have also officially finalized our Fall 2017 leathers. Picking the leathers has been a unique challenge. There were a few times that we believed we had finally … Continue reading
Where Rustic Style Meets Modern Life
Yep you guessed it, it’s Nashville! Needless to say, I was so excited to go to there to visit my sister, and of course check out the Tennessee fashion scene. Since I’ve been working with Brynn, I’ve noticed a lot more goes into creating a season than just picking out colors. For the last few weeks we’ve … Continue reading
What to Wear: Retro Style
The key is to not look like you never left the 70’s… Styles and trends come and go over the years. But I feel like we always embrace some part of the 60’s and 70’s style. The “Over the Knee” boots originated back in the 60’s, and are back in a big way. I will … Continue reading
Small Town to Big City
When you think of expression, what comes to your mind? To me the first word is fashion. Just the idea of being able to express yourself through clothes and accessories is truly amazing. Growing up in a small town and going to a small private school, fashion was never something that anyone really paid attention … Continue reading
What to Wear: Lust Worthy
Yes that usually means it’s expensive, but it doesn’t have to be. That’s all relative because expensive doesn’t have to mean not worth it either. As I’ve gotten older, I realize that it’s worth it to spend a pretty penny on lust worthy items that will stand the test of time or will get a great cost … Continue reading
