Santana Row spring fashion show: wearing Calypso St. Barth

 in Bay Area Fashion / Events  tagged calypso st barth / outfits / santana row / summer 2013 by

The Santana Row fashion show took place on June 1, 2013 and I was honored to wear a gifted outfit from the Row’s newest, chicest retailer, Calypso St. Barth. This amazing shop features clothing and accessories which take their inspiration from the island paradise. Coincidentally, we have such warm weather here in the San Francisco Bay Area, the clothing and accessories from Calypso St. Barth work perfectly with our climate and “California Casual” style. They even feature lightweight cashmere cardigans which are chic and perfect for when the fog rolls in! I have my eye on this one.

The clothing is made from lightweight, high quality and breathable materials including silk, linen and cotton. There are also items from local designers and products with a charitable cause.

I have already washed the skirt and top and they held up well. Both pieces look brand new; as if they had never been washed! Love that! As someone who values high quality fabrics and construction, I am thrilled to have Calypso St. Barth so close to my house. I have also purchased a few pieces from the store and cannot wait to wear them! If you are local to the San Francisco Bay Area, there is a Calypso St. Bath store at Larkspur Landing, Stanford Shopping Center and of course, Santana Row! If you are not local, please visit CalypsoStBarth.com and you can either shop online or find a store in your area. You will love their boutique!
