Stacia Goes Baja for Spring


Spring is knocking at the door even IF the groundhog says we have 6 more weeks of Winter (boo hoo!) But like any true fashionista, weather has never stopped us from enjoying Spring fashion in February. Die-hards will endure 6 more weeks of chill while wearing their favorite Spring looks all for the sake of fashion.

My solution at Stacia is to design transitional pieces that will actually keep you a bit warmer and still let you flaunt happy Spring colors. My new Baja-inspired collection features a slightly heftier 12 gauge bamboo/cotton knit (perfect weight for wear-now territory) in earthy, beachy colors. And it's not all spacedye either. My new knitting technique plays around with the textured look of tweed with a mix of two colors for a flecked effect, and bits of my signature spacedye pop up in unexpected places.

A few of my favorite pieces in the Baja group are the sexy lace-up flutter dress in Waterfall (aahhh...the color of the ocean) and the baja hoodie, which is my take on the Mexican striped baja tunics - my version forgoes the itchy woven fabric and lets you wrap up instead in comfy, soft bamboo/cotton. And let's not forget the vibrant Ocean chevron vee top. It's eye-popping color and flattering chevron-striped body is the perfect go-to top this Spring.
