Apiece Apart SS13

I have an impossible amount of favourited blogs in my bookmarks. I decided to glance back at some of them and weed out those that were questionable choices at the time of clicking that little + sign. Those that didn't grab my attention from the first or second post were quickly deleted; however, there were a few that kept me scrolling. On one particular blog, I found a post on the 'Apiece Apart' Spring Summer 2013 collection. It's too gorgeous, and everything I'm in love with right now. I can't actually describe it better than they have themselves on their website:

"APIECE APART is a line of elevated basics – building block pieces that are as versatile as the woman wearing them. The label is brought to life through clean lines, chic, simple shapes, impeccable tailoring and beautiful fabrics. It balances the simple with the sophisticated. The classic with the modern.  

APIECE APART was born during a trip to West Texas for the designers’ 30th birthdays. Inspired by the austere and beautiful landscape, Starr Hout and Laura Cramer conceived of a simplified wardrobe, one that could be packed into a single bag - simple items that could be mixed and matched to go anywhere and do anything.

APIECE APART’s SS13 collection creates a space where Scandinavia and Japan meet. The collection mixes Danish modernism with the imperfect, raw edges of Wabi Sabi.  The cool and modern combine with the warm and natural. Modern silhouettes are presented in natural fabrics and classic silhouettes are reimagined in forward fabrics. SS13 features Italian technicals, Spanish burlaps with crisp, clean cottons. "

Simple, natural, casual-cool. I am officially obsessed. You could call me plain and boring, but I just love spending money on things that I know I will still love in five years time and will be wearing at least a few times a week. My must-find item for Summer is a linen, camel blazer - I crumble at the thought.
