Black Trench

This is the trench in basic black.  It does have a certain amount of swagger, doesn't it?  The touch of silver grommets separate it from the ordinary.  

Check them out on the cape back and at the top of the coat.  The scarf is silk, and is a copy of a painting by Wassily.  How beautiful is that?

Dark Green Tunic

This thick tunic of an almost indescribable color is the answer for those fast approaching cold days. The sleeves are fitted to the elbows and then flare to the waist.  The clean lines of the v-neckline can be accented in your own individual way.  

Here we tucked in a gorgous silk, applique scarf.  

Boots available at Mr. Shoe in the Joyce Skylight Court.

Black/Green Stripe Top

Sometimes we like to dress in something nice and easy.  When that happens, toss on this oversized top decorated with a zig/zag pattern.

Leggings are the skinny of this appealing look.  

The necklace is a go-with-everything hand-crafted concoction.

Black/Brown Satin Top

We see the shimmer of satin in this tunic that combiines brown and black for a sophisticated approach  to color.  A ruched belt in brown circles her waist, but can be left off on another occasion.

 It's worn with black pants, heels and gold earrings.  That's all you need for success.

Blue Tunic

This elegant tunic is created in a fine Italian knit.  The flared hemline is decorated with a sophisticated pointelle design.  Beneath a plain black tie, with long sleeves.  

The pale blue hue of the tunic shows us the power of pastel.

Vest - Red Crochet

Fashion moves in a circle.  Do you remember the long vests we wore some time ago?  This one is of rich red crochet that closes in a single tie.  

We chose NOT to include any jewelry here - so we can show off the pattern of the crochet. What else did we pair with it?  a black long-sleeve top, leggings and boots from Mr. Shoe.

Purple Top, Purple Leggings

What's not to love?  It's purple followed by a small ruffled nest of mesh on a sheer chiffon panel that extends to the bottom of the hips.

You can belt it or not with the self-tie.

Claire chose to bring it a little closer with a tie to the back.  With it, wonderful patterned leggings that are fleece-lined for the cold weather ahead.

Royal Sweater / Scarf

Brilliant royal blue compliments everyone!  This furry fabric is very new this year, and it is comfortable and super-soft.  


The design is simple, so we are using a gorgous silk scarf - that's done in a copy of the painting "The Scream" by Edvard Munch.



The colors are beautiful and it's very special.

Barcelona Top

Sometimes we want something uncomplicated to wear.  This top is the answer.  The lines are the familiar classic sweater style, but the accents are unusual and appealing.  

A dark background is highlighted with the word "Barcelona" so if you can't go there, you can wear it. Leggings and Boots bring it up to current fashion in a snap!

George Boucle Jacket, Blk Leggings, Multi Scarf.

The color of this sweater is difficult to describe.  It's kind of gray with a greenish cast - anyway it goes with whatever you wear with it.  It's created in a nice easy designwith wide dalmon sleeves, and just enough fringes to make it fun.  A great scarf is tossed over it. 

And below is a new feature we're trying here at Alanatude. An excerpt from our Fall Fashion Event, featuring today's Alanatude Outfit.

The Greatest Show on KK!

Sunday was the long-awaited Alana Women's Apparel Fashion Show.  The Joyce Parker Productions theater was transformed into a sparkling runway, and the enthusiastic audience welcomed the new fashions for 2013.  Here are a few views from the show's finale which had the whole audience clapping along, and one last look at our models.  Yes, we had fun!

There will be more close-up descriptions of the outfits in the coming week. For now, we're just savoring the enthusiasm of our models and our audience.
In addition to Alana's offerings, our models stepped out in the latest footwear from Mr. Shoe, located in the Joyce Skylight Court across from Alana. 

Our 12 models getting their Alanatude on!

Alanatude, indeed!

After the show, we all went across the street for the Alana and Mr. Shoe Shopping Experience.

Music at the reception was provided by A.L.Williams, and an acoustic version of his band "One Lane Bridge".  Who's got it good? We do!

Hope to see you soon at Alana Women's Apparel. Get your Alanatude here!
