Going green.

Mar 10, 2010

Share the luck this St. Patrick's Day and save some friends from run-by pinching. Moxsie is equipped with more gangs of green than you can shake a shalale at.

Alley Collection James Army Jacket MoxsieFrolick Jewelry Dome Bird Necklace charm Moxsie jewelry pendant

Alley Collection James Army Jacket
This year everyone's predicting muted colors, which means you may as well add a more versatile green to your closet with Alley Collection outerwear. Consistent with predictions of utility-heavy details, the James Army Jacket is completely inspired by military cuts.

Frolick Jewelry Dome Bird Necklace
For those who are shy of bright, bold colors, the kelly green in Frolick Jewelry's Dome Bird Necklace should be small enough that it should attract luck instead of scaring onlookers away. Great for layering, or for the girl who wants just a touch of charm in her pendants. Much of designer Adrienne Lee Wiley's line is easy-to-wear, jeans-ready jewelry.

The Hundreds Johnson Mid olive black red sneaker low topHellz Bellz Moxsie Stakes are High Button Up plaid shirt

The Hundreds Johnson Mid - Olive/Black/Red
One of the surest ways to enjoy a St. Patrick's pinch backfiring is to wear your green subtly on your shoes. Then, after That Annoying Guy in the Office pinches you, you get 'im back real good and say "Surprise, my feet are green." The Hundreds' low-profile sneakers hide well under baggy jeans, but with the Olive Mids' contrast lacing and sole details, they can stand out if you want them to.

Hellz Bellz Stakes are High Button-Up - Emerald
Hellz Bellz is all about the statement-making bigger picture with surprise details. The Stakes are High Button-Up actually features subtle gold threading throughout the interweaving colors in the plaid. This top is of a more fitted cut, wth contrasting grey corners at the collar.

Ear Candy

Feb 19, 2010

Sometimes it's a shame when one of the most exposed parts of the body is left bare. Doth the ear not deserve accessories? Are not earrings flattering accoutrements for almost any face shape? Do we not understand the value of beautiful sound? Of purposeful sound?

Okay, so we just waxed way poetic for a loose theme from last week: Things That Make Your Ears Happy. We received new shipments and refilled stock that many of you have been waiting for for months. Take a look, or lend us an ear!

Moxsie Urbanears Plattan Black headphonesURBANEARS - Back in stock!

Definitely one of our quickest-selling gadgets and probably one of the easiest things to gift. Our Urbanears are back in stock in every color - plus black!

If you're hard-pressed trying to justify another pair of headphones, we like to reason that cup-style headphones warm up your ears. Plus there's the whole earbuds-are-bad-for-you debate. So either you're properly preparing for awaiting the subway in winter, or you're taking preventative measures to protect your hearing for the future. Either way, you win.

That leaves us with the question, "What color?"

Moxsie Nanda Home Gauri Nanda Clocky almond alarm clock

 

NANDA HOME - Your new best frienemy!

Many of us find it hard to wake up and get out of bed in the morning. You know why? Because it is.

It's hard to get out of bed, particulary when you're cozy, there's a threat of blustery weather outside, or you just don't feel like taking on Monday.

You know what would make this all better, though? Having a wake-up buddy. Like a gym buddy, except they make you emerge from your sheets and they smile while they don't take no for an answer.

Meet Clocky, Gauri Nanda's wake-up buddy! We just got Clocky two weeks ago, and they're already selling out. Take note of these little friends - or don't. If you try to ignore Clocky and snooze his alarm, he rolls off your nightstand and swiftly out of reach. You'll just have to get up and find him from there.

But still, at least it's a friend beeping you awake in the morning.

Moxsie Pretty Little Thing Spearhead Earrings Lirany Vasquez

PRETTY LITTLE THING - Fit for big girls and little ladies.

Designer Lirany Vasquez sent us a fun mix of new Pretty Little Thing pieces. They're surprisingly wearable and would go just as well with your dainty frocks as they would with your studded leather jacket.

These Spearhead Earrings have a carefully placed pinch that'll catch the light and make 'em say, "Where'd you get those?"

Also check out our new Potluck Paris pieces - If you think your fingers need more attention than your ears, their latest batch of rings might just get the job done.

Hong Kong Street Style

Feb 12, 2010

The Moxsie team has been globetrotting since last week, with one of us in Hong Kong and a contingent of employees due to touch down in Vegas for MAGIC next week. (Are you going to be there? We'd love to meet you!) Mayka's been doing her best to get a sense of what's been winning Hong Kong residents' fancies - in the most covert snapshotting way possible. (She argues that candid shots of style are just as charming as poised model shots, plus they're that much more natural.)

Been to Hong Kong recently? If not, take a trip with us:

Moxsie Hong Kong street style

Though there are plenty of stylish Hong Kong women dressing from head-to-toe in black, some of the most intriguing outfits combined textiles and pops of color. Obviously, there's an artful way to to mix these things and then there's just the experimental. The woman above, in her basic but still eye-catching black-and-white plaid with bright purple sneakers, did a great job making the street-boho style look effortless and casual. She still looked approachable.

Moxsie Hong Kong street style

Wish we knew what these girls were talking about on the Metro! Our guess is it didn't have anything to do with the girl on the right's black-to-clear thick-rimmed glasses, because they're too awesome to warrant such a look of concern.

The girls below were happily babbling about their latest shopping trip to IFC (one of many huge, huge malls in Hong Kong), and we could only guess if they coordinated their bags with each other or not. Though their purses are blurry in motion in the photo, they each had black-and-white polka dot and stripe detailing that reminded us of Ichi-V's fun print combinations.

Moxsie Hong Kong street style If you're looking for a place to go and are particularly hoping to update your wardrobe, look no further than Hong Kong. With its incredibly global representation of designers and wide array of styles from street market (Haggling required.) to high-end, the only thing to worry about with Hong Kong fashion is being overwhelmed.

Singles Awareness Day

Feb 3, 2010

If the drugstore aisles clad in pink and red are getting to you, you're not alone. Some of us at Moxsie could do without the lace and hearts so that we can just pick up our gummy vitamins in peace. Though we've got our fair share of V-Day gifts worthy of a loved one, we thought it'd be just as pertinent to pull up the best of what it takes to get your single life on.

Urbanears Plattan in Chocolate - For tunin' 'em out.

Hellz Bellz Heartbreaker Knit Jacket - The best revenge on a love long lost is always looking good. We also just so happened to have styled it with the Hellz Bellz Heart on My Sleeve Tee. For the complete "Over It" outfit.

Winning combination: Mini skirts and ankle boots

Jan 19, 2010

When it comes to researching what's trendy and what's going to last, we often look to the streets. Shilpa's been noticing the mini-skirt, ankle boot look coming back. It's so refreshing to see this instead of mini-skirts and Uggs. It elongates ladies' legs, and you know there are throngs of textured tights coming out these days, just begging to add more character to your look.

Moxsie Staff Wish List

Dec 3, 2009

All right. We know. We're spoiled here - checking out new designers and playing with fun clothes. We really can't complain about our work days, except that sometimes it makes picking out our favorites really hard. We all were assigned to pick out our top couple of pieces from all the Moxsie shops a couple of weeks ago, and it took us that long to get to our Moxsie Staff Wish List together!

Memory Moxsie Style: Mimoco

Nov 11, 2009

Mimoco Darth MaulOur Twitter followers have been all, well, a-Twitter about our selection of Mimoco Mimobots. Mimoco has perfectly blended the tech-minded world with a fun pop culture aesthetic. And hey! At 4 GB and 8 GB sizes, they'd make the perfect stocking stuffers. (Yes, it's almost that time of the year.)

Naturally, the most iconic of the geeky gadget designs is our Darth Maul drive, but that's not all we've got. Our other designs feature artwork from the guy who designed the Cranium characters and a handful from the VDC Series that'd make any vinyl collector drool.
