Each Wednesday we’ll answer the on-going question: “What do I wear with these?”  It’s a question we get quite often here at the shop and we love giving suggestions when helping our customers. This week we feature the OHW? Blythe.

What to Wear with: OHW? Blythe

This week we are featuring a fresh take on the typical boat shoe. OHW? (WHO?) Blythe boat moc has a blown-EVA sole which makes it lightweight and extremely comfortable. The perfect pairing for your casual attire and definitely a step up from your sneakers. Wear them with bermudas and a short sleeve striped shirt for a warm summer day.  Alternatively, you could pair them with your favorite chinos and linen shirt, or black slim jeans and a white t-shirt giving you a smooth, laid back look.

Featured re-souL items:

> OHW? Blythe boat mocassin in Black and grey leather.
> Will Leather Goods “Otto” bag in brown leather.
> Alessi TXC wristwatch white face with black leather band.

A complimentary color to almost anything, yellow brightens up our spirits and boosts our moods instantly. This season yellow has been shown on the runways in different shades, from the palest hue to the brightest of neons. We love yellow when worn with white, but yellow also looks great with navy and grey too. For a fresh twist, wear it with mint green or turquoise. Could you use a dose of sunshine? How about a little yellow?

Featured re-souL items:

> Miz Mooz Presley wood wedge sandal in tobacco/lemon.
> Vialis 5390 suede lace-up flat, made in Spain.
> Sixty Seven Vivian Wedge in lemon, made in Spain.

Mondays, Maggie Muses: A Real Living Room

Hi, I’m Maggie. My husband (Legh) and I own re-souL.   I like to “muse” about things that inspire me.  Especially on Mondays.

As I stare into what technically is supposed to be our living room, I get overwhelmed on how to change it into my dream space.  Right now its just a couple of nice armchairs and smack in the middle, a pup tent leftover from my son’s birthday party.  Did I mention that his birthday was months ago? I dare not move it, as he has turned it into his own personal library/reading room.  Anything that encourages “reading” in my book is a good thing, pun intended.

However, if I ever get inspired to change our situation, these are the living rooms that I would aspire to have:

Modern yet Elegant


Open and Clean


Retro Inspired


Eclectic and Comfortable


Artfully Curated


Hmm, I am starting to see a trend here. Oh well, guess I have to live with the pup tent a bit longer.  All images via Pinterest.

Proud to Present: Iris Guy Design

re-souL is proud to present a closer look at Iris Guy Design.  Iris who is originally from Israel but now a Seattle local, didn’t start out as a jewelry artist.  Although you would never think that looking at her vast collection of beautiful pieces.

Originally she studied to be a graphic designer at the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem.  Perhaps it was her early training with shapes and lines that got her to this point in her life designing jewelry.  “Each individual piece is handmade, culled from unspoken desires and organic forms, playful rock shapes and architectural forms.” Iris works mostly with silver.  Some pieces are polished for a high shine effect and others are oxidized giving the silver a black matte finish.

Starting small,  as the popularity of her personal collection grew, so did her line, eventually becoming her full time passion.  Today the Iris Guy collection can be found in fine boutiques and galleries around the world.  re-souL is just happy to have seen her evolve and grow from the start!

Blue was shown all over the runways for this spring, ranging from pale aqua to deep indigo. An easy color to wear and pull off gracefully. Especially when it comes to your feet. Its timeless qualities and beautiful shades make it a highly appealing color trend. Perfect to add a pop of color to your tried and true denim. Of course, a little imagination wouldn’t hurt either. So get a little out of your comfort zone and wear some blue.
