New this week!

We don't know about you, but we are so ready for this hot and humid weather to end! The best part about fall is the clothes after all! Oh wait, and the leaves...But in any case, Rue 14 has the goods to get fall started right in the boho chicness that is this moment.


First up [ladies first] we have this great Military Ruffle jacket from Free People. Impeccably detailed and edgy, it'll fit right into the dark palettes of this fall. We also have a slew of new jeans from Rich & Skinny, such as the boyfriend jeans pictured here.












Next, Free People's Cool Sparkle Dress will look so fresh at night it's ridonkulous. Wear it alone or pair it with some great leggings and you're ready to hit it and quit it! If you haven't noticed by now, we are addicted to Free People because they just know how to do the damn thing. Ya heard?













This fall we just started to carry this great brand for men, Ever. With an eclectic eco-industrial look, these clothes fit and feel a-mazing!

Pictured here is the Melrose tee in Dirty White. It not only looks great...it feels like unicorn hair and rainbows ~ it is so soft! F'reals!











Finally, Ever presents us with their Beachwood Hoodie in Chocolate Cherry in the most comfortable sweatshirt we have ever felt. It is paired with the Jacksonville jean that is not only the perfect fit but so lightweight you barely notice they are there. That's how the peeps over at Ever roll, and we love it!

Property Of

Available at Rue 14: 1803A 14th St NW; U Street; 202.462.6200

There's a long tradition of one artist finishing another's work: Raffaello rounded out Michelangelo's The Creation of Man, while Spielberg rounded out Kubrick's Man's Creation of Cloying Android Gigolos. Finishing up each other's sweet bags, Property Of.

Just arrived in DC, Property's just-dropped Fall/Winter line is carefully constructed by a Singapore-based duo who trade off either starting or finishing each piece in order to keep the creative juices flowing, even though spilling one drop of those juices on the sidewalk is punishable by murderous caning. New models include the washed-cotton Carter Sling and Carter Big Tote, each with adjustable heavy cotton shoulder strap, large zip pockets, and leather trim; the waxed-cotton Joe Day and Joe Cycle, each with cotton twill lining and a concealed flap zip-pocket; and the nylon-twill lined, leather-strapped Alfie Book Bag, available in either coated cotton jacquard or “oiled denim”, regrettably edged out by “The Rippers” for Uncle Jesse's band name. Also just released is a collection inspired by the aesthetic of the "average guy" in different fashion capitals, like the Army-brown, wax-cloth Guy New York, the shiny bronze, nylon/polyester Guy Paris, the “wet look” blue/brown suede Guy Tokyo, and the heavy black nylon Guy Berlin with a large, concealed front-zip pocket for holding leather masks and monkeys...you know, average Berlin guy stuff. Go ahead, touch it.

Not everyone's a bag guy, so Property's also got a slew of wallets, cardholders, and pouches, most carrying oddly simplistic monikers like "Ben", "Phil", and "Ed", with the outlier being "G. Love", from which you can draw cyber-credits to pay for Jude Law's special robot sauce.

So many bags, so little to do at work... Check 'em out at PropertyOf.com.
