We have a great collection of handmade leather wallets and phone cases from Robbie Moto. So stylish and so durable.







Or how about a great journal to write down those brilliant ideas of yours? We've got 3 different sizes journals from RandL that can easily be refilled again and again with moleskin inserts. What's better is it comes with a handy carrying case already attached for your writing utensil. Genius!

Feral Childe is here for Fall!



What a fun delivery! The first fall delivery from Feral Childe arrived today. We love the mix of simple jersey tank and tee dresses great for layering. Wear the dresses now with some great sandals or flats and then when the chill returns layer over fun tights with boots and a cardigan. The twisted pleats top is my favorite in a gorgeous lush blue that would look great with brown or grey. The back of the top has a tie that gives it a little tailored shape. Stop by and see what's new!

New line Judah Ross!



We are so excited about some new arrivals around here at Velouria! The store is filling up with great summer to fall transition pieces and we are so thrilled to represent a new line Judah Ross. Oami, the designer, was one of the founders of Modaspia. She moved from the bay area to the east coast and started her own line. We love the ease and simplicity of her line while is packs a punch of great details and fun textiles. This blouse has a lovely rich print a great match for that pair of boots you need to dust off for fall. We also love this skirt! Worn with thick ribbed tights for fall or right now with strappy sandals and tee. Love having options.


We are also loving the post trunk show arrivals by Una. Great blouses that can be dressed down with jeans or worn to work with a cute pencil skirt. Come on by Velouria and see what we have brought in just for you.

Fall Transition

Fall is right around the corner and as much as we'd like to hold onto (what little) summer we've had in Seattle, it's time to get ready for chilly air and turning leaves.



Check out this reversible jersey dress we have in stock from Portland designer, Varnish Clothing. Royal blue on one side, chocolate brown on the other this dress makes for a great fall layering piece. Wear the cowl in the front or the back, it's like 4 dresses in one! We've paired it with a wooden chevron necklace from local jewelry designer, Amy Bengtson for a pulled together look that would be great for a Sunday market stroll. When it gets cooler, pull it on over a long sleeve tee and tights and add a belt for a fitted shape. The possibilities are endless really.



Local designer Una just dropped off her pre-fall collection and oh man is there some cute stuff in stock. Check out this fitted grey jersey dress with a warm and cozy cowl neck and deep set pockets. We've paired it with Portland jewelry designer, Alisha Louise's color blocked arc necklaces for a polished look that would carry well from day to night. With a dress like this it's easy to look pulled together while still feeling comfortable.

New items are arriving daily! Pop on by, say hello and check out what's new!
