Tenley D'été

Last summer my CK Bradley Tenley became theee item d'été and I rarely peeled it off my back...

It saw multiple hotel closets...

Gallivanted around NYC...

Celebrated the 4th...

Closed out the summer...

And, wrapped up the post season with a final hurrah in Montauk before heading off for a beverage soaked second life at Furman...

So, when I was having trouble deciding between this year's Tenley offerings, (waxing and waning between the Island Bluebell and the Moroccan Purple, really liking the green best but, knowing it was too much like last years uniform, vetting outside votes for the Island Navy), I picked up my Crackberry and went straight to the big cheese herself; one Camilla "Tenley Makin" Bradley...

"OK. since you wear last years a lot, the island navy is most similar in coloring, but different enough still if you like those colors. i LOVE the island bluebell, and the next option after that would depend if you want more fun, less sophisticated. i am into solid prints these days (shocker) so i would err with the purple moroccan, but you may prefer the island coral....or the island navy." ckb

thanks so much camilla! had just decided on the bluebell so now i feel validated in my choice. moroccan purple was 2nd place. thank you!!! XXOO moi

"ah...great minds. now i want to see pics!" ckb

Ahhh, you want pics? Well, that's all the excuse I need to officially pronounce this "Summer of the Tenley II". Stay tuned for lotsa over wear...

Kindness of Camilla Bradley for taking time out during "selling her tail off" at a Bronxville trunk show to throw me a Tenley lifeline...XXOO Think Babe Would Kill Me If I Got One In Every Color Richardson

PS...Jules Reid will be at Sherman Pickey this Saturday!!!

Her "Fashion is Passion" trunk show will be the place to be from 10am - 6pm so, be there or be square. And very left out...
