I notice in reviewing some recent blogs that I use alot of the dot, dot, dot (aka…)
If anyone finds this annoying, I apologize…

As promised, the spring clothing is arriving at LIV – new deliveries everyday! One of my favourite lines this season is L.A Made. In addition to a FABULOUS (and well-priced) collection of cozy cotton/modal tanks & tees in an awesome range of colours, L.A Made has designed a stunning collection of fashion pieces for spring and summer. I’ll just let these pictures do the talking…

Greetings from the ‘Mile High’ city, where the sun is brighter and the sky is bluer. (True. There’s less water vapour in the air a mile above sea level so it really is blindingly bright over here.) What’s this all got to so with LIV and shopping? Nothing. I don’t even have a clever segue.
I’m not even here on LIV related business.

But I do feel like chatting about NUMPH!. I LOVE Numph! It’s a really cool clothing line from Denmark with a great story behind it. It all began when a wealthy businessman gave seven young, creative women – all fashion designers – a big WAD of money and encouraged them to create the type of clothes they wished to wear themselves. They were given total freedom with their designs and you can really see their spontenaiety and creativity in each piece of clothing. Numph collections are always ecclectic, edgy and quirky. We sold out of the Numph spring collection in ONE WEEK. The ‘Numphs’ are true artists:
“Our dream was to create a brand from scratch which is different and stronger simply
because nümph sums up our experiences and creativity: cutting edge, twisted, feminine and rough, vulnerable and strong.” – the ‘numphs’

Christel black skirt $70!!

Green heart sweater $129

Now it feels like winter! I have a love-hate relationship with snow. I love it when it’s falling and fresh and twinkly and I’m all cozy inside. The rest of the time I hate it. My five-year-plan is to open a LIV by Au Lit in L.A, mainly so I can spend lots of time in California from January to April.

I’m going to keep this brief because I have to start packing for a 2-week trip to Colorado. I just wanted to mention my favourite winter jacket this season. It’s the Tiny Tim jacket by BENCH and it comes in teaberry (hot new colour), black and white. And it’s only $185! Check it out on our very own Alia.
