First things first: You want sale? You got a sale! SKIRT FLIRT, BETTER SWEATER, AND JACKET RACKET! All long skirts, handknit sweaters, and a ton of medium-weight jackets are now on a progressive sale at vive la femme, starting with 40% off all the way to 90% off! Labels include Comfy, Zen Knits, and Pure Handknit. Let the games begin!

Lots of great daywear and workwear and here and ready to rock and roll. Gunning for that promotion or off to a crucial interview? Then check out these new long cardigans from igigi perfect to punch up simple trousers and a clean tank. This piece comes in rich chocolate brown, sleek authoritative black, and bold purple. Pair with the new trousers from Comfy, also in this image, for a fabulous look that conveys an undeniable dose of curvaceous confidence. Also, check this 50’s shirtdress out! A classic design in a timeless silhouette, this dress is made from a wonderful stretch material that conforms to curves to really show contour and shape. Can’t you just see this with some pearls and kitten heels? VERY Mrs. Cunningham, this.

Need some weekend options that are both stylish and ultra-comfortable? Look no further than this structured hooded jacket from vive la femme favorite, Comfy USA. Popped with a darling hoodie detail, the belted design and rich fabric impart this piece with an upscale sense of weekend chic. We also unpacked a round of our awesome crinkle tanks and tunic hoodies, both if which feel like
pajamas and travel like a dream. Colorways include periwinkle, olive, and black for the hoodie, and apple green and periwinkle for the tank.

Denim, denim…come and GET ‘EM! Enjoy two new styles from NYDJ, a dressy deep indigo trouser cut and an ultratrendy bootcut in a soft, lightweight spring denim. The deep blue features a nigh waist to fit fuller bellies, while the gray pair is more of a midrise to accommodate smaller waists and womanly hips. Gorgeous! We were really excited to see these and Amanda took the gray pair but immediately.

Finally, we have some new “cheap-n-chic” options from LA-based label, Mai Tai! The staff-fave “flippy skirt” is available once again, and here is a new babydoll dress in a fresh purpley-blue. Happy and swishy, the neckline and bodice offer girly detailing and the length can translate to a dress for shorter gals and a versatile tunic for those with longer legs. This piece also comes in a neutral taupe and of course basic black.
