Your Fall Wardrobe Starts Here

    There was a chill in the air this morning!  As the cool weather starts to creep in, we are left with the “What do I wear?” dilemma.  For many of us, it was reminiscent of a full blown Fall morning when we started our daily commute.  This is the time of year when we look at our closets and must get creative - what pieces will transition well for me?

    It’s the season for dresses!  While it’s not quite time to pack it in and pull out your pants collection, it’s time to make the most out of your dresses.  A dress can easily be layered to suit your needs.  Pop on a sweater or jacket. or add tights or socks, and boots.  Here are 4 types of dresses, easily found at any Greene Street, that will make your days much easier.

  1. The knit dress.  This dress is amazing because it will keep you warm, but with its bodycon shape and amazing color and print you won’t need to do much else to it.  Just pull it on and out you go!

  2. The knee-length dress.  Drop your hemline but keep your cool.  The Fall color palette in this dress will signal that you are embracing the change of season.  But the colorblocking and the pleats elongate your body.  Feel free to sport flats or dress it up with heels.  Add a sweater to take the chill off.

  3. The top trend right now is front-button denim.  Rock prairie chic in this denim dress!  It’s so easy to layer - pair sneakers or a leather jacket with this.  Feel free to belt it or add a scarf.  It’s vintage inspired but totally modern in functionality.

  4. The black and white dress.  This dress looks easy-breezy but it’s actually a heavier ponti knit.  The design is super chic and will keep you looking fab until you figure out which Fall colors to commit to.  Layer up your jewelry and add tights and booties for your work look.

    While the dresses will vary, all of our Greene Street locations currently have the Marlyn Schiff jewelry featured!

Get The Scoop on a New Greene Street!

 

As you all of have noticed over the past week, we moved our West Chester store.  For 5 years we had made a home in the neighborhood on W Market Street.  Then an opportunity presented itself for something bigger and better.  A luscious space opened up just a block over on W Gay Street.  We jumped at the chance - a bigger space can only benefit our customers and consignors!  We at Greene Street feel that the move will allow us to be more well known in the community.  And the more well known that we become, the more we can continue to help the community.  Basically, more floor space and more general traffic = more clothing recycled.  What could possibly be better?

Last Wednesday, June 24 our headquarters crew headed down to make the switch.

So we said goodbye to one of our favorite Instagram buddies and began to pack up!

Oh the possibilities!

We began to attract a lot of attention as we moved racks upon racks of clothing.  A nice little preview for our new neighbors!

As soon as we hung our new sign, customers kept coming in to inquire who we were and see what we have to offer.

It took 8 hours, but we got everything up and running!

Meet your West Chester team! Manager, Jaycine and associates Stephanie and Amanda.

And although we said goodbye to our graffiti man, when I ventured into the new basement, I was greeted by this odd photo.

The Chamber of Commerce, joined by mayor Carolyn Comitta, and Fig welcomed us with warm arms and a ribbon cutting ceremony today, July 1st.  It was so much fun!

It's not an official ribbon cutting without the regulation sized scissors!

Even our ribbon was green!

It's been a very busy week for our West Chester team.  Our headquarters crew though, well, we get to do it all over again when we open our new store in Wayne, PA - coming this Fall!
