Spirit Animal House, the Mini-Market: Charm School Design, Clarabella, Dangerous Mathematicians, Sodafine
We're super-stoked to announce the stellar mini-market line-up for our little Spirit Animal House event! As one of the main attractions of our "Indie Fashion Lounge", the sexy geniuses below will be live and in person at Pianos on Tuesday night in the swanky upstairs room, swilling a cocktail or two and selling a few of their wares. We've got a nice range of sellers, and ladies of any aesthetic persuasion (and the people who love them) should be able to find a charming addition or two to add to their arsenal of sartorial splendor. Read up on 'em below, check out their websites and contact them if you have any special requests, questions or just want to show them some love. And of course, come to Spirit Animal House this Tuesday at Pianos, where the Lounge kicks off at 8pm upstairs. Bring your fuss, feathers and dancing shoes -- and your wallets, too!
CHARM SCHOOL DESIGN
Who: charm school design: fanciful headwear and jewelry
What's selling at Spirit Animal House: feather and flower headbands and clips, range $25-$75.
Forms of payment accepted: cash or check!
Questions? Requests? Want a sneak peak? charmschooldesign@gmail.com or etsy site: charmschooldesign.etsy.com.
It's always a bit of a risk to say someone's the first to do something, but I reckon that Alita Edgar is certainly one of the feathered headband pioneers -- she's been making them for ages, and her work has recently been featured in the likes of NYLON. Certainly, in a now-crowded field full of cheap or poorly made imitations, Alita's work stands out for its quality and thoughtful design. Anyone I know who worn one of her headbands always gets a huge passel of compliments, they're that charming and unique. You can pick one up at our Spirit Animal House party; Alita's also kindly donating a pheasant feather cuff to the event-only raffle that night, which you can win if you buy a ticket for $5 (at the event, sorry!)
CLARABELLA
Who: Clarabella, supporting the best in independent accessories design... Shoes, Jewelry, Handbags.
What's selling at Spirit Animal House: Shoes from Tashkent by Cheyenne, Leather goods from Tracey Tanner, Jewelry by Nicole Gagne, Bags by Kristen Aronsson and much more!
Forms of payment accepted: Cash and Credit Card
Questions? Requests? Want a sneak peak? www.clarabellanyc.com, any questions email: erin@clarabellanyc.com
We've shown Clarabella lots of love before and are huge, huge fans of Erin Whelan's boutique, which is chock-a-block full of feminine, modern jewelry, bags, shoes and accessories. It's starting to create a buzz, having recently been written up in the likes of Daily Candy, but we've been fans for ages and are psyched Clarabella's been getting all this attention. Erin's also a charmingly lovely lady herself, and you can meet her in person at the Spirit Animal House party where she'll be selling a lovely assortment of things, including some Tracy Tanner accessories I've had my eye on for awhile. Clarabella is donating a lovely Andrea Brueckner tote in coral to our event-only raffle.
DANGEROUS MATHEMATICIANS
Who: A clothing boutique for smart and sexy women, which carries Dangerous Mathematicians label clothing, select European clothing labels, and jewelry by independent New York designers. New lingerie section offers stylish and affordable lingerie.

Besides having probably one of the coolest names ever for anything, Dangerous Mathematicians sells elegant, playful clothes and smartly sultry lingerie in their Lower East Side boutique. It's all perfect for that smartly dressed girl with a bit of a racy side, and you can sample DM's wares at the Spirit Animal House party, where owner Karen will be selling all sorts of accoutrements for your inner sensual intellectual. Karen is also kindly donating a Dangerous Mathematicians T-shirt and a garter belt with stockings from her lingerie section for our Spirit Animal House event-only raffle: ooh la la!

Ah, how we love Sodafine! There's so much cool stuff in this little Williamsburg retail gem: why don't you check out our Fantasy Shopping Spree we did at Sodafine for yourself and see for yourself? We are psyched that Erin Weckerle from Sodafine will be there in person and selling some of her favorite small wares at Spirit Animal House. She's also kindly donating a Sodafine gift certificate for some lucky person to win at our event-only raffle -- good luck deciding if you want to apply it to an amazing Bahar Shahpar top, or a Popomomo dress, or a Cecilia Prado frock or...or...or...
