We had the opportunity to visit Strange Invisible Perfumes at Element Showcase this week and found ourselves enamored with the simplicity and refinement of their  concept. Founded by Alexandra Balahoutis,  each scent is made of certified organic botanicals. Devoid or animal products (hence vegan!) or artificial components, the scents have a depth that I previous only thought would be attainable with some animal musk , thankfully that is not the case. Our favorites include “Fire &Cream,” “Dimanche,” and the newly launched collection of Zodiac scents (above).  For more info visit  here.

In our second installment of  “Steal from the Boys,” Damali Elliott  founder of not-for-profit young women’s organization Petals -N- Bells, wears a mix of greys and camouflage for a look that is chic with a masculine street edge. Details and more images on the flip. Styled by Highsnobette, photography by Sandbox Studios. Make-up by Rosemarie.

Effortless comfort, a cozy pair of sweats while seldomly talked about when it come to style, can often be a favorite . We spotted these by Toronto-based Rebus Life at Project NY and had to share. See more colors on the flip.

Handmade in New York by artisans Dedegumo is a boutique line of watches with roots in Kyoto. Unique and definitelyout of the ordinary everything is customizeable. Take a look another style on the flip .

Spring 2012 brings tropical prints to Osborn Design’s signature oxford silhouette as well as ballerinas, and slip-ons. A peek of what we spotted at  Capsule on the flip.

These cute shorts stopped me in my tracks at Capsule last week. On a closer look,  the Spring Collection of New York based Bedford Street Laundry is one I for one want in its entirety. There is something sporty about that heather grey that just works every time. A peek on the flip at a hooded dress and fly girl jacket. Definitely Snobette approved.
