Headed Upstate

Meet Kalen & Astrid (umm...could they be any cuter?) the amazingly talented designers behind Upstate...Brooklyn based, they create one of a kind hand dyed shawls, sarongs, and scarves shibori style (traditional Japanese technique)...I happened to pick one of these up for myself in the spring and it quickly became my go to shawl so of course I had to get some for the shop! The silk is a perfect all season weight and can be used now as a sarong or beach wrap and then seamlessly transitions to your favorite cozy piece for fall! The blue is absolutely gorgeous for all you Yves Klein cobalt addicts and the earth is a super yummy neutral....Shop Upstate Here

  3. These are so unbelievably beautiful. I tried my hand at indigo tying a few months ago and these require some serious skill and talent. These ladies have it!
