Chic Local Products For The Entire Family
This month we bring you a sampling of stylish threads and accessories for the entire family, highlighting some of Charlotte’s best in local design.
Gentlemen, and Ladies
Belk just got a little more hip, which means Charlotte did, too. Identical twins Chip and Pepper Foster have been producing and designing quality denim for more than two decades. Their jeans have been worn by celebrities and sold around the world, so trust me on this one. The brand produces denim styles for men and women. Starting at just $68, this is one line of comfortable, cool denim you can’t afford to miss.

La Senorita Jolie Gabriella Tank Dress, $68.
Ooh, La La
Trends are definitely fun and exciting, but they aren’t always practical. Finally there is a line of women’s clothing dedicated to making comfortable, quality everyday pieces. T-shirts in a variety of shapes and designs, maxi-dresses and stylish sweatshirts; all sound the trumpets for La Senorita Jolie! My cut-off denim summer shorts have met their fall match with the Gabriella Racerback Maxi-Dress.
