Poppy Barley Reviews - Flats

(Wonder where all these pretty Poppy Barley customer photos come from? Search #PoppyBarley and tag us @PoppyBarley on Instagram. Thanks to Jade, Chrissy and Sarah.)

Here's what happened this week:

  • We launched The Chelsea Boot! This is a big deal! So much excitement around this classic, comfortable + cool style ('60s fashion was a huge trend on the Fall 2014 runways). You can get it in Black, Kaki and Ruby Red.
  • We're a fashion finalist in Western Living's 2014 Designers of the Year Awards! This means parties in Calgary and Vancouver this fall. Fingers crossed for us!
  • In the last week, 3/6 of our team members spent time in hidden corners of Alberta where cell phones don't work. Here are three reasons to take a digital detox of your own.
  • We're learning about the divisive impact of "the bow". We polled you on the next round of design choices for our Contemporary Ballet Flat: do you prefer your rounded-toe flats with or without a cap-toe? What do you think of that bow? It's pretty divided! Let us know what you think here.
  • We all know that weekends are for pinning! This is your final weekend to put together your Stampede-inspired fashion board on Pinterest before we select the winner. We'll be giving someone $500 in custom shoes next week (details here). Here are a few of our favourite boards so far. Contest closes Tuesday, July 15th.
  • Reminder: you can still book an appointment with us to get measured this Monday. See you there.
  • It's confirmed! With the addition of a new team member, we're moving the PB Headquarters to a new office space in September, which means we're avidly reading stuff like this.
Here's what else we're reading:

Belt Measuring Guide

Belt Measuring Guide

A - High-rise style:

If you plan to wear your belt around your natural waistline, wrap a measuring tape around the narrowest part of your midsection. Then, add 3” to determine your high-rise belt size.

B - Mid-rise style:

If you plan to wear your belt lower than your natural waistline, you will require a dierent size. If you have a particular pair of bottoms you intend to wear your belt with, wrap a measuring tape through the belt loops while in a relaxed position.

When wearing your belt in your preferred style, it should fasten in the middle hole. The belt will relax with wear allowing you to cinch it tighter, as needed.

If you plan to wear the belt in both the high and mid-rise styles, you have two options:

  1. Select your high-rise style and fasten it more loosely when worn in the mid-rise style.
  2. Select your mid-rise style and fasten it more tightly when worn in the high-rise style.
