New Obi Belts for Spring! Transform your look with a pop of print or color!

Obi belts are a great way to change up the look of an outfit, and can be a great accessory to make an outfit a bit more casual or sophisticated, depending on the print combination. Throw an Obi belt in your purse and add it on top of the Jamie on your way from the office to a dinner or night out. Add one of our scarves as a shawl and you are looking so chic!



Have a cute plain dress that needs a fresh touch for spring? We have so many new Obi belts to add a pop of color to an outfit you already have, or one of our beautiful dresses. 


They can also be layered over a tank and cardigan for a more casual, yet sharp look. Pair with some of Sarah Bibb’s cropped palazzo pants and you have a super cute outfit that can shift between casual and dressy, and is so comfortable!   


We have a bunch of colorful spring prints in the shop this season. Have fun and get creative by mixing and matching patterns to change up your favorite look! Send us photos of your favorite Obi belt outfit pairs and we’ll feature you on social media!

Not feeling quite sure about how to mix and match prints or use an Obi belt to transform an outfit? Scroll to check out Sarah’s styling tips below!

The Last of the HYLA Reversible Wrap

The HYLA Reversible Wrap Skirt is perfect for this transition from spring to summer days, whether you’re traveling, at work, or riding a bike! At knee length and in A-line silhouette, this skirt is a better basic, and since it’s reversible, it’s like getting two skirts in one!


This is the last small batch of the HYLA, and we only have a couple more in stock in a handful of cute prints! She pairs flawlessly with our fitted Caroline Tee, which is super easy to wear tucked in, and available in both a three-quarter and short sleeve length. What a great, classic staple to have in your closet for years and years to come!


Handmade in Portland and exclusively sewn in small batches using only the best & cutest cottons.

Cute Pants and Easy Tees! Perfect Casual Summer Staples

There's almost nothing that feels as good as your favorite summer pants whether it's a cropped jean, a cute light trouser, or a relaxed linen pant! Pair that with the perfect light and easy tee for a look that's easy, casual, cute!

Cute, easy, sooooo soft! Slim slouchy fit. Cuffed hem. The perfect basic.

Stretchy soft linen! So versatile. Dress up for a dinner out or just with a tee to the grocery store! 
(Size down one size...these are very relaxed!)
Also In Tides (a lovely sea green)
And in Yacht (a classic navy blue)

Skinny. Sexy. Slouchy. The perfect mid-wash crop jean! The released hem is vintage cute.


Soft. A bit sheer. Cutest pattern! Think abstract watercolor floral ;)

The perfect white cotton tee!

Cute burnout medallion pattern. Incredibly soft...like baby blanket soft!

For something a bit girlier! This is a cute and sweet take on the white tshirt.

New Styles by Sarah Bibb for Spring!

We have some early Spring arrivals at Folly! Sarah has been working extra hard on making new designs that have that extra special something. This year's new styles will have pretty, well thought out details. Only in the prettiest fabrics of course! 


Introducing... The Anca Skirt and the Melanie Top
The Anca skirt is a full and easy chiffon skirt. Perfect for twirling! 
So adorable with leggings and booties...and she'll be even better in sandal weather! 


The Melanie Top is an easy blousey top with gorgeous details!
The sleeve has beautiful detail stitching. Drapes so perfectly.
Perfect tucked into a skirt, with your favorite jeans, or a cute skinny pant.


The Anca Skirt is also adorable paired with our classic Caroline Tee!


We also got some adorable pieces from THML
Check it out! Springy and cute, this embroidered yoke top is so cute tucked into a full skirt, 
(like the Anca!) paired with jeans or your favorite summer pants.


And last but not least...This adorable denim button down dress! 
So cute for Fall and Winter...bundled up with fleece lined tights and a big comfy cardi.
So cute for Spring and Summer too! Just roll up your sleeves and slip on your favorite sandals!


Keep checking the Blog for new Spring things! It's that time of year!

A big, bold, colorful print mixed with a classic silhouette=YES!

Scalloped edges and a pointelle knit to keep you girly and sweet,

Florals for Spring!



Ok Miranda Priestly, I know! Florals are always around this time of year...but that's because they are CLASSIC! When the sun comes out and birds start chirping away there is nothing that will make you feel prettier than a fresh floral print!


The Nora Dress by Sarah Bibb in Betsy Floral is the most perfect floral. Girly and sweet but so modern and fresh! I love the color palette. Deep rose, teal, and canary yellow. So beautiful! Wear her with or without an Obi belt. Looks best over an ivory slip! Perfect for weddings, brunch, a walk in the park, or absolutely any time you want to feel gorgeous! 100% Silk and only $190.00!




In need of something extra special to add to your outfit? Try a Johnny Was Scarf to spice it up! They are washable 100% silk and they are such a perfect and generous size. Easy. Unique. Beautiful. We love them! So many different patterns to choose from :)



Last but not least, we've put our fave candles online. Voluspa is made in the USA from a super clean burning coconut wax! Crane flower has notes of Bird of Paradise Nectar, Ripe Grapefruit, Geranium and Lavender. Smells like spring! This candle lasts for SIXTY hours! What!

Bold, Fun, Flirty Prints for Spring!

The sun is shining and I've encountered more than a few trees blossoming...Already! Spring is on it's way. We hope you're ready! At Folly we have been making lots of pretty dresses and tunics in amazing prints! Come check them out!

We've already put out new Vickie tunics! Such cute and fun prints! Wear them with skinny jeans or leggings....or if you're short enough like me it makes a great mini dress! I love this color combo...Black with a pop of watermelon and teal? YES please! The geometric tribal print is so fresh. Love it! Made with love in Portland!


We also made the Vickie in this super fun Pink Geometric pattern. A girly color scheme, but just as fresh and modern! Doesn't this print remind you of embroidery or embellishment? Soft and comfy but so stylish...and SO easy to get dressed in the morning. Did you get a peek of my crazy blue socks too??? Actually so cute with this outfit!

 


But of course this time of year also calls for parties and weddings. If you love to dance, eat, drink, and be merry you might want a Nora dress by Sarah Bibb! Comfy but so sweet and pretty. Sarah really spends her time to pick the perfect floaty silks in the most beautiful colors. The Nora is so versatile. Whether you just want to wear your hair down and slip on your strappy sandals, or if you want a regal up-do and super sexy stilettos, this dress works! It's a true chameleon.

(This one feels so luxurious on your skin!)



(This is like a secret rainbow...looks like glass from afar!)

Remember to keep Folly in mind if you love to shop local and USA made!

This Week on Outfits of the Week...Pensive Plotting

Obviously things between the Manic Mannies and I have been rocky ever since I dropped Stella Number 1 a few weeks ago, which was totally an accident...or was it? Anyways...I probably shouldn't talk about the dropping of Stella anymore. Whenever it's brought up she comes up with new ways of punishing me.

Unamused face/my plotting against Stella face if she keeps on punishing me
The latest punishment happened when I bought my new Fifteen-Twenty Jumpsuit. I was sooooo happy with my new purchase. I frolicked all around Folly feeling super fresh and oddly tall for only being 5'2". I even had Kate try one on and we were jumpsuit twinsies for a day. I mean look at that face! That is the face of happiness. I was feeling good in my new outfit (which I will be living in)!

UNTIL Stella rained on my parade. Stella out of sheer evilness, demanded me to dress Stella Number 4 in my exact same outfit. She also made me change! The nerve. If she had eyes I would've clawed them out! Needless to say I was not a happy camper with how things went down, but I still have the freshest jumpsuit this season! :)
