Spring at Ecco

What's new? That's what everyone is asking as they walk through our doors.
In Vermont, it is easy to get bogged down in our practical day to day uniform of boots, jeans and sweaters, so at the very first hint of Spring (even in the midst of a surprise blizzard) we are ready to jump on board the new trends!

So here is a taste of what we are looking at this Spring...

Of course, the trouser and wide leg jean that we are obsessed with:




And we just got in the Ginger, high waisted wide leg, and the Dojo, trouser leg,  from 7 for All Mankind!




For a little edge, we are loving the biker inspired, studded trends.







And we can't resist a chunky high heel or platform...especially with studs or animal print...







Just a few of our obsessions...a little food for thought as you plot your Spring wardrobe...

See you at Ecco!

Style Icons

How do you define great style? Who do you try to channel when you're getting dressed?  What are you wearing when you feel your most stylish or sexy?

There are plenty of classic American examples, like Marilyn Monroe, effortless in her sensuality,


 or Lauren Hutton, casually gorgeous in her safari chic staples.

At Ecco our style runs the gammet and our icons vary as well, although somehow we all end up dressing with some similarity...not sure how that happens...

But here are some picks from Michael Stars that we think would make anyone effortlessly stylish...afterall, the whole point is to look you aren't even trying.
