This year at Nest, we are so happy to offer a colorful array of clothing for both him and her, from many of our favorite vendors. As always, we are proud to offer organic, recycled or sustainable materials from companies that promote ethical business practices both in this country and abroad.
Prana
No one in fashion knows Fair Trade better than Prana. It seems the same can also be said about color. Sumptuous hues of golds, pinks and reds with their signature focus on prints and textural details like burnouts and lace make this spring collection want to leap right off the hanger and into your closet.

Toad & Co.
After a major re-branding, Toad & Co. (formerly Horny Toad Clothing Co.) has us very excited about the future.

We are certainly loving it so far!

Aimee is our eclectic girl – she loves to push boundaries and isn’t afraid to try new things with fashion. She wears pieces with interesting architectural and textural details, loves to buy local, and always tries to support companies that use fair trade business practices and work with organic materials.
Aimee can’t wait to try out some of her favorite summer-length cotton dresses with her new cable knit organic cotton tights from PACT, perfect for the cooler fall weather when worn under this eye-catching black and white railroad stripe.
A pair of new gray combat boots makes the look totally her own with just a hint of bold color on her neck and wrist that leave her feeling confident and looking cool all day long.
Aimee knows that fall fashion isn’t about having to cover up in additional layers; it’s about getting to. Mixing patterns, colors and styles all season long is a blast in her fall floral organic cotton leggings from Pact and a punch of color from her Super Maggie’s long sleeved tee. With a simple skirt in wine red, Aimee looks just perfect for the season.
To keep a spring in her step all day long, Aimee’s vegan “suede” Maryjane’s from J41 are a perfect fit. The slight wedge gives her a touch of lift without sacrificing comfort along the way.
Aimee feels comfy and cooler than the October breeze in her Rock n Roll styled black belted trench from Synergy; the perfect outer layer for those busy autumn days. Topped off with a say-something chandelier necklace from Stella Blue, she’s ready to hit the town in style or snuggle up at home with her honey.
Never one to be outdone by the weather, Aimee laughs at the idea that sleeveless dresses have to disappear in the fall. This sleeveless Savannah Smile dress from Mata Traders keeps her looking adorable while her cotton leggings keep her legs warm all day and night. The organic cotton fabric is warm without being heavy and the Catstooth print is sweet without losing its editorial appeal.
A pair of simple, slightly heeled black ankle boots from Jambu finishes off the look to perfection – simple, elegant and perfectly appropriate for the autumnal atmosphere.
The shorter days don’t hurt Aimee’s feelings at all- after dark is her favorite time of day. Her Asylan Dress by Aventura is perfect for this time of year, its attention-grabbing sleeve details and heavier knit just scream vintage inspired while the cut and silhouette are totally new.
This time of year is all about drama, so Aimee adds a touch of gothic beauty, perfect for the Halloween season, with a pair of black cotton fingerless Glovelettes from Echo Verde. The final touch is a statement piece of jewelry from Shari Dixon with a leaf motif set in oxidized silver with turquoise accents.
Paired with a comfortable but stylish black ankle boot and some leggings, she’s ready to take back the night. Now no matter what the evening holds, Aimee is ready to face it head on, chin up, heart on her sleeve, world in her pocket.

Sarah is our uptown woman. She’s smart, savvy and always stylish. She loves fashion, respects quality, and seeks out socially responsible companies. She understands that dressing for fall isn’t just about covering up; it’s about layering, utilizing heavier fabrics and knits, and focusing on the proportions that work best for her.
Her favorite summer dresses don’t have to go to the back of the closet just yet – this Rosalinda Dress in Deep Ruby with its warm knit and ¾ length sleeves is perfect for the fall when worn over a pair of simple black organic cotton leggings.
A pair of statement-making flats in a fabulous faux croc will take her from day to night with comfort, ease and elegance, while a touch of colorful sparkle at the ears and neckline will make her the envy of all her friends.
Skirts and camisoles don’t have to disappear just because the leaves have started to turn. This brassy corduroy skirt and black camisole pair perfectly with ankle boots and leggings.
Sarah knows it’s the perfect time of year for a pair of black ankle boots from Jambu, just high enough to keep her feet warm without covering her calves up completely.
To finish it off, a merino wool coat from Patagonia that will keep her warm right through New Year’s Eve and a verdigris heart pendant that will keep her smiling sweetly.
Without missing a beat, Sarah goes from mini to maxi, with this flowing maxi skirt from Nau in a sensible and chic smoky brown in a warm and wearable Tencel.
A kimono wrap top in a sheer knit with ¾ length sleeves will keep her just warm enough without adding unwanted bulk or changing her elegant silhouette.
Simple black boots and a pop of color on the wrist and at the neck are all she needs to take an idea as simple as a skirt and top and make it all her own this season.
When night falls, Sarah doesn’t want to be trapped under a huge, heavy coat all night, so she picks a slightly heavier cotton dress from Mata Traders and wears it over thicker cotton leggings with great heels.
The gray and gold tones work perfectly this time of year and compliment the autumnal palette all around her, while the black leggings and matching shoes keep her looking pin sharp and put together.
A statement-making silver and jasper necklace and earrings set and an adorable fabric clutch from Maruca Bags complete the look, and Sarah is ready to enjoy her night from now until it’s time to deck the halls.

The season’s new prints have arrived from our friends at PACT, and they are lovely!
PACT’s Impact Project this fall is to work with the Whole Planet Foundation to raise $50,000 to fund micro-loans to new entrepreneurs. The fabrics for the fall collection are inspired by small businesses, from tailors to repair shops to local cafes.
Your purchase of PACT items at Nest supports this micro-loan initiative which in turn invests directly in small businesses and communities. Along the way, you’ll enjoy the comfiest socks and undies we’ve encountered.
We’re now also carrying PACT onesies, hats and socks for babies!
As always, you can find PACT for gents over at Boulder.
