As many of you know, Kick Pleat is one of my favorite stores, whether in Austin or online. I have a confession to make, I don't typically buy things online but the things that I've purchased from Kick Pleat are always true to what they look like and how they're described on the site. For example, when I took my M.A. exam, I purchased a pair of Rachel Comey Pen Pal boots to celebrate from Kick Pleat. The sizing was controversial but Kick Pleat maintained that they were true to size, and of course, they were. It was a really special moment and when I opened the box and got a personalized thank you, it made it all the more special. Not only is Kick Pleat a such a gem in Austin but it has always been one of my secret gems in e-commerce.

Recently, they launched a new version of the website that makes it even easier to navigate between and view their amazing pieces -- which by the way, are always unique and come from designers such as Jesse Kamm, A Detache, MM6, Acne, Mociun, just to name a few. What I love about the pieces that Wendi, the owner, buys is that they are well-edited, simple, wearable, and distinctive all at the same time. Plus, they honestly always have the best shoes. I can always count on that every single season. 100%

I'm loving their new site and their new arrivals. Even better, they're having an amazing up to 65% sale right now so I'm posting some of my favorite picks below. Kick Pleat is generously offering free shipping from 8/8 - 8/15 so it's even more of an incentive to grab these difficult to find designer pieces and sales before they're gone. Happy shopping (and shipping)!
