Welcome to Chatsworth & Hall in beautiful downtown Oakville!

What’s New and Notable

Spring 2012 from Joseph Ribkoff featuring the colour of the season - 'Hot Tangerine'.

Royal Blue:

We are seeing this rich and beautiful colour become more and more mainstream. And no wonder. Combined with either black or navy it looks both new and fresh. Chatsworth & Hall’s Fall 2011 Collection features Royal Blues from Samuel Dong, Bylyse, Louben and Oscar B. Speaking of the ‘royals’ – check out Fashionable Notes for my take on the fabulous and stylish Catherine M.

Taupe:

Ribkoff calls this elegant, classic

colour ‘Moonrock’ – a warm

combination of silver and beige

which is flattering on almost

everyone. How wonderful to

have another basic colour to

beautifully combine with, and

in some cases, replace

everyone’s favourite – black.

We have it in a light as a

feather cashmere jacket from

Louben, and combined with rose

pink from Bylyse @ Ease, in faux

suede from Lebek (please see

Pauline’s best pick), and stylish

separates from Paris based Caty

Lesca.The taupes, blacks and

creams of the season also

combine in some of the most

sophisticated animal prints we

have seen in years.

Thinner Pants:

If you are not quite into the extremely popular legging look, the new, thinner pant worn under tunics, long shirts, short dresses is an easy, flattering and stylish alternative. From Not Your Daughter’s Jeans, Gardeur and Ribkoff.

Wider Pants:

Drapey, wide pants are elegant, easy to wear and very European. They look lovely with longer draped tops or with the short, shaped jackets from Louben or Ribkoff.

Short, Shaped Skirts:

In stretch fabrics for comfort, these skirts are sassy and stylish. Worn above the knee, they are an important look for Fall. Look for them from Ribkoff, Gardeur and Ingenuity.

Longer, ‘Maxi’ Skirts:

Graceful and so easy to wear, long skirts have crossed the Atlantic from Europe this summer and have stayed for Fall. They are best worn with flatter, chunky shoes or boots for a Boho, comfortable look. Chatsworth & Hall has the new longer skirts from Ribkoff, Nic + Zoe and Caty Lesca.

Modea Stretch Cotton Blouses:

Customer after customer

has told us how marvelous

these blouses are. First of

all, they are up to the

minute in style. Combine

that with an extremely

soft combination of cotton,

nylon and elasthane, a

fabric that washes

extremely well, doesn’t

need ironing, and stretches

for comfort, never feels

tight and you have a real

winner. We have 7 styles of

Modea blouses in white,

pale blue and stripes

coming for Fall. A German

company, Modea also

makes jeans, jackets and

fabulous 100% cotton

sweaters.

Funky Mesh Layering tops from Joseph Ribkoff:

The newest in layering, these crew or turtle neck long sleeved mesh tops go under everything, covering the arms and adding an extra element of style without adding bulk – or warmth. Hard to imagine? –

You’ll just have to pop in and see them –At Chatsworth & Hall. Where Else?
