On The Road…Hybrid Style

Thursday, June 4th, 2009

The seeds for a hybrid road trip were planted when Karen and I were invited to spend Earth Day this year at Toyota’s North American headquarters in Torrance, CA. Toyota, hybrid-early adopters with their ever-so-popular Prius, also owns the Lexus brand which has its own line of luxury hybrid vehicles. Stewart+Brown is a partner of Lexus Hybrid Living and has teamed up with the brand for several marketing events over the last few years so when it came up that we were taking to the road in a few weeks for a trunk show at the fabulous eco-luxury boutique Eco Citizen in San Francisco our friends at Lexus offered to let us test drive one of their Hybrids and let them know what we thought about it. A no-brainer, right? For those of you that haven’t experienced a hybrid, they are a BLAST to drive! Especially the Lexus 450RX hybrid SUV that they generously loaned us for our road trip. It was our 15 month old son Huxley’s first road trip and an amazing trip for the whole family.

Greetings From Summer

Gathered Slip Dress

It may not be summer proper but it’s getting pretty darn close and the idea of days spent in the sun, enjoying the scenery is just a little too intoxicating to ignore. I decided to indulge my ideas of a fantasy summer in the best way possible: with post cards from some of the most beautiful places in the world. Take a look at some of our favorite dresses in colors you haven’t seen yet writing love notes to a mysterious someone. Maybe this story will inspire you to take a trip, even if it’s only imaginary, and pair each destination with the perfect Stewart+Brown dress

Day Dress // Long Merrow Tank

The Washington Post ran a little feature recently about how you can dress sustainably from work to weekend and we were happy to find that Stewart+Brown fit right into both looks. Like many others, The Washington Post is catching on to the fact “green” isn’t at all “crunchy”. Check out the full story right here.

Fab Sugar, which I’ve come to find out has many other -Sugar factions, recently picked up on our spring collection. They say, “Stewart + Brown has everything a budding stylista needs to kick start her Spring wardrobe: feminine shorts, flirty crochet frocks, and fantastic colors. And guess what? It’s all eco-friendly! See, it doesn’t have to be Earth Day for designers Karen Stewart and Howard Brown to change their ways. Since 2002, the two have been creating an undeniably cunning collection of clothes without damaging the Earth. Cool. I’m loving the duo’s offerings of streamlined girliness.” Well said Fab Sugar. Thanks Sugar.

Check out The Wanderous’ [a "mindfully decadent" design/life + style blog] post about Stewart+Brown. It’s one of the most in depth and well written posts I’ve seen about us and it’s sprinkled with many a clever interjection [you'll get it when you read it]. I’ve come to find that everything on her site is well written and in depth whether it be about music, the color Lavender or jewelery. For a dose of daily inspiration, give it a look.
