we had another great photo shoot this past weekend!  the weather has been lovely in the bay area as of late and its got us itching with spring fever.  so...we packed up some of our favorite spring goodies, some gorgeous girls (who are also some of our fave Mercy customers) and headed to our friends spacious backyard brimming with flora (and fauna).  here are a few outtakes from our beautiful day in the sunny sun.

Stand up and stand out in brightly colored and abstract prints!  Don't be afraid to mix your prints, either.  Choose unique prints in similar color schemes and you can pull this look off easily.  Relax...and go wild!!!  Here are some of our favorite print combos in the store right now.

We had another amazing photo shoot with the lovely ladies from Down at Lulu's at the Chapel of the Chimes in Piedmont.  The location and clothes were beautiful and, as always, it was amazing to work with such creative and stylish women!!  Check out our collaborator's blogs: Maya Messoriano runs the lovely Regal Beagle blog and Sarah Rainey keeps us updated on her BILF Worldwide tumblr.

We are pleased to announce the arrival of a boat load of new jewels from our dear and talented friend, Hannah Weiss.  We have carried her Canopy line of jewelry in the store before, including a collaborative trunk show with Jess Feury's Talisman jewelry, and it has been a hit with all of you!!  Hannah brought in some beautiful, new, one-of-a-kind pieces just for MERCY.  Check out her bewitching earrings and necklaces composed of rough cut stones and vintage chains and findings, then come into the store and take one home for yourself!

Sunny summer days provide opportunities to get a little more adventurous with your wardrobe.  Mix prints, wear bold colors, try new silhouettes!!  One of our favorite themes this season; literary prints..whether it be old english lettering or brightly colored street signs.   Mix your words and letters with a graphic pattern for a unique summer style.

Its been a while but we're back in the blogging business!!  We recently had a lovely photo shoot with Maya and Sarah from Down at Lulu's at Rock City up on Mt. Diablo.  Such a joy to collaborate with those creative, stylish ladies! Here are a few photos from the shoot...many more to come! (All clothes featured are from MERCY's stock unless otherwise noted).

Orange.  It is the color that embodies everything evocative of fall.  The leaves are turning it, we are carving it in October, serving it up as a side dish in November and wearing it all season long!  At MERCY we're loving it long and flowy, but there are endless possibilities.  We're currently stocking a pumpkin colored double-knit coat, a skin tight party dress by Versus by Versace in a vibrant tangerine and a beautiful sweater dress in a neon version of the hue, just to name a few.  Come in to MERCY today to get a new, delicious fall piece!!
