Helene M. Fashion Blog

Sensibly Chic, can we ask for more? 

The Hunter Wellie - They’re our current closet obsession, and one with considerable cache. The Royal Family has been famously sporting them for decades and making them what some call a British institution. Presently, American gals have been adopting these boots into their wardrobe, with fabulous results. The super stylish among us already have a few colors in our closets.  At Helene M. we wear them with everything from dresses and leggings to skinny jeans and skirts!  And the timing couldn’t be more perfect as we move into New England’s infamous mud season… So whether you’re walking the dog, or puddle jumping on a rainy day, these fashionable boots will keep you moving in style. We promise you will feel SO chic wearing this classic, functional staple, you’ll want one in every color. Find them in our Portland location!!! 207-772-2564.

This image may seem incongruous- a cheerful, breezy printed skirt with a delicate silk, crochet top (both by Milly) against a backdrop of snow-covered ground…but that snow is melting!  It was in the 50’s today!  It makes you giddy. Once outside vanishing icicles had dripped on the Milly-clad mannequin, but she was unflappable; when the sun is shining and you look that fabulous, what’s a little melting snow?

(We have more great pieces from Milly in our Portland and Portsmouth locations now!)

FYI: Yesterday in Portland we received a shipment from Michael Stars, one of our Helene m. true blues, and if short sleeved v-necks and scoop-necks in a myriad of juicy colors isn’t enough to satiate us, we also got the elbow sleeve in stripes and solids!  We always seem to be ready for a new season even if all we pick up are some new Michael Stars tees.  Got to love them!
