Pod x Covet+Lou Pop Up: May 20-21

Pod x Covet+Lou Pop Up: May 20-21

Super excited to let you all know about our up-coming event Everything Underthings. Co-hosted by us, Pod and the fabulous Covet + Lou (Tina Burgos), this two day pop-up will feature a collection of modern basics and loungewear by both veteran and emerging designers including Base Range, Pansy, Erica Tanov, Sula, Hansel from Basel, Brook There and more. 
Underpinning the event is the notion of women’s foundations: both the literal garments that will be featured at the  pop-up and the physical supports that help women build thriving lives. In keeping with that notion, a portion of the event’s proceeds will be donated to Rosie’s Place, the Boston-based women’s shelter that provides meals, housing, education, and support to women. Since 1974, Rosie’s Place has been helping women fortify their foundations, in all senses.
Listen, we all could use a new set of bra and d'wear so be sure to come by. Plus, it's for a great cause! Lock it in: Friday May 20th and Saturday May 21st at Pod. 

Spring Store Hours and More

Spring Store Hours and More

It's hard to believe that it's actually Spring today. We're looking about four inches of slushy snow, BUT, it's covering blooming daffodils, tulips, hellebores, and a host of other early blooms. We're out of the Winter dark for sure. For April, May, and June, we'll be extending our shop hours to Tuesday-Saturday 11a-6p. This Spring has us filled to the brim with fresh new ceramic tableware, bed linens, Bensimon's, and great pieces of clothing to update your repertoire. Lines including Fog Linen Work, Micaela Greg, Pansy, and Esby have us smiling daily. So come by and say hello and maybe pick up that much procrastinated house-warming gift, a pair of great canvas tennis sneakers for yourself, or that super duper Grown Alchemist hand creme that is going to really save your tired gardening digits this season.  See you soon. XO

Winter Break

Please note that our shop will be closed February 15th-23rd. 
We will be shipping online orders though--including these new Saipua soaps!

Above all, we want to wish you all a very safe and happy and peaceful holiday and new year. Thank you so much for all of your support, smiles, and high-fives.  It truly never gets old. And thank you for believing in the old fashioned bricks and mortar store model. While it's inevitable that we dabble in new technology, we love tiny stores. You love tiny stores. As corny as it might sound, they really do bring a community together where folks can engage.  It's all very relevant--still.  Peace out. 

Oh, and one more thing.  We couldn't end our holiday season without thanking Gemma Hart Ingalls for allowing us to use her wonderful snowy image for our gift wrap. Please be sure to check out more of Gemma's work here. Thank you Gemma. You have calmed and smiled more than you know. XOX

2015 Holiday Gift Guide

When it comes to putting together a thoughtful gift, we firmly believe in the thrill of the hunt. It’s not easy work, but the ingredients can sometimes be found right in front of you. While the internet is obviously a helpful tool, more often than not you can find what you need in and around your own neighborhood. The items in this guide that are not from Pod were found in and around our own neighborhood: At the stationer’s, a café, a small vintage shop—and even the butcher’s. You can download the guide here.

So swing by our website or stop in at our brick-and-mortar shop and explore Cambridge. Or, poke around your own neighborhood and investigate your local independents. You might discover something new and wonderful. And if not, we’re just a few clicks away.

Items for women, kids, and home will be on hand. Doors open this Friday October 16th at 11a. Not to be missed!
