Featuring the latest air circulation technology, ‘Un.loop' offers unequalled comfort.
Premium, full-grain leather upper offers immediate wear with no break-in required.

Lambskin lining with reduced stitching surrounds the foot in luxurious softness to prevent irritation and blisters.

Layering Basics

*Choose fabrics that are breathable.
*Stick with colors in the same color group.
*Mix up textures like combining leather with silk, cashmere with denim, or ruffles with tweed.
*Add some flair to your layering by pairing layers of monochrome or neutral colors with a bright color and accessories. For instance, bright red adds pizzazz to an all brown ensemble.
*Layer up on accessories too. One or two scarves worn in a tiered fashion adds dimension to the look. Don't forget an oversized handbag to finish the look.
*Balance your look when you wear layers. For instance, a fuller skirt should be offset with a form fitting top, while snug pants should be accompanied with oversized or free flowing tops.

This is the time of year to start stocking up on your basic layering pieces! They're starting to arrive here at Willow Tree. Come in and take a look!

Wear Now - Layer Tomorrow!

These are the Perfect Pieces for Style from now through the upcoming season. They're great as stand-alone separates or layering pieces. V-Neck, Scoop-Neck, cap or short sleeve. They're all gorgeous and comfortable! The colors are amazing, too!

If you are a long-time Michigander, you know that the weather changes often so you realize the importance of layering. You need to be comfortable but may also want to look stylish. To handle both, you need extra-special layering pieces like these. They are non-bulky, have a flattering cut, and feel so comfortable!

Be a Hero Simply by Wearing Brighton!

We all have people in our lives that we are concerned about. Whether it is a job loss or a bad mortgage loan, financial difficulties affect even the strongest families and relationships. Added to that, not having sufficient food to feed a family increases the burden and stress level for so many.

Through August 9th, Brighton is partnering with Willow Tree to make a difference in our community through the “Feed our Friends” campaign. The promotion is simple. You purchase a beautiful bracelet, and Brighton donates $5.00 to the charity.

We have a limited supply, so don't delay! Come in to see them today. The packaging is unique and fun and the bracelet is gorgeous!
