Rise and shine!

Good morning! Welcome to Nolita at 4:30am.

We now have donuts, bagels, coffee, and orange juice for any customers who arrive before dawn.

Its our new recession strategy!

Just kidding! The front doors at Nolita are always locked at 4:30am.

But on Thursday, May 28th, we opened early for a good cause.

Kacey Montoya from KOIN TV stopped by to talk about the upcoming Bottles, Butts, & Boots Party

(what do these three things have in common? A countrified denim fundraising party, that's what).

Rob Widmer, of Widmer Brothers Brewery, also took part in the morning's action.

Widmer is a great local Portland-based company (so great they were willing to raffle off 10 party-kegs,

10 mini-kegs, and 95 six-packs of Widmer beer to the Bottles, Butts & Boots party)!

That's more than 28,000 ounces of local, delicious beer!

Widmer Brewery celebrated its 25th Anniversary this year. Congratulations!

The shoot was a lot of fun. Tons of our favorite peeps were there,

including Kirsten from Outside Media, Tess and Lynn from Big Brothers Big Sisters,

Rob Widmer, and Kacey Montoya from KOIN.

Hey I guess mornings CAN be fun! Just as long as there's beer ...

Citizens Of Humanity - Riley Boyfriend
100% Cotton
$229

These boyfriend fit jeans are incredibly soft and super comfortable. They are made from selvage denim and have a slightly distressed look, giving the illusion that they have been worn in to perfection even when they are brand new. These jeans are perfect for lounging on the weekend or partying in your favorite pair of heels.

Citizens Of Humanity - Destiny Flap Flare - Pacific

98% Cotton, 2% Elastan

$199

It's the Citizens you know and love but with a new twist. These jeans have the styling of an old pair of Wranglers with a dark rinse wash and orange/brown contrast stitching. The combination of the flare leg and flap pockets gives the classic coloring an updated edge. They are really amazing on the butt, waaaay better than this picture can do justice.
