Welcome STAUD To The Hive

Curating the collections in the store is one of the most challenging parts of what I do - but your input matters. I really do try to listen to what people want; however, I can’t get all the lines people request for various reasons. Sometimes they simply don’t sell wholesale, aren’t expanding, don’t want to be in my store based on other inventory we have, or I can’t find them, or it might just not fill a niche we need. Other times the suggestion is exactly what I need. So when I kept hearing about STAUD and seeing it online and loving it, I knew I had to find them. They really were what I had been missing in our clothing store for a few years. Easy pieces at a great price that were fashionable but not too trendy. And not just the clothing, the bags. The bags are amazing.

We just unpacked our first order of clothing. We are still waiting on purses, but they will be here soon. We didn’t get shoes for spring, but we just looked at the line for fall, and we added their shoes to our selection. 

A little about STAUD: it was founded in 2015 by Sarah Staudinger and George Augusto in Los Angeles. They want accessible fashion that has attention to detail. But what they focus on is not being typical. Instead, they want their designs to stand out on a rack and on a woman when she wears them. 

This spring, the selection is full of light poplins, bright colors, and flattering cuts. We went big on dresses; there were just so many great styles. Customers already love it, and we hope you will come to check out our selection.

Owner | The Hive and The Shoe Hive

I spent the first part of my career as a copywriter who helped elected officials brag about their support for entrepreneurs. Then I decided to get off the printed page and do it myself. The Shoe Hive made a splash on the fashion scene in Washington, and was named the region’s best shoe store in its first year. Fourteen years later, I have tripled the store’s size and also opened a sister store, The Hive.  At The Hive, we offer clothing lines that are sophisticated and approachable like Rag & Bone, Tibi, Raquel Allegra, Ulla Johnson and Veronica Beard. We have tried to fill our racks with clothing you will want to wear all the time, elevated basics that are worth the investment.
