I literally flipped when I saw this label SoCa by St. John, I mean this is a incredible piece.  In 2008 St John expanded a line to include a young contemporary line called SoCa.  Hoping to reach a younger audience, SoCa offered a casual but not too beachy approach to clothing compared to St. John’s traditional and refined designs.  SoCa is based on the Southern California lifestyle, but with a sophisticated urban edge.  Retail prices ranged from $195 to $295 for tops and pants.  Now the sad thing is that when you go to St. John’s website and type in SoCa it will come up as ‘there are no SoCa products available at this time.’  From all the designs of SoCa I’ve seen online it would be a shame if St. John stopped manufacturing this line.  This abstract top I found is made of rayon and spandex so it gives the body a little extra boost of contour.  I love that it’s collarless and I love the cut of the sleeves and of course don’t forget that waistband at the bottom, that just gives this top a little extra kick in the fashion pants.  Horrible mistake if St. John stopped this division.  I put this top with these gorgeous sassy chic Tory Burch navy linen shorts, they are super STYLISH and dashing.  I think these Roger Vivier black patent leather “Hello Coco” flats are just the ticket to push this ensemble over the edge.  Who doesn’t want to go over the edge today?  I always feel like I’m on the edge and I’ve grown rather comfortable there.  If there is anything on my blog that you are interested in please email for price, additional photos and measurements.  Be sure to check out The Thrifters Boutique and follow me on Twitter & Facebook, also don’t forget to check out my YouTube videos on thrifting.  Toodles for now.  Daniel
