Glove It Glams Up the Golf Course

Karen Lovcik is a woman who knows accessories and fashion. Her Glove It collection has been around for over six years and women’s golf gloves haven’t been the same since. Karen started the line because she was disappointed that she couldn’t find cute accessories to wear on the course. Now you can find a glove to perfectly match any outfit in your closet at Glove It.

The 2009 accessory collection includes a combination of bright prints and classic designs. Glove It offers a wide range of fun women's golf items including: quality Cabretta leather golf gloves, visors, accessory bags, neoprene water bottle covers, club covers, shoe bags and golf bags. New to the 2009 collection are golf towels and belts.

Glove It is also the exclusive golf and tennis licensee for renowned fashion designer, Nicole Miller. Karen told me the new Tiger’s Paradise bag, found in the Nicole Miller collection was inspired by a dress in a fashion magazine and has been a best seller. This bag has some serious personality.

Karen is a strong believer in playing good when you look good. The new collection offers some fabulous belts that will brighten any outfit. Each belt combination pack comes with three interchangeable micro fiber belts, two in the collection’s prints and one in a solid grosgrain ribbon. They are a one size fits most and the belt buckle is a clever and chic golf ball and club design. The belts are reinforced and have a Velcro adjusting system to give the golfing gal a perfect fit. Each set has a suggested retail of $24.95 making it an excellent value and easy way to spice up your current golfing wardrobe.

Pink Tee: New Trends for the Course

The collection

The Pink Tee vision started in December 2006, by entrepreneurs and golfers, Amy Wisehart & Misti Snow. New to the design industry, the girls began ripping up and sewing together trendy clothing to recreate golf–inspired looks that were young and relevant to current fashion. Although the line is designed to fit course dress codes, it is anything but traditional. It’s a mix and match concept with couture detailing.

What we love

The Melrose Zip is a jacket with an edge. It can be worn zipped up for a mock turtle-neck look, or unzipped and displaying an embroidered Pink Tee logo. It has a fun front offset zipper that gives it an urbane feel.

The Everywhere Skort is a winner with a hip wide waist band and a cool big button closure. It sits low on the waist and has the signature single tee holder on the side of the skort.

Golfability

These fashions definitely have a trendy touch, but it’s combined with smart pockets and the signature tee holder—pink tee included. All the garments can be mixed and matched allowing the golfing gal repeated use of these designs. There is plenty of bend and stretch to these fabrics.

The Right On! Dress has a modern plaid trim and stylish dropped waist. Mini shorts are included, but not attached. Crank up the tunes with the Rock On! t-shirt which comes in black or white and has a “Fairway to Heaven” logo. Led Zeppelin would be proud.

Living the TEHÀMA Lifestyle

The Collection

TEHÀMA is a Native American word that means “abundance of nature” and is one of the fastest growing sportswear and luxury lifestyle brands in the country.

The TEHÀMA sportswear line was founded by Hollywood legend Clint Eastwood and fashion industry veteran Nancy Haley who met while sharing wine with mutual friends at Eastwood’s Mission Ranch in Carmel, California. Eastwood, having worn some of Haley’s designs, asked her if she would consider starting a sportswear line with him. Haley, recently retired from Sport-Haley, accepted and came out of retirement. The result is a women’s and men’s sportswear line that can be worn from work to play.

What we love

The Carbon Printed Skort in Honeysuckle. The print on this skort is an intricate pattern of intertwined rings done in a sophisticated color combination of pinks and browns. The skirt is sleek and has a front zippered pocket at the waistband.

The Short Sleeve Reaction Carbon Shirt in Cappuccino. This shirt is cut with feminine side panels that are the same brown color, but offer contrasting textures. The shirt also has polished double piping details and a shiny silver front zipper.

Golfability

The skort and shirt are both made using natural technology called Cocona™ fabric. This fabric utilizes activated carbon made from coconut shells. It provides evaporative cooling, odor resistance and added UV protection (UPF 60) to keep you more comfortable in any environment. TEHÀMA offers several technical fabric lines that are clearly intended to play hard and wear well.
