Amy Appleton Dreyer started Steps of Style in 2012 with the launch of her Instagram account. In the last 12 years, she has built a brand that features her love of clothes, houses, travel, and her family. Now Dreyer is launching Blackbird Collection at 122 Southwest Blvd., a space with amazing light and a long history of creative energy.
Appleton Dreyer is combining “leisurely fashion and curated interiors,” which includes iconic vintage furniture, graphic rugs, engaging—and cheeky—accessories, as well as modern jewelry. Her stainless trays, tumblers, and ice cream cups are particularly appealing for entertaining a crowd, whether it’s for drinks on the patio or a grade-schoolers birthday party.
And, of course, there are clothes. Appleton Dreyer has curated pieces in enduring styles from a Michael Lo Sordo Bond 007 black silk satin maxi dress to a Carmen Llaguno Rhea Honey dress in white to a pair of tights in a sharp, clear red.
