After years of retail and fashion experience, Sandy Skinner decided it was time to make a difference. In May 2007, she used her childhood nickname &#8220;Skin&#8221; and launched ecoSkin, a line of sustainable, made-in-the-U.S.A. fashions for women.

Covet is a unique blend of fashion, music, art and design. And that&#8217;s exactly how Randy Krebs, the owner and primary designer of the store, comes across. With his rock-star hair, forward-thinking music sense and international fashion labels, Krebs is the personification of Covet.
The typical Covet shopper is urban, modern and confident. When designing the [...]]]></description>

For her, the vocals of artists like Lou Reed and long-time idol and friend Patti Smith live on as channeled into the high-end [...]]]></description>
