Full Frontal Fashion

Bold but not cold. The key to this season's look as we see it, is to find the depth & softness to balance the structure and strength of your core peices. Your killer boots, the tailored jacket - you know the stuff. The magic happens when you add some bauble babble, like an opulent Jae Anonyma necklace of re-worked grandiose-ness, or a tapestry bag whose very texture tells tales of long ago.
So be fashion forward little soldier, just remember where you came from & let a little lace show through the armor.

Rompin' Around!!

This week featured in the window is some very fun summer looks.

If your looking for something so go outside and play in then the Knotty Sisters have the perfect pink romper for you to "romp around" in at the park, along with a Jae Ananoyma's "Julie goes to the Circus" neckless to complete the fabulous outfit.

Going sailing anytime soon? Then the Acanthus sundress with anchors on it is a must along with Pink Revolvers "Alfalfa" feed bag clutch to go with it. Your boy will be looking good as well with an navy blue Acanthus Tee, the both of you will be ready to hit the high seas!

We also have an outfit that can change from a dress to a skirt with just a fold. The Knotty Sisters have a fun grey and purple skirt that can also double as a dress...pair it with one of Rock:Her:Roots reconstructed vests and you have an awesome 80's sensation!

Helllls yeah! We got a little letter in the mail today letting us know we're a finalist...of what category...we don't know yet. Hope it's not "Best Hole in the Wall Boutique"!!!

The ceremony is going to be at Prairie Meadows on Feb 17th. Keep your fingers crossed! I'm gonna go scope out our competition...and maybe do some sabotaging like putting glue on the other contestants baton LOL JJJJJJJJJKKKKKKKKK Alrighty, peace out fans and friends.

Declaration of Independents

The impact of often disconcerting economic news and resulting difficult new realities can leave us feeling at times a little helpless. The solution: Get helpful! We are all born with abilities and interests, those things we like to do and can be good at. Change, whether you voted for it or not, was inevitable. Maybe we Americans have been a little TOO big for our britches. A resonant and healthy idea is to develop your key skill and thing long and hard about a fair trade right here at home. We should all learn to be self-reliant –anyway, it’s better for everyone. Realistically, though we can’t all instantly become pioneers and we don’t have to. Rather, pursue a D.I.Y. craft or service, and you’ll be in a position to barter for what you want and need if the need should arise. So, if we’re going to surf the axis shift, see the dollar become just another layer of history or who knows (insert scenario here), just find yourself a good shovel and dig in…there’s some satisfying work to do.
