It was a fun and lively event! I had a great time, and so glad to get to meet some new folks out there. The space was packed for the whole time, despite the heavy, unrelenting rain. When you put together music, food, drinks, art and open studios along with makers of wearables and use-ables, well, I guess you can draw a happy crowd. I had fun talking to many people. One of the fantastic things about getting to do events is all the connecting with other vendors and learning about what they have to offer. There are some pretty darn cool businesses and artists around here. It was so busy that I did not have a lot of opportunity...

I’ve decided that my personal style needs something. An update, an overhaul, an addition of spice, an infusion: I’m not sure. What precipitated this, of all things, is that I decided to stop dying my hair, and see what it looks like with grey. I don’t even quite know how much I have. Admittedly, I am worried about looking older. On the other hand, I was inspired to do so when someone at my kids’ school grew out her grey, and she looks great. I know I can always go back. Hair grows. However, I think I’m ready. But to pull it off how I want to, I need to up the ante in terms of style. Which might at...
A popular color tank is now back in stock in all sizes: XXSP to XLP. This color sold well last spring, and the middle sizes sold out! Now this year, greens are on trend. This shade of green is lovely. It is soft, muted and natural, making it easy to match other colors. If you like wearing green, you will love this shade! Shop here.
I just added this tank dress to the EcoPetites collection. Shop here for more details. This is a loose fitting easy and very comfortable dress, almost trapeze shaped, but with some gentle shaping. The armholes are high and well-portioned for petites to prevent gaping and to cover your unders. High-low hem shows off some leg in the front. Wear loose or belted in warm weather. Layer with the Phoebe Cardigan for a little warmth and shape. Perfect to kick off spring: wear now with a low V-neck top, a denim jacket or blazer or a long sweater. Later, shed the layers and show you some bare shoulders. There are only a few of these, and they are priced to sell...
