Fall Trunk Show!

Our first Fall trunk show was absolutely fabulous..... thanks to all the girls who came out Friday night and shopped their little hearts out.... I again was so busy that I didn't have a chance to take photos of the girls shopping but I did manage to take some photos of the outfits that Meilan and I put together...

This wonderful little lightweight jacket was a big hit on Friday night... the detail on it is so wonderful.... it also comes in black.



Last Thursday our big Cut Loose order came in just in time for the show... this swing top looks great over the scooter pants... but then again what doesn't look good with the ever popular scooter pants.


Valerie is such a good sport when we ask her if we can snap pics of her trying on the new clothes.



She fits right in with our new dressing room!





Meilan snapped me with our new Comfy USA tunic top.... I had on the scooter pants but then changed into lace edged leggings that looked really cute. This tunic was also very popular on Friday night....

Brenda couldn't make it Friday night so she came in in the afternoon.... she could be a model and she let us take her pics of the clothes she was trying on..... she has that kind of figure that EVERYTHING looks good on her.... she had fun and ended up with a fabulous start to her fall wardrobe....





We added a new dressing room on at the shop.... It is so frilly and romantic looking you just don't want to leave it.... Ashley one of our local artists dropped by with some of her new creations and vintage fabric clip bows.... they look so great clipped on the curtains of the new dressing room.

Again thank you all for coming out for our fall trunk show and for making it a great success....

Step into Autumn!

Step up to the front porch of #1 shop and you instantly feel Fall in the air.... The wreath on the front door lets you know that it is time to decorate with all the hues of oranges and yellows and browns....



Filled a rolling wicker shopping basket with a fall wreath, pumpkin and flowers... it is sitting behind the awesome giant metal pumpkins from Roundtop Collection...


Wreaths on the windows and a large floral arrangement in a metal basket.




Even decorated a metal chandlier with a garland of sunflowers.... and fall leaves in the green tree in the corner of the porch.


Pumpkins and fall foliage is everywhere on the porch.




An old wash bucket filled with bittersweet and red geraniums. The geraniums were in there and just added the bitttersweet to give it a fall look... so easy.


Just inside the front door another giant pumpkin with pussywillows propped behind it.... and bittersweet hanging from the top...

Mark your calendars girls for September 16th.... we will be bringing out all the new fall clothing with a big bash trunk show. Wine and muchies will be served from 5pm - 9pm... Indulge a little then have fun picking out some new clothes.... We have some great new clothing lines that we know you are going to just fall in love with.... See you soon! An email blast will be going out this week......
