DON'T MISS THIS!

If you missed our July tent sale.....no worries! Starting yesterday through July 31st, you can use the same sale discounts that were offered on the regularly priced merchandise, as well as shopping through all sale items that were under the tent that day! We have rolled the racks back out and they are in the store as we speak! How many boutiques will mark pieces all the way up to 80% off? Not many, so take advantage of this! We have had so many requests from customers that were out of town. We have never offered this before, so make sure you don't miss out!

I thought I would share with you a few of my FAVORITE things that were put on sale...maybe this will give you a little taste of what GREAT deals you can get, as well as trendy and stylish pieces to spice up your closet selection!

LOVE LOVE LOVE this zipper dress by Sweetees! All of Sweetees pieces are made with a great jersey fabric which washes well and lasts. The fabric is super soft and super comfy! This girl is super unique because you can actually USE the zippers on this dress! Unzip the zipper around the neck, and you are left with a sleeveless dress that can change the occasion and the season! The top piece comes off as a bolero that can be worn with a tank and jeans!

Another one of my favs...plus....insanely inexpensive for a high end designer! This strapless zipper front dress can be worn for a night wedding, New Years event, holiday party, Vegas trip....or even a good going out dress in the cooler season! How do you make this metal scrunch cocktail dress "OK" enough for going out without looking overdressed? Throw a black blazer over it (short or long), a leather jacket, or a cropped moto-style jacket, tights, and booties or over-the-knee boots...and you have a cute and sassy "night on the town" ensemble!

I am defiantly a jeans girl! Not only that, but True Religion is my favorite denim line! I own these myself, and I didn't get them at this kind of price....the sale price is a STEAL! Distressed denim is everywhere and this pair is cute, unique, comfy, and not overdone! Whether its a cute fitted top and heels for a night out, or a snug tee with boots or flops, your sure to feel stylish and trendy with whatever you decide to pair these hot "holey" bottoms with!

Look of the Week: Florals!

Time to box up those boring blacks and browns and stick those snow boots in the closet! The weather outside is getting warmer, and there's no better way to celebrate than with a flirty floral print. So, whether you're soaking up the sun at the beach or hitting the racks at the mall, you can rest assured that your fashionable, flower-inspired look will be anything but last season!

It's that time... This Saturday, November 14 doors open at 5:30PM -- the Anderson Arts Center is holding their 27th Annual Arts Auction! I know many of our regular shoppers attend every year, so I thought it would be appropriate to share with you a few of our formal gowns appropriate for any black tie event!

In Store Photo Shoot

Our many customers living outside our local area who can't make it by the store probably can't even begin to imagine what our store looks like. Well, here's a little secret: it's way smaller than you think! Anderson is just a tiny town, and we're a little boutique trying to make it in the great big world of cyber space. That being the case, I thought it would be nice to share with you a few photos from a recent shoot that took place inside our store.

A little over a week ago, when plans for another location fell through at the last minute, Jake was forced to make due with the space available in the store -- during business hours! What I really expected to be a complete catastrophe actually resulted in some beautiful photos. And even if you have been in the store, it would be tough to notice that the pictures were taken there if you didn't already know! Obviously, it doesn't hurt that we were blessed with Judith & Midori, who are both beautiful and experienced models.

So, here they are:

Judith, wearing a sexy little red keyhole tuck dress by Nicole Miller. If you want this one, you better shop fast because we've only got one left, in a size 2. In case you're interested, this little couch is located in our shoe & tank room.


Here's Judith again in the same red dress, accompanied by Midori wearing a curve-hugging animal print tuck dress by Nicole Miller. This one was also seen on "Ugly Betty" last fall, worn by Betty's sister Hilda.


Ahh, another Nicole Miller. This Tahiti Silk Jersey Dress is our latest arrival from Nicole Miller.


Here they are in our "dressy room", where all of our formals and cocktail dresses are showcased in their own room with a sparkling silver brick wall. These are two of the latest arrivals from our junior line. Midori's yellow leopard printed dress is ideal for the more brazen beauty, unafraid of a little color and a safari-inspired print. Judith's bubble dress on the left is no a little shorter and no less sexy.


Last, but not least..... In this photo, Midori is wearing a gorgeous watercolor print maxi dress by Envi. This dress is definitely an employee favorite. Judith is wearing Free People's Gingham & Lace Dress in royal blue.

As always, we've got to give credit to our photographer, Jake Simpson. Check out more of his work on Myspace.
