New Arrivals from French Connection


French Connection offers a fashion-forward clothing range with a quirky spin on design, priding itself on quality and affordable prices. The new arrivals are gorgeous! The dresses can be worn into fall and winter with a little cardigan or jacket. The shorts are adorable with gladiator flats but can also be worn at night with heels. My favorite piece is the ponte pants, these have a zipper detail and look so great with a tunic top, they're a great alternative to leggings because they're thicker and not at all see through which means warmer for winter!

Now that Shecky's is over...


Wow what a crazy last few days! I headed up to Philadelphia for a 2 day Shecky's show leaving at 6am on Wednesday. It seems no matter when I go to PA I hit traffic somewhere so the trip took about 7 hours instead of 6. I got there and the show is in Central Philly so I had to unload on the street (no loading dock?). I was there by myself and just so happen to meet a wonderful lady who was also doing the show, she was willing to watch my car as I took all my merch upstairs. Thank goodness for her! I wasn't sure what to expect but the show was fabulous!!! It was Wednesday and Thursday from 5pm-10pm. Tons of women showed up and they were armed with cash and ready to buy, buy, buy! When they arrived the first plan of action was to head to the bar for the free drinks then they began their shopping. This was truly a great event which I will definitely do again. Girls of Philly .... I look forward to seeing you in September/October!!

Things I will never wear...

Fashion trends often make a comeback but typically they're not identical flashbacks. Whew! Repeated trends have been modernized, refreshed and improved the second time round, making them more up to date and stylish.

You've probably seen trends in stores recently that you once said you would never wear again! There are plenty of things I said I would never wear: skinny jeans, high waisted skirts, and hammer pants (harem pants). I have to admit that more than once I have tried and loved a few of these reemerging styles. I can't live without my Free People skinny jeans tucked into my boots in the fall and worn with flats in the summer. We are getting in a great Plaid French Connection Top in September, who knew plaid would come back in? I can't wait to wear it. Have you ever sworn off a trend just to find that you can't wait to wear it?

We are celebrating 1 year in business this month! This has been an extremely exciting year, starting the website and then our blog and facebook page. Meeting new designers and establishing a customer base worldwide! I was so surprised when I started receiving international orders! As time progresses we will fine tune our website and will always continue to offer the most up to date designers at reasonable prices. I have another market trip lined up in August where I will be doing all my buying for fall/winter. Thanks so much for helping us make this year a huge success!


Don't forget if you are local to NC we will be throwing a Customer Appreciation party on July 16th at Studio 91 in Chapel Hill. Offering wine by the glass and complimentary Hor'deurves. 10% off all jewelry that night!
