Clothes Hound Party

I had so much fun today, I did a Clothes Hound party at Topsail Beach. What could be better than the Beach, Shopping and Wine with your girlfriends?! Of course I forgot to take pictures but Becky and Julie threw an amazing party which had a great turn out. I got to catch up with some old friends from high school I hadn't seen in a long time and enjoyed meeting some of their other girlfriends. I'm always amazed at the great group of friends girls have, I love being invited into their circle even if it is only for a few hours during a party. It's fun to observe the dynamic, hear about their interest and of course eavesdrop on the gossip. :) Definitely a fun Sunday! Thanks again Ladies!

Stella & Dot Fall Catalog

I just got back from a short weekend beach trip and when I pulled up to my house I noticed a box at the front door. I was super excited to find it was my fall Stella and Dot catalogs! There is some really great stuff in there this season so much so that I'm having a hard time ordering my samples because I want it all! If you want some free jewelry just contact me for a party, you could get $300 in free jewelry.....great idea for Christmas presents!

Fall Must Haves

Rachel Zoe was on Regis and Kelly today discussing Falls must have pieces. She works at making Celebs look like the best version of themselves and here is what she suggest for Fall 2010:

1. Hats

2. Sunglasses = Aviators, Cat Eyes

3. Oversize Scarves

4. Trench Coat = Belt it tight

5. Messenger Bags = For men and women (cross body bag)

6. Oversize Clutch = Can go from day to night

7. Statement Necklaces

8. Faux Fur

WEBSITE UPDATE

Okay ladies we are back up and running...didn't take long but boy was I stressed out about that situation! Enjoy your weekend, only 1 more day!

Shopping in a RV

Yesterday I shopped in an RV in my driveway! It's definitely the way to go, so convenient. Rosie from the Lisa Adams showroom pulled up in her RV stocked full of designers and amazing fall/winter items! All I had to do was walk in and shop. Brooklyn was in on the action hanging out in the Baby Bjorn, if she doesn't love fashion at an early age I'll be surprised! I wrote lots of new brands including, Renee C, WOW Couture, See Thur Soul, Velvet Heart, Charlie Jade and one brand I carried last year, C. Luce!!! I can't wait for you all to see the fall/winter Clothes Hound collections and as always the prices are great!

Ok so my website is still down .... I spoke to "Ken" last night and he promised to call me this morning and get me the info I need to contact the host company so we can get it up again. Basically my web design company split due to partner disagreements and my site was shifted to a new company which I believe is 2 people who also have other full time jobs. You can see my dilemma in trying to work with the new company! Hopefully all will be resolved soon but I'll keep you up to date!

New Arrivals

I just met with Kate from the Lisa Adams show room and purchased new fall items from Designers, Theme, Aryn K and Bobi and got some awesome belts too! Bobi is a new brand for us and I know you'll love it. It's made up of great basics with a twist, they come in a variety of colors and they're easy pieces you'll love wearing this fall. As always all the prices are great and I can't wait to send you all updates with more pictures!

Fun day at Coral Bay

I had a great show at the Coral Bay Club! It was super hot, only 100 degrees so I think most of the sun bathers wanted a nice cool break inside. There were some great young designers there, Southern Frock (who I ran into last week at Charm Night Out) Mary Bee's Jewelry (sweet girl from NC State) and a great bag designer, the bags are made from old sails. These vendors stood out to me b/c they are all college aged girls trying their hand at designing. It's great to see them getting such an early start, I definitely admire them for it! I bought Brooklyn a precarious pet, a super cute pink whale crafted from old quilts a lady in Raleigh hand makes them. All in all a great day at the beach. I definitely look forward to doing it again next year!
