Wow!!! Can you believe I'm actually early??? It's pretty exciting indeed to get all of our deliveries even before we expect them. This way we can get our newsletter out before we leave for New York. Otherwise, all of these goodies would just have to sit upstairs in the boring old stockroom for a week or more..............

Many of you have been calling to ask when our next shipment of Blanque would be arriving. Well......here it is, just in time for these beautifully sunny and warm spring days. (Sorry, I do tend to forget that some of you may still have that cold, wet, white stuff on the ground where you live!!!) Our collection of white blouses is varied in both texture and silhouette. We have slightly crinkled fabric, the "wave" textured fabric, and the "leaves" pattern. Each fabric comes in a different style/styles. We have the swingy and roomy Francis Shirt (both regular length and cropped) which so many of you have in the matte crepe. And then we have the fitted "Hook and Eye Shirt" with front and back detailing for a tall and slender look. ....and then we have the styles in between.....something to please everybody!!! The pant fabric that we are featuring is new too.....a subtle stripe of denim and black in a soft touch fabric with a lovely sheen. For those of you who are looking for matte crepe pants (and aren't we always?!) we have the Bell Pant, the Double Zip Pant and the new Marbella Pant.....all in black, of course. Come or call early, as these do tend to disappear FAST!!!!!

Believe it of not, our 2008 Fall Collection from Ray Harris is already here......and, believe it or not too, we have already reordered it!!!!! This outfit that we are showing is the new menswear patterned gab in our best selling crinkle top pant and a new mixed pattern jacket. This is one fabulous-looking set.....and it is available in a cinnamon brown as well. We have several other styles also, along with our usually changing selection of his pleated polys in a variety of colors. With over two dozen color choices, we are always happy to order you something special.....

Anya's tee shirts are always something special, and we have more new styles than ever!!! AND, we have all sizes from small through extra-large in each style.......

The newest addition to our Krista Larson collection is a fresh grouping of black and white. I usually love the colors mixed, but I restrained myself so that you can see how elegant it looks all tonal. We have lots of great cotton pieces to go into summer with more on the way next month. I am so glad that many of you are experimenting with all of the ways that Krista can be worn.....because just one piece mixed with something you already have in your closet can be great looking. I just love all of the converts we are getting....and then hearing about how happy they are when they are wearing Krista and how people just love the way they look!!!!!

My friend Kat is busily working on new Pixie Bleu Vintage skirts. Her one-of-a kind collectibles are pieces to treasure with their special fabrics and buttons and trims. Kat uses exquisite European fabrics which she embellishes with very special ribbons and laces at the hem. These pieces all work beautifully with Krista Larson jackets, camisoles and slips...............

NOW.....we have just gotten reorders of some of the BEST of SPRING.....

Jutta Nordheim's whimsical and sort-of-sexy sheer silver jackets. These are for EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lynn Mizono for Giselle Shepatin "Manuscript Blouse" in white Italian crushed polyester. This shirt washes like a dream. It also looks great worn open as a jacket. AND....we will soon have it available in a sort-of-sexy wet look crushed black. I sold the first one out of the box.......

Catherine Bacon's black taffeta "Rose Skirt"....a dramatic, drop-dead-gorgeous piece with hand-made roses embellishing the front hem. Should it work for you, it is also great pulled up into a short strapless dress!!!!!

Are we versatile enough???

We need accessories too.....

Bo's Art continues to come up with new and beautiful styles in their mesh evening bags. Each one can be used as a clutch or as a shoulder bag with its included silver metal strap. We also love a couple of new additions—the i-phone case and the business card holder.

We have gotten in even more Sarah Cavender necklaces since we took these photographs, as well as more of her round mesh bangles. And don't you just love the big mesh belt???

We also have big and dramatic belts from Susan Riedweg..... in the same wonderful "Mineral" leather as the purses that we had in our last newsletter. Her first back-pack that we are showing is not only great looking, but it is extremely secure because of special construction that makes all but the small outside pocket stay snug against you!!!

Diana Taylor has just brought us a fresh batch of her "squiggle" pins and "cherry" necklaces. The pins now come either in bright cotton prints or in softer and subtler necktie fabrics. These are really fabulous accessories that add a lot of punch to whatever they adorn!!!

Our reorder of the hand-printed Polonova socks arrived last week......Market research has proven that these socks do stay up as well as the Sox Trot ones!!!!!!!!!!!

If you have been in the store lately, you know that it is PACKED with a lot of other good stuff too...........

Siga and I do love the toys....

We have always featured FB Fogg dog and cat and other animal clocks. Well, this artist does have a rather wonderful sense of humor, and so we have decided to do a thing about a whole different category of shoes...

The Wicked Witch's Legs
Alligator Shoes
Crows Feet

................NO.....you can not wear them (although I almost got my foot into the alligator shoes once!)

Do you think it might be fun to come in and play with us??? We do.......!!!!

love you bunches!!!
