Tomorrow I release my first ever 4th of July inspired Limited Edition, Limited Quantity line! Check it out after 5pm CST!

Didn’t I JUST say that I wanted to break the cycle of posting just photo shoots?
Ahhh, well–this is new! And I wanted to share it before I forgot ALL ABOUT IT! (which I’ll do over the weekend, most likely)
Just a little product shoot with the beautiful Yuri, who I’ve gotten to work with a few times now–you’ll recognize her from the Boa Shoot and the Mardi Gras Shoot. She lives down the road–how lucky am I?
A few new pieces, a few new shots of older pieces.
Some new Swing Tanks, a new Crop Top, new Babydoll Tunics, new Sweetheart Neckline Bustiers….
And new shots of capelets and a cincher skirt.
We had so much fun, even though I had hoped to have more to photograph–as I mentioned, orders have been rolling in, and that means less time to create new things.
What do you think?
The new shoot was a full success!
I mean, I know I’m the one saying it, so maybe take that with a grain of salt.
But, I think the new look really makes the items pop in the listings.
What do you think?
I already have the next shoot scheduled, and hope to have the majority of the shop switched over to the new style within the next few months.
I commented to G the other day that the only things I have to talk about–indeed, the only things I think about–are all work-related.
I must be a true bore.
I need to get out into the garden this weekend!
Go fishing! (we totally got our fishing licenses this past weekend–both of us love fishing, but have never fished down here! G grew up fishing in the Bahamas, and I grew up fishing in MN. So, it’s a new adventure)
Maybe then I’ll have more to discuss…and be a tad more interesting. 😉
I’ve been working on new Spring and Summer things for the shop lately–neglecting the blog, neglecting the yard, neglecting the garden. *sigh*
Just sewing, sewing, sewing, SEWING!
Also re-working (or attempting to re-work) the photography for my etsy shop.
While I love the editorial photography, the lighting, the mood, the setting…..it’s not as cohesive as I’d like it to be.
So, I decided to try a new style.
Went out with the lovely Nancy Jane a couple of weeks ago and snapped a bunch of new photos with new things, as well as old.
While I love them……they’re still not right.
And so, today, we’re trying this again.
But in the wee little photo studio I have set up this time.
Going for more simple. Less distraction from the clothing.
But I think I’m going to miss the backgrounds.
Trying to get your business the way you want it is a never-ending process, it seems.
But worth it.
Happy Almost-Weekend to you!
It’s sunny and warm today, making me think of tunic dresses and summer.
This giraffe print is one of my favorite finds–though I only found enough of the fabric (it was a remnant) for one dress.
Tunic dresses are great for spring and summer. Worn with or without a belt. With or without a pair of capri leggings.
Perfect for long beach walks, summer festivals & backyard BBQs.
