Well, “to top it off,” the smoke is hurting our eyes and breathing has become difficult if you go outdoors. Fires are raging up and down the coast and we seem to be in the top 3 worst places in the world for air quality. If you have to drive, that seems to be a difficulty as well with how far you can see in front of you. Just another item to add to the list of the year 2020. We are only reminding you of these things because we know how strong you are. We know that you will figure out ways to make these times feel some kind of normal. Let’s hope someday we will be sitting around talking about 2020 and all we endured with ease. We might even have a little laugh or two about how many masks we all collected. My question is: Will we need to recycle them?
We have a feeling the masks are going to be a staple for us moving forward for a while. In Asia, they wear masks all year round because of poor air quality. They wear masks during flu seasons and in airports to protect themselves from any airborne germs. I lived in Thailand for a few years and wearing masks was really nothing to them. It was part of life. I will say our air quality right now is worse than it was in Thailand when they burned the rice fields February thru May. The masks we wore there were highly protective and not very stylish! At Meadow Boutique, we have some of the most fun, stylish masks around. They are here if you need a new one and we will have them for a long time to come, so let’s just call that normal, shall we? Many of us are in denial about the masks and that’s OK too, but we all have to be respectful of each other and wearing a mask right now shows the ultimate respect. We want to thank you for wearing your mask in the Boutique. We appreciate it very much.
Now let me get off my soapbox and talk about the new arrivals. This week we are all about Double Zero Brand tops. We have crew neck sweaters in many wonderful colors for Fall. We have some t-shirts, because they never go out of style. The new jackets are super stylish and I have my eyes on one in particular. Can you guess which one? We have some Gilli jumpsuits and dressy joggers and tops along with a cozy jogger set by Cherish that will surely interest you. Remember, we only get a couple of size runs for each piece, so not that we want you to feel anxious or anything, but …..well. You get the picture, as soon as this goes out to the masses we get a rush in the store to get the goods. Now, is also the time to get those Nature jeans in dark or grey wash because we have a full size run. We have so many great tops right now, in all the Fall colors, just like the leaves turning outside. Splendid Iris Jewelry is back and fully stocked with fun earrings and necklaces of many styles. Come on in and see for yourself, because I am truly out of breath with all that’s new at Meadow Boutique!
We love that we are able to get new things in the Boutique every week for our customers. We love everything about the shopping experience we provide for you at Meadow Boutique. We feel so comfortable with all of you trying on our merchandise and showing us how things fit and what you like about it and what you don’t. It really helps us because we all are different body types. Shelley takes a lot of time choosing all the right pieces and she thinks of people specifically when she orders and how things would look on different customers. It is truly an art to know that about your customers like she does. In December, it will be 11 years since Shelley opened Meadow Boutique’s doors. The only time she has had to close somewhat, was due to Covid and you supported us through that and because of you our doors are still open. Because of you! It’s always been because of you and all your support that makes Meadow Boutique what it is today! And to “top it off” nothing compares to our connection with all of you! Remember that, will you? We are looking forward to seeing your smiling eyes very soon. Much love to you all!
