What a beautiful Summer we have enjoyed since July 5. We have at least another month until we start feeling the coolness of Fall come around. So many of you are out and about taking little trips around Washington as to take in this epic weather before school starts again. I know I am leaving for a few days to go hiking around Bellingham and beyond. The air is so fresh and clean it seems and Nature calls to me to do a full emergence into its beauty. Nature always gives me calm and in Washington, the trees are always green against the blue sky. I am quite a talker until I am hiking, then I am as silent as a lamb, taking in all of my surroundings and drowning in them. For me, it is meditative and I seem to find all the answers to the questions that are pending in my life. I suppose we all have the answers if we are quiet enough to listen. Nature gives that to us, all of us!

What’s new at Meadow Boutique this week? (It’s a sweater week)

DOUBLE ZERO with sweaters, sweaters and more sweaters

LOVE TREE with sweaters, sweaters and more sweaters (I am now repeating myself)

HAILEY & CO with a sweatshirt and guess? Yes, another sweater

MADE WITH LOVE with a dress in 2 different colors, rust and green

The sweaters are not heavy, they are soft and cozy, great for cool evenings and layering as the weather changes. The dresses are styles and fabrics that will be perfect for Fall too. The pattern is lovely and the dress is flowy with short bell sleeves. Flattering to say the least. In Seattle, we don’t need heavy sweaters because the weather here does not get that cold in Winter. When I moved back here from Colorado, I donated all my sweaters I wore there because they were way too heavy. The coats I wore were also too much for the weather here. Our Winters are pretty mild and the need for layering is a must. So when you think about Fall, because you will at some point, remember the weight of our sweaters and how well they will do in that layering process.

We have seen a lot of new faces coming into Meadow Boutique this Summer, so I want to kindly remind everyone of our return policy. There is a framed sign at the checkout (it’s been here since Shelley opened) and it says this:

Exchange or store credit within 14 days of purchase. —— Items must be unworn and unwashed. —- SALE items are a final sale.

We do not give cash back within 14 days, only a forever credit or exchange. We are a small boutique with constantly changing merchandise. We usually sell out of a pieces within those 14 days so to put a returned piece out after all the others are gone, can result in it hanging there past a season and us having to put it on sale. We value you all as customers and want you to be happy with your purchase. If something doesn’t work out then please bring it back within those 14 days. We would so appreciate it! For those of you that have shopped at Meadow Boutique a while, you already know the drill and we thank you for adhering to our return policy.

Get out there and keep enjoying the fabulous weather! There is so much to do here in Seattle during the Summer. We miss seeing you, but we are certain you will return after this incredible Summer winds down. Kids will be back at school soon you will be doing your walks about town and stopping by to see us. We can’t wait! Take good care and make safety a priority. Times are a changing and we have to be hyper vigilant about our surroundings. We surround you with all the love and care we can muster and wish you nothing but more good times for this stunning Summer! xoxoxoxo

“August was nearly over - the month of apples and falling stars, the last care-free month for the school children. The days were not hot, but sunny and limpidly clear - the first sign of advancing autumn.” ― Victor Nekrasov
