It’s Summer and time to make sure we have all of our Summer time essentials. With warmer weather comes a shift in our approach to dressing. Every year, the first few days of summer feel eternal and unfamiliar. There’s a sense that the season will never end but also that it’s never existed—as if none of us have ever felt the humid air sticking to our freckled, sunburnt skin. That sense of newness seems to apply to our wardrobes, too. The perfect summer outfit is more of a feeling than a trend, and it’s one we want to capture before the season is really in full swing.

What do you feel like wearing this season? Shorts, rompers, dresses, tanks, jeans, jumpsuits? Whatever you decide, we have it at Meadow Boutique. I promise you that. The Boutique is full of Summer from one side of the shop to the other. Every week there is something new to try and pieces like you have never seen around town. That’s the beauty of Meadow, six of each, and never the same pieces over and over again. There’s never a worry of being caught with the same piece someone else has on in town. And the prices, let’s not forget about that. It’s so nice to be able to buy some clothes that don’t break the bank, especially for Summer! I never spend a lot of money on clothes because I wear them for a few years and then donate them. I have worked at Meadow for 4 years and the majority of my wardrobe has come from Meadow, no regrets, oh how I will miss working here…….but all my Summer wear will travel with me to Mexico. And when I come to visit family in Seattle, where do you think I will shop? That’s a no-brainer. I am a Meadow customer for life!

What’s new for Summer at Meadow Boutique this week?

RISEN Jeans has 2 colors that are quite Summer-y. There is a pink and green pair with a flare and cut off at the bottoms. Super cute and stylish for Summer. ZENANA has a super trendy utility romper that could have a place in your wardrobe. JODIFL has a lovely, red bold top that reminds me of the Hawaiian Islands. LES AMIS with a floral top that matches perfectly with any bottoms like shorts or jeans. GILLI with its signature rompers, jumpsuits and dresses. These pieces are so flattering and never wrinkle when packed away in your suitcase for any weekend getaway, or trip to some foreign lands!

OK friends - time to end this little blog. We will be looking for you to stop by and see what you can find to add to your Summer wardrobe. We are here at Wink, and we will be here for a bit. Many of you ask about the building we were in previously and when we will return. We will head back there when it is fixed up and ready for us to assume our space that we were in for 13 years. We will always keep you updated! Until then, we are at Wink and will be here for your shopping pleasure! Thank you for sharing your dismay of what happened, but we are extremely grateful we still have a presence in Queen Anne. This is where Shelley started, and this is where she will continue….rest assured! Thank you for your continuing support! It means the world to us. If we can make it through COVID, we can make it through anything, right? With you by you side, we believe that anything is possible! xoxoxoxo

"Summer is the annual permission slip to be lazy. To do nothing and have it count for something. To lie in the grass and count the stars. To sit on a branch and study the clouds." ~ Regina Brett
