It’s August…..already. Amazing, so many “A’s.” August is the month with lots of things going on here in Seattle - my favorite is the Blue Angels flying our friendly skies. I love seeing them high above the clouds in perfect synchronicity to kick off SeaFair. These Blue Angels aren’t just amazing aviation geniuses, they are Ambassadors of Goodwill. I went to the Blue Angels website and found out some interesting information about them, and if you are interested to see their schedule and all they do, click HERE to find out more!
OK, now down to the business of Fashion, right?
The polka dot dress hanging outside is reminding everyone of Pretty Women. Today alone, I have sold 3 already. It’s not exact, but close enough. Not sure if you remember or saw Pretty Woman, but Roberts' Pretty Woman character, Vivian Ward, sported the brown and white polka dot dress for a polo match in the 1990 rom-com on a date with Richard Gere's Edward. It’s an eye catcher because it is out on a rack in front of the store. So stylish with a hat and some kitty heels, a glass of champagne and you have the Julia Roberts look! August is all about dresses. We have a lot of cute dresses right now. I am certain there is one waiting for you! When the weather is warm, dresses are the coolest to wear, it seems.
What’s new at Meadow Boutique this week?
HEM & THREAD, LES AMIS, BLU PEPPER, NEW IN, CHRIS & CAROL and MINE are this weeks front runners for fashion at Meadow Boutique. These brands are some of Meadow’s favorites with great styles and fashion forward pieces that last.
Make the most of this month before the kids go back to school and sports resume. We hope you have been able to enjoy the Summer months with friends and family. I have been cleaning out closets in anticipation of moving in January to Mexico. I will do it again November because as we know, shedding our stuff is a process. Shelley is not going anywhere. She is hoping the building on Crockett and 6th will hurry it up so she can go back to her old home. Shelley has so many plans for re-opening. You just wait and see! I don’t think I will be here when Meadow Boutique reopens, but I am sure it will be a big hit and I will miss being part of it.
It has been such a joy working here for the past 4 years. I have so many great clothes and I have met so many incredible women. For this, I am forever grateful! This week, 3 women have commented on the blog and how much they look forward to getting it every Friday. I have been so honored to do the blog each and every week and get that email to you so you can be the first to see what’s new. This part of my job has been so creative for me. And thank you for always complimenting the blog and enjoying the writing. I am so happy you can relate to it! Every week I always wonder what I am going to write about, and lo & behold something always comes to me. I still have a few months to go, so hang on for the ride! I promise I will keep you informed til the end of my time and then someone new will come along and grab your interest as well. I promise. Meadow is first class when it comes to fashion, and Shelley will make sure someone else will take over the precious blog. Until then….I love you guys. Thank you for caring about Meadow and all of us who hold down the fort. xoxoxoxo
