New York Fashion Week begins September 10, followed by London, Milan, and Paris. Meadow Boutique has its own runway right here in Seattle. You don’t have to be in those cities to have style.
In September the fashion world is ready to put on a show. It’s Fashion Month! Designers, editors, celebrities, buyers—and plenty of people wearing shoes we could never actually walk in—are gathering to see what’s coming next.
But while the big fashion capitals are busy showing us what’s next, we’re much more interested in what’s happening right now at Meadow. Because you don’t need a front-row seat at Fashion Week to have fabulous style.But here at Meadow, we have our own philosophy about fashion:
The best fashion isn’t what walks down a runway. It’s what walks out the door with YOU.
Because real style has to work in real life. It’s the sweater you throw on when a Seattle morning suddenly feels like Fall. It’s the top that looks great with the jeans you already own. It’s that unexpected little piece you try on because Shelley says, “Just try it,” and five minutes later you’re wondering how you ever lived without it.
We’re never ready to give up Summer, but we’re starting to crave something new. A little texture. A great layer. A new pair of jeans. Maybe a color we wouldn’t normally wear.
And while the fashion capitals of the world are busy telling us what we’ll supposedly be wearing next year, Meadow is much more interested in what makes you feel fabulous right now.
And here’s the best part about Fashion Week: you don’t have to follow it. Trends are fun, but personal style is better. Maybe this is the month you try the color you always thought wasn’t “you,” grab the slightly bolder top, or let Shelley show you something you’d never pick for yourself. Sometimes the best things in your closet are the ones you almost didn’t try on.
And since we’re talking Fashion Week, here’s a little Meadow insider information. Shelley isn’t filling racks with dozens of the same thing. She usually brings in just 6–8 pieces of each style, which means what’s here today might have a very short stay.
Yes, I know—I tell you this all the time. But who am I kidding? I know how this works. If you’ve been shopping at Meadow for years, you know exactly what I’m talking about. And if you’re new around here, consider this your official warning:
See it. Love it. Try it on. Because somebody else probably has their eye on it too. There are no runway rules here.
Wear what makes you happy.
Wear what makes you feel like yourself.
And if it happens to make someone stop you and say, “Where did you get that?”
Well…
You know what to tell them.
Meadow Boutique.
Come see what’s new, try on something unexpected, and create your own September runway. No invitation required.
So while New York, London, Milan and Paris have their runways, we’ve got ours right here at Meadow. No velvet ropes. No impossible shoes. No fashion police. Just great clothes, a little encouragement from Shelley, and maybe something you never knew you needed. Come in, try it on, strike a pose and have some fun.
After all, every sidewalk can be a runway. I seriously miss this time of year with all of you! You are so lucky to have found Meadow Boutique, and we are just as lucky to have found you! xoxoxo
