My Favorite Things



We are getting so many new things in the store its so hard to pick what I am most excited about. We get several new deliveries every week and each time the UPS driver drops off a box we tear into it like it's Christmas! And although it was tough.. I was able to narrow my favorites of the week list down to 2 things.. a fabulous pair of True Religion jeans and an amazing jewelry line.


First let me tell you about the jeans. The True Religion Rainbow Joey's are a throw back to the roots of this denim line. The jean features a vintage blue wash with multicolored "rainbow" stitching on the back pockets. The threading colors are perfect complement to fall (orange, yellow, brown and off white)I LOVE LOVE them! True Religion Rainbow Joey's $262.00


Also early this week we had a visit from an amazing local jewelry designer Whitney Rooker. Whitney began the line as a way to honor the memory of her cousin who died serving in our military in the Iraq war. Her handcrafted jewelry line WTR Memory beads features wood, stone and vintage findings. The pieces have gained an amazing following and her Fall collection is stunning. She has used rich stones such lapis, jade and carnelian as well as wood and leather to create the most beautiful bracelets. While the bracelets can be worn singly they look amazing when stacked in chunky layers. And as a way to honor the sacrifice made by her cousin, 10% of all sales are donated to her cousin's family with an additional 10% donated to groups supporting the children of our fallen heroes. WTR bracelets ($50-$80 each) Signed Me{Mona}
