Chelsea visits Burlington

It's not the best picture but Chelsea Clinton was strolling Church Street this morning and paused right in front of Sweet Lady Jane. Just to let you know, today was the coldest week day on record for Vermont. It was minus (yes- minus) 12 this morning. Despite the frigid temperatures, Chelsea looked very stylish and was very pretty in person.

Mardi Gras

Here's a sample of the madness that descends upon the Church Street Marketplace every February. Mardi Gras is sponsored by Magic Hat and benefits the Women's Rape Crisis Center. You've got to see it to believe it.

Hoss accessories

Here's an example of the Hoss accessories that I ordered. Look at the details- the pintucking and stitching, the cute little pins, the jeweled clasp... They're amazing.

Outfit of the week...

Oh my gosh- we got in my little indulgence today- hoss-intropia. The picture does not even come close to representing how gorgeous this silk dress is. The details are amazing with this line. For example, the dress comes with a silk slip that is attached with tiny snaps, jackets come with 3 "Marni" like pins, and one dress has a removable, magnetic necklace! I'm in love.

By the way- I did order a lot of the hoss-intropia accessories...

More Hobo!

We got in another delivery of fabulous Hobo handbags. This group is the milano leather and printed python. There's an amazing large envelope style clutch, that I'm dying to get my hands on.

Confession

I have confession to make, I somehow deleted all the pictures I took on the last buying trip. Whoops. This is from the DKNY spring collection and reflects the trends that you will see this summer. There's a lot of color, long dresses make a come back, and dresses themselves are still very important.

We also bought for the fall season- can you believe it? We saw a variety of separates, luxurious sweaters, great coats, and more lady like styles.

Baby it's cold outside

Wow it's really cold here. Maggie and I are here for the Coterie show in NYC and we really didn't expect it to be colder than Vermont. Let's just say- I never wear a hat.

We found so many great new things- we didn't have time to eat lunch! I'll fill you all in with pictures and text soon.
