Buddha's vacation

We took off for a last minute vacation to Portsmouth, NH this weekend and brought our dog Buddha. Some of you may have meet in him in the store or in previous blogs... We assumed that the town would be very dog friendly, since our hotel was. Well- we were wrong.

It was a really intriguing town, with some lovely shops and restaurants. A big thank you to Pesce Blue for sneaking Buddha in!

2008 Daysie Awards

As you can see, Kate and I are very excited to have won our sixth annual Daysie Award for the "Best Place to buy Women's Casual/Sportswear". We also won runner up for the "Best Place to buy Evening Wear." Thank you for all of your support and for the votes. We'll continue to try to make Sweet Lady Jane your favorite place to shop.

p.s. I'm wearing the new Ritchie jeans by James Jeans- love them!

Shopping for the Holidays

I just got back from another trip to New York. Even though I was really wiped out from the sidewalk sale, it was one of the best trips that I've had in awhile. I found so many great things for the holidays. Some of my favorite were: jewelry by David Aubrey, monogram necklaces by Pyrrha, chunky enamel rings and gorgeous wraps by Yarnz.

What a week...

Burlington celebrated the annual Sidewalk Sale this week and it was pure madness. It was the best one ever but the customers made us work for it. At one point, it looked like some sort of free wedding dress give away - people were pushing, shoving and grabbing anything they could get their hands on.

In the midst of it all, we got in some great fall merchandise: cropped leather jackets by Miss Me Couture, wrap dresses by Glam, the fall vintage Hobo bags (!), and a ton of Free People! Are you ready for sweaters?!

James Jeans

In the September issue of InStyle Makeover, Blake Lively is wearing the "Ritchie" jean by James Jeans. We will have these in a dark wash but we may need to get them in black! Because of the cropped length, they're going to be a great all season jean; wear them with flats now or tucked into boots for the fall.
