Spotlight on BLUSH Dot.......

Since it's introduction, the DOT Collection has been our most popular.  And our Blush Pink has been a hit from the beginning.  I develop all our colors in-house before they are submitted to our dye house for replication and final approval. Thank you for making "Blush Pink" a real winner! "He loved the way she bit her lip and her cheeks flushed that certain shade of pink."

When it's hot it's hot!

It has been so incredibly hot in Middle Tennessee this summer!  I live in my sleepwear around the clock so I go for the lightest but prettiest thing that I can find.

MISS AUSTEN REGRETS........

I love this movie (and ALL Jane Austen movies!).  Watched this one five times this weekend!  I am fascinated by fashion history, and that of the Regency era is one of my favorites.  I love the empire waistlines, the masses of tiny little pleats all around, the Spencer jackets.....plus all sorts of other details very specific to this period.   http://www.susannedietze.com/dressing-the-regency-lady.html The theme of the movie Miss Austen Regrets is her biographical sketch, giving the viewer insight into why she wrote what she did. I am such a fan of this and all Jane Austen movies. I have been known to...
