The Erin Has Arrived

The Erin has arrived and my dear friend Mary B was sweet enough to throw it on for a pic right before our one hour power walk!  I'm sure the last thing she wanted to do was change out of her sweats to take pics, but I am so grateful!  It's always easier to get a feel for an outfit when somebody is modeling it!  Thanks Mary B :)

The Erin in Navy and White is made of pique and cotton sateen.   

Also not shown, the Erin will come in Tan Seersucker with a Pink Bow Belt.

The Debut of The Elizabeth Anne

The Elizabeth Anne made it's first debut on Easter Sunday! Of course I had to change directly after church because it was 90 degrees out!  How ridic!

And I do feel cheesy posting pics of myself in my dresses, but for now-It's all I got!  Hopefully I will have models this summer!  The dress will also come in Pink with Green Ruffles and Navy with Orange Ruffles!

Hope You Enjoy!

The Fair is Ready for Action!

So all the samples for the Fair are ready and we are just waiting on tags to be completed!  Then they will be on the market!  YAY!  How exciting!  The Fair will come in Navy with white trim and Pink with white trim.  Here's the first one ever made in Navy.

We will have them for sale on Etsy this spring and summer!  Hope you enjoy :)  

"The Priscilla" in action!

Do you remember "The Priscilla"? 

 

Here it is in action on New Year's Eve!

What do you think? 

We're still re-working some things and looking for suggestions.

It will be offered in pink, coral, and blue.

The Fair

I designed this dress for my 30th birthday.  It's a cotton pique wrap dress in pink and white; perfect for spring and summer. I wanted something sophisticated yet fun and flirty for the big occasion. It's named "Fair" because that is my family nickname. The dress also comes in navy with a white ruffle trim and blue and white seersucker with a white ruffle trim.  

This dress was inspired by all the things that I love.  The pink version is perfect for a birthday girl who is turning 30.  When I saw the pink fabric I thought of some of my favorites things such as star gazer lilies, pedicures with any color of pink polish, my pink running shoes, the assortment of pink I have collected in my wardrobe, and pink elephants, the symbol of the restaurant my grandfather owned in Cleveland Ohio, The Pink Elephant.  It would also be the perfect dress for a shower-bridal or baby, horse race, luncheon, walk through the park or girls day out!  Its versatile style makes it a classic.

The Navy version with a white ruffle was inspired by my love of the water!  I grew up going to the beach to stay on our family boat and to visit Smith Mountain lake to stay with my grandparents so I have always had a love for anything with a nautical theme.  I think the Navy version would look great with red accents.  These dresses would be perfect at a family BBQ at the lake or for a peaceful stroll down the beach.  I got married on an island in South Carolina and would even have had these dresses as bridesmaid dresses.  Anytime I am at the beach or on the river my heart is happy :)

These pictures are of the sample dress I had made. 
Thanks for looking!

The Priscilla

"The Priscilla" is named after my close friend, and sorority sister whom I met at Roanoke college. Like me, she loves ruffles, and all things pink. She would love to pair this dress with turquoise accessories!

Here is the back of the dress. 

The front is in the works and will have a ruffle scoop neck collar.  I'm still trying to find the best look, so let me know if you have any thoughts!

The Brooke

"The Brooke" is the pink dress I am wearing in this picture. It is made out of silk and was named after my best friend and fellow "girlie," Brooke, because of her love for pink and Eastern prints.

The Lily

The Lily was created for my god daughter's baptism.  I wanted something I could wear in a church or to a shower for my god daughter. It is the pink and white striped dress below made out of silk dupioni with organza ruffles. 

The Annapolis

The Annapolis was inspired by my love for the water.  Growing up, my father took me to Annapolis several years to celebrate my birthday.  We would always take the ferry over to St. Michael's and spend a day boating.  This dress is cotton and perfect for a day on the water or for a day party.
