My new favorite dress for summer!




Although the weather has been a little bipolar lately, I had experienced true warmth and sunshine last week and know that the sun will be making another appearance ,and this time for good. That's when I realized that I had only brought a winter wardrobe to Paris and I had nothing for the occasion.   My plan all along was to bring some of my favorite cottons to make into one of a kind, playful summer dresses when it was time.  This red and blue plaid comes from L.A. and is one of the most recent additions to my fabric hoarding.  Grant made the first bold move to cut into it and not too much later we were done with my newest dress.  Voila!

The puces revisited and a sartorial view of Judy





Last Sunday we ventured back out to the flea market with our friends to see what we could find.   Our friend Julia took us to a very cool store that specialized in all these key chains from the 60s, and they were all only a euro each. Not bad.  Right when we got to the good part of the market the cops broke up the whole thing so we didn't really find to many things.   We still had fun looking and of course judy looked as stylish as ever.

7x7




We were alerted to a very kind mention we got on the 7x7 website.  It is about some of our new pieces which have recently landed at Shotwell in San Francisco.  Michael and Holly are two very cool people who put their minds to work and opened an amazing boutique right in the heart of Union Square.  I think their wedding was this week and we are sorry we couldn't be there.  Here are some photos from their store and the link to the article here

Big thanks







So we have had a busy couple of days.  But our show went great,  we had a really good turnout and it all went very smoothly.  Thank you to our wonderful models Helen, Catherine and Illaria. A big thanks to Hanah for your wonderful help and Nestor as always is a brilliant make up artist.  Pring made the whole thing possible and her wonderful space provided a great venue for our show.  Here is some of the photos we have gotten back from our shoot last week. We should get some more in the next couple of days and when we get them you will get them too.  Thanks to everyone who made it out to the show.  Expect more updates later in the week.

Photo shootin



Today was the first day of the photo shoot for our new collection.  Jasmine our photographer knew of an amazing location.   We got a lot done in a couple of hours and the end result came together very naturally.  The owner of the property took us in for the day and she was sooooo sweet.  After she kept bringing us out coffee and tea to make sure we didn't get too cold she then topped off the whole thing by bringing us out a huge box of chocolates.  We don't want to give to much away so here are a couple sneak peaks.
