We’re almost at the end of our Handmade for Him spotlight, and we’re looking at some accoutrements to up the style ante as we anticipate our show in just 16 days time! We’re looking forward to the show in part because it’s such a gathering of creativity. One of our fave local creative-types is Lincoln...

Status Update: It’s Wednesday and we’re talking Menswear! Hooray! What’s actually cause for excitement is the fact that we’ll have so much on offer for guys at our show, because let’s face it, there’s not nearly the selection in Men’s fashion as for Women in general, let alone handmade!

This week we’re celebrating “Handmade for Him” , since we’ve noticed a distinct lack of selection for Men at other markets. We’ve made a point since our first show to have offerings that appeal to Men, beyond the usual offerings of T-shirts, because everyone deserves to have something meaningful and handmade in their wardrobe.

This week is all about intention, with designers who think beyond just looking good and who ask deeper questions, designers like Kate Pierre, designer of kate&frances. We love the versatility of kate&frances, with pieces designed as a continuation of an idea (instead of a single, seasonal collection) and we have been big fans of Kate’s blog,...

Our focus this week is on Thoughtful Design, and today we are profiling Supernova by Blackhole Clothing! It’s always exciting when Lilliam comes to town, bringing her Supernova and Blackhole clothing lines in tow, because for as long as I’ve known her (which is over 20 years at this point), so much thought has been...

It’s Tuesday and we’re back at it, refreshed after a day off and ready to focus our intention on the week before us… and to profile designers this week who design from an intentional point of view: from zero waste to meaningful mementos, we’re meeting designers who combine thought and action. Today we’re jumping right...

Hey everyone, it’s Friday, the day after Valentine’s Day, and we all have a bit of a Love Hangover… but that’s ok, we’ll totally eat another chocolate thank-you-very-much! And the beautiful bouquets? Keep ’em coming, especially if you know Jessica Redditt, because she’s made flowers (and plants) an important part of her collection! We first...
