1 Weekend, 3 Trunks Shows!

I guess maybe we should call this our “Kick Off To Summer” weekend, well, one is just Thursday and Friday, but still, it is going to be major. We have not one, not two, but three great trunk shows that will help get you ready for the summer season.

They all kick off on Thursday when we have Hart Haggerty of Hart Studio in-store to make her custom charm necklaces. We have hosted her a few times, and every time there is a line waiting to meet Hart and design a custom piece. She has different chains to pick from, then tons and tons of charms to make it your own. Hart will be in store Thursday from 10am to 6pm, and Friday from 10am to 2pm.

Starting Thursday, we will also be having our annual Krewe trunk show. We will have a special selection of styles on hand, and the best part, all Krewe sunglasses are 20 percent off for the weekend. Be sure to check out our lookbook - we have so many great styles!

Last but not least is the local label, Lilley the Line. Stephanie Lilley lives in DC and started her company after her friend gave her a present from her home country, El Salvador, of a beautiful bag woven by hand. These statement bags are durable and perfect for summer because they are made from the same plastic wire that is used as the blade of a weed whacker. You can literally just wash them off. I love them for sports, the pool, and the beach. It also supports a local female-owned business and weavers in El Salvador, where the bags are all made.

We will have an extended selection of bags starting on Thursday, but if you would like to meet Stephanie, she will be in our courtyard on Saturday. All Lilley the Line bags will also be 20 percent off.

Two designers in one week making appearances, how amazing is that?

So you can get your new shades, a new bag perfect for the pool and beach, and a custom necklace that you can wear in the water and waves and not worry about it tarnishing. All the summer accessories you need in one weekend.
