Do Not Miss This: Sid Mashburn Trunk Show

A few weeks back, Tara Maglio modeled for our Veronica Beard trunk show and helped make it a smashing success. She texted me a few days after her shoot and asked if I needed anyone to help with the men’s store. I am not even sure if her text completely hit my inbox before I replied, “YESSSSSSS.” 

She told me her colleague, Warren Quirett, would be perfect if I could talk him into it. Well, I called Warren right away, and he was so gracious and agreed to help us out. I explained that we really needed to show the readers of Alexandria Stylebook that there are plenty of fashionable men in Alexandria, and now we had a store they could shop at, Yellow Jacket.

Well, Warren was an absolute natural and, of course, played a hand in styling the outfits as well. I mean, his smile just lights up a room. We hit the streets of Old Town and had perfect weather for a great photoshoot.

I can’t thank Warren enough for helping us out and for making Yellow Jacket, and Sid Mashburn clothing look really, really good. I think we have found our model! 

If you love the clothes Warren is wearing, you have to come check out our trunk show with Sid Mashburn. Sid, as I hope you already know, dear reader, is in town this Thursday from 5pm to 8pm and Friday from 9am to 12pm. Sid’s master tailor will be on hand Friday until 4pm for custom orders as well. 

But Sid Mashburn clothing isn’t just custom; he also has great pieces that are off the rack and ready to go. His polo shirts are a top seller, and I wasn’t a fan of the knit marques shirt until I saw Warren wearing it - it was so cute I think I need it. 

Of course, the doors of Yellow Jacket are already open so stop in any time. We are open seven days a week. You can find our offering online as well; just click the men’s section of our website.

Owner | The Hive and The Shoe Hive

I spent the first part of my career as a copywriter who helped elected officials brag about their support for entrepreneurs. Then I decided to get off the printed page and do it myself. The Shoe Hive made a splash on the fashion scene in Washington, and was named the region’s best shoe store in its first year. Fourteen years later, I have tripled the store’s size and also opened a sister store, The Hive.  At The Hive, we offer clothing lines that are sophisticated and approachable like Rag & Bone, Tibi, Raquel Allegra, Ulla Johnson and Veronica Beard. We have tried to fill our racks with clothing you will want to wear all the time, elevated basics that are worth the investment.
