The Patterson Group Models Veronica Beard

Last year, we had the women of The Patterson Group model for our Veronica Beard Trunk Show. It just made sense. The Veronica’s of Veronica Beard are sisters-in-law who built an amazing brand together. The Patterson Group is also a family affair: Phyllis along with her daughters Brittany and Paige have built an Alexandria real estate empire. Their team also includes other strong women, our other two models Maria and Margaret, are just a few. I am sure there have also been some men who worked there; I just haven’t met them.Here is the other thing about The Patterson Group, when you need support on anything Alexandria you literally just have to call them. Our Powered by Women event this March is the perfect example. Alexandria Stylebook needed some additional support (okay, financial help) to pull this off and with one text they were in! They almost make it too easy on me.Truth be told, when I decide it is time to retire from retail, I am going to work for them. I am not sure exactly what I will do but I will figure it out. They are happy, fun, and energetic-- it is contagious.Once I lined up the Patterson crew, we needed a location. Of course, Britt knows where all the best properties are in Alexandria and so she called a family friend that opened the doors to their beautiful home. So, there we had it-- amazing people, amazing clothes, and an amazing location. I call this the Alexandria Stylebook trifecta.This year you will notice the clothes are a little more casual than our normal Veronica Beard shoot. It shows how the women of Veronica Beard understand that things have changed, and they have made their brand reflect that.The pictures are gorgeous. But I mean it is easy to make these ladies look good. I hope you will come see all these amazing clothes at our Veronica Beard trunk show this week. If you don’t want to shop in person you can always shop online. We can also set up appointments after hours, deliver clothes for you to try in the comfort of your own home or we are happy to FaceTime and walk you through the collection.We want to be as easy to work with as The Patterson Group.
