Our Picks From Ann Mashburn & Lizzie Fortunato

I have been counting down the days until this next event since it first happened one year ago. It was an event that was three years in the making and it turned out it was worth the wait. People were ready to come out and meet Ann Mashburn, and Lizzie and Kathryn Fortunato in person and see their beautiful collections. We had so much fun hosting them and they had so much fun being in the store and meeting all of you, that before the event was over, we were already making plans to do it again in 2023.

This Friday, April 28, please come by The Hive for our second annual Ann and Lizzie event.  Ann Mashburn from 10 am to 1 pm and the Fortunato sisters will be here from 10 am to 5 pm. Ask them questions about their lines or just say hello and make sure you grab a drink from the espresso bar from 10 am to 1 pm or maybe a sweet treat from Mixed Macaroons or Mae’s Market and Cafe.

If all our vendors were like Ann Mashburn and Lizzie Fortunato owning a store would be well, a breeze. They truly are the most gracious people. They are kind, generous, and so easy to work with. They want to see us succeed and are partners in the journey.

If you have a special occasion this spring or summer or just need a few new pieces to update your wardrobe, this is a great time to shop. Both Lizzie and Ann sent tons of items for the weekend. On Friday you can also schedule a Made to Measure shirting appointment with Ann Mashburn. You can book appointments to work with Ann until 1 pm on Friday or someone from the team will be there to help until 5 pm.

Of course, the best part (besides meeting the designers) is that all Ann and Lizzie items are 20 percent off. Oh, don’t forget next door at Yellow Jacket, Sid Mashburn’s line will be 20 percent off and we have Made-to-Measure shirting appointments with Conor from the Sid Mashburn corporate team.

See the links below to make appointments for all the fun events. I also had everyone pick a favorite piece from each line; there is so much merchandise it was too hard to share it all!

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.
