Paris In Spring!

What an absolutely beautiful day it was on Saturday for our most amazing Paris In Spring event. Thanks to all our great gals who came and dined in our outdoor sidewalk cafe and shopped their little hearts out! The day was an overwhelming success and its all because we have the most amazing people supporting our little shops in Glendale....

The tables turned out so sweet... we had vintage tablecloths on some and off white burlap and lace on others... in the middle of each table were sweet potted pansies all clustered.... you will also noticed our floral fabric lanterns... we had them hanging from the arbors, trees and all over the front of the porch....
During the time the gals were dining we put on a fashion show, featuring the latest arrivals of apparel in #2 shop.... the models most of which are our customers did a fantastic job of showing off our clothes.... they are listening to Meilan telling them what to do....
First up was Jackie.... in a beautiful lime green tunic, it was so fantastic with her red hair....
Then came Monica our #1 shop girl, she loved this tulip tunic with all the frayed edges on the hem..... Monica has done some fantastic decorating at #1 shop.....
Jennifer looks so good in anything she tries on at the shop.... but she decided to wear one of our new Chalet tunics and whispery soft sweater....
Gayle too looks so wonderful in our clothing.... she looks like she is ready to go to the Kentucky Derby in her hat..... she has a bluebird top on and our ever popular scooter pants from Tulip....
Kadja is our newest cottage garden junkie.... she has on a floral top from Cut Loose one of our favs....
Hanukah also is wearing one of Cut Looses floral dresses... shes ready for summer....
Merri is in an Apu ruby colored silk tunic... it feels so wonderful...
Breckin is so beautiful this girl could truly be a model.... she looks absolutely adorable in a cream colored Angie dress....
Sweet Linda is also wearing a perwinkle colored dress from another great company APU.... we have sold a few of these dresses to gals going to weddings....
Hazel is also wearing an APU outfit.... the tye dyed skirt is silk and is so comfortable with a yoga waistband, her little white hanky linen jacket is from Kleen.....
The girls did so wonderfully and we thank them for all that they did to make our day even more special..... we also had sweet little french signs propped everywhere....
I will be posting more pictures in the next couple of days.... there were just too many great pictures.....
