Tons of love to Annie Shepard--one of our first ever customers and first ever volunteers--for keeping in touch from NY, NY, and for sharing some of our April 2011 Lookbook images on her blog project, Neon Mamacita. Check out Annie's great style here:

Our second Naked Lady Party was a huge success, not just for attendees, but also for the disadvantaged youth at p:ear who were the recipients of EIGHT big ole bags of cast-away clothing, many of which were perfectly fit for wearing or reseale!

I've been out scouraging the suburban shops hunting for anything and everything white and wonderful in preparation for our July 2011 White Magic Lookbook. These fine pieces will be hanging out in the closet, waiting to hit the floor in July with the rest of their all-white cohort. In the mean time, we offer them to you here via presales and as a heads up for what to expect!

Got white? Bring it!

We want our furniture collection to go away, so we've cut prices down to half of what they were yesterday! Please stop by 3816 SE Lafayette Ct. 12-6 to get your goods and to, perhaps, join us in a BBQ to celebrate Navid's birthday, which will run late!

In addition to our yard party and sale going on this weekend, all non-consignment fashion is 40% off in the space, which means most of what remains from our May 2011 Christian/Carnivale Lookbook is really cheap. And the $1-$5 pile is going on too!

We are 100% sure Kara Jean Caldwell from our March 2011 Lookbook and this month's Christian/Carnivale Lookbook is going to be an accidental star. After seeing her in the new PGE commercial--which, by the way, her casting story is totally hilarious, completely unintentional, totally serindepitous--we're certain that if she doesn't become a professional model real soon, she's going to become a famous actress just for being her own darling self. And she has the best mental health ever!

Isn't she just the darling-est? We call her the human noodle. And as a model she has such a diversity of expression, it's amazing. Everything Kara is wearing above and all the other non-consignment clothing in our May 2011 Lookbook is currently 40% off in our space for one last day, Sunday, May 29th. Stop by and visit us in the flesh at 811 E. Burnside, Suite 122 (around the back of the building) to make Kara's attire yours at dirt cheap prices as we clear the way for our June collection.
