Old clothes, poetry, music and the beauty of the natural world inspire me to be present and yet transcend time at the same time. Every day in each moment we have the opportunity to create magic in myriad ways and for me clothing is such a deep part of that. What character do I feel today? What am I going to make and give to the world? An outfit in itself can be a work of art...I guess that is what is meant by style...how we collage together clothes out of how we feel emotionally and physically. It is magic really, the creation of a beautiful illusion that we present to the world that affects those around us. The ability to create is one of the greatest gifts we have as human beings, so in my small way I hope by offering wonderful clothes and old goods I can inspire those who come across my shop to dream their dreams and create their own magic.

RIO LOBO AND THE BRIDE OF THE WEST~

Here comes the harvest everyone! I am so excited about the coming autumn and all it entails with harvesting the garden, the weather turning slightly cooler, the leaves changing, Halloween, and toasty fire warmed rooms!
This past week a dear friend, the beautiful Nicole, came to visit Max and I from San Francisco and we went up to the sweet mountain towns of Nederland and Gold Hill to shoot some new stuff for the shop. The pictures turned out so lovely due to the beauty of Nicole and the vibe of the old towns and natural scenery surrounding them. I am so excited about all the new stuff as I mentioned last week in the Gypsy post and will be continually listing these items this week as well as a whole new batch of wonderful stuff!
