The Idea Farm

"Where do you get all these ideas?" I hear that all the time. From everywhere. From everything. From daily life, as in, I overslept this morning, have a terrible headache, and had to get ready for a 10 hour work day in minutes. Answer:a gorgeous green hounds tooth wool jersey. From customers:"My son is getting married, I can't find anything that doesn't make me look 60 and tired, or like I'm 60 trying to look 25" Answer:a silk chiffon and stretch lace gown that weighs less than a pound, and looks like a million buck (for a whole lot less, I may add). From the fact that's it's been freezing in May, and I had no great jacket to grab every morning that made sense.Answer:I'm working on it.. From the smart, modern, thinking grooving Massive Attack show I saw on Wednesday.Answer: Come see my Fall 2010 show at FTC on September 24th, but in the meantime, keep checking my blog and facebook page for updates as we make the samples for the show. And in the meantime, pop into the store for some of the great pieces that make that 5 minute morning dash easier.
