The Girls are Back in Town!

January seems to be Ladies Month around here… and we’re really celebrating! Lorrinda and I both had our birthdays last week, giving each of us a chance for girls’ nights out on which to don some statement pieces and cut-loose. Shout-outs, too, to our fellow January-born Fly girls, including Erin T. & Kat W. – we know you’ll rock out for your big days, as well, if you haven’t already! Following suit, we’re thrilled to have some other great ladies in-store to make everyone rejoice!

The latest from Fly fave Angie consists of two fabulous knit dresses. Both are great for dressing up or down and can definitely serve as seasonal transition pieces. In addition, we’ve now got some great belts by this “boho with an edge” label, including a black lace corset style as well as a studded style. Each embodies the mix of soft and hard we’ve come to love from Angie - leather and lace, baby!


Recent addition and new obsession amongst many Fly Girls, LouLou Bijoux, is back in full force! Tons of necklaces and bracelets just arrived, and we couldn’t be happier to share them with you. We’ve added a few new shapes from the most recent collections and think you’ll love them as much as we do:


LouLou’s pieces aren’t the only new shiny things to land in our jewelry case this week; new bobbles from Warren & Sophia and Bohm are here! Whether your taste in jewelry is big & bold, vintage-inspired, or glitz & glam, we’ve got quite an array that is sure to include something for everyone. Here’s a taste:


Now, looking for a bit of arm candy? Let us introduce you to Fly newcomer, Tamara Handbags. Created by Tamara Freedman Lord, the Boston area based Tamara Handbags takes style savvy and functionality to a whole new level. Appealing to the fashionable woman on-the go, Tamara’s fabulous handbags are updated twists of the essential basics, and her innovative and fresh styles are what make them standouts among the rest. Meet a couple of her fun & flirty girls: Andrea, Amy, and Amber…


So, come see us and celebrate the ladies! Be reunited with old friends like Angie and meet the new crowd from LouLou, Tamara, and more! Need even more incentive for a girl’s day? How about our Winter Stock Sale?!? We’re currently offering 50% off all clothing (excluding vintage pieces, which are all 20% off) and 10% off all accessories!

Joyous January to all!

Meet the Newest Fly Girl!

Happy 2011 to all! We're really looking forward to another fabulous year, and we're pleased to kick off the new year with a new addition to our team! For those of you who may have been viewing our product photos on Facebook and wondered 'Who's that girl rockin' the velvet jumper with sparkly tights?' - meet Erin! With her love of both fashion and Italian culture, Erin seems like a great fit for our boutique in the heart of Little Italy. So, without further ado, here she is, in her own words:

Ciao!

Hello, hello, everyone! My name is Erin and I am SO EXCITED to introduce myself as the newest member of The Velvet Fly team! I wanted to officially say hello and “scribble” a few lines about myself for all who are curious and interested!

I graduated from Boston University this past May with a degree in communications/public relations and a concentration in Italian. I then spent the summer abroad in Italy pursuing one of my biggest passions: the Italian language/culture (hence my use of Ciao… I’m seriously obsessed with all things Italian). Upon my return to the states, I moved back to my favorite U.S. city- Boston - and picked up a plethora of jobs. The majority of my jobs are retail-related, because I’m also clothing obsessed; thus the need for SEVERAL of them. I nearly cried the first time I walked into The Velvet Fly and saw that they carried Lia Molly :)

Anyways, enough about me! I’d really just love to meet all of you, as we share a common love: The Velvet Fly! I’ll be at the store mostly on Wednesdays and Saturdays, so, please stop by to say hello and check out our ever-changing and always fabulous merchandise!

Cheers and Happy New Year!
Erin
