Crazy about it!

So many of the FLY girls all ready know that you don't have to pay an arm and a leg for a GREAT pair of jeans! High fashion does NOT need to come with a high price tag! The Rising Starlet (skinny) jean from it! jeans is just $84! (That's less then what your boyfriend spends on a night out with his buddies at the bar!) At that price, they FLY out the door!We just got some more in stock this week, so if you were one of the FLY girls waiting for them to come back in... they're BACK! Along with these best sellers we received the denim leggings, the Hottie, the dive and Faith by it!'s In the Loop label. I have become a huge fan of the leggings, wearing mine today in fact! Come in and check them out! They are sure to be a staple in your holiday party-going wardrobe!

MORE VINTAGE!!!

For all you FLY girls that can't resist the one-of-kind draw of vintage, here's where to get your fix! We have just received a new shipment of great vintage dresses, coats, skirts and BELTS! Nothing makes a statement (or an outfit) better than a great belt! Not only do we have those great elastic gold clasp belts BACK IN STOCK that so many of you FLY girls were asking for (See our FB page for a photo), but we also have some great '70's and 80's belts too! Come in and check them out for yourself, or for a friend.... they make great gifts (all vintage belts are under $50)!

Fall Update!

Nothing is better than fall in New England.... tailored jackets, scarves, cozy sweaters and a great fitting pair of jeans! As our fall shipments arrive we can't get enough of all the wonderful jewel tone sweaters from Kensie, Lia Molly and Funky People.

Our new shipment of It! Jeans just arrived today. We are thrilled to have the great fit of the Rising Starlet (the it! skinny jean) in BLACK and INK (a great DARK denim). Not to mention the body all the FLY girls love, the DIVA... made for all the curvy girls of the world! We have a full size run now in stock. We are also carrying the It! premium label In the Loop. Come check it out! Oh, and for those of you who aren't familiar with the brand, they are recessionista friendly at just $84...gotta love that!

Let's not forget our friends at French Connection. The FLY girls that joined us for our French Connection trunk show were styled by our favorite French Connection guru Amy DiGiovanni! Fly girls who attended we wowed by the denim leggings as seen on Allison Scrivens (pictured above) with a great FC studded top. We had a great time trying on the Fall's hottest sequin trend and sipping on champagne. We can't wait for more French Connection to come in at the end of the month! Children of the '80's beware: it is all coming back this FALL!

I wouldn't be able to close this blog without mentioning that our new FALL Latico leather bags are here too! Beth and I totally geeked out when we saw them! They are as soft as butter and colors are to die for! I still haven't decided which one will be mine.....

And if you're walking by the window, please stop to appreciate all the craftiness that Beth and I did with the home-grown yarn tree and sky! It took WAY longer than we ever imagined but think it was worth the many hours and several bottles of Elmer's glue!

See you soon FLY girls! I'm BACK!!!
Happy Autumn!
