Sister Act…

Yes, this is a little late this week. MY SISTER is in town!!! (Remember the Mrs Johnson who retired last year?) A good reason to come to Wine, Cheese and Retail Therapy this week…have a great time and meet my sister! She’s the queen of Retail Therapy! You can hear about my fashionista childhood! I will make this brief and hope that you will all plan a visit to us soon. Our store looks completely fresh and new.
We promise Spring is around the corner…have faith…
In the meantime,
Be Happy and Be Smitten!

What’s in store…

This week, I thought I would give everyone who reads this something to ponder and plan for. What’s in store for spring…not just at Smitten … but in the fashion world (yes, believe it or not there is a fashion world outside of Smitten!!)
It will soon be time to take stock of your spring wardrobe and begin thinking about what you need…
Leggings…Denim to be exact in black or blue denim. Despite the fact that many of us swore we would never wear them again…we are. Today’s legging are new and improved. They’re more substantial and way more flattering.
Tunic tops in all fabrics and colors … yes we wear these with the leggings.
The Trench coat…not worn as an outer piece …worn as a jacket and part of an outfit.
Color…pinks, yellows, robins egg and electric blue, orange and purple…and the always popular …black and white. Wear color boldly (as in a hot pink trench) or just as an accent (scarf or piece of statement jewelry)
I’m putting together a Spring Check list that will be available at Smitten … stop by and pick one up as you dream of warmer weather!
come see us soon…we’ll be happy to help you update your closet into the spring season!
In the meantime,
Be Happy and Be Smitten

Old Man Winter

I have had enough of winter. I’m certain everyone else feels pretty much the same. Spring is just around the corner…I just know it. In the mean time I have been busy planning Smitten’s promotional and event calendar. We’ve got some wonderful promotions and parties planned for the first half of this year. This week we are hosting are first (but will be annual) Handbag Swap. Bring us a gently used handbag and we’ll give you 30% off a new one and donate your old handbag to Pennies for Change, which in turn directly funds Durham Crisis Response Center. We hope you can join us and do some good.
We are filled with beautiful new clothing and hope you plan to visit us soon. don’t forget our Wine, Cheese and Retail Therapy every Friday 4pm to 7pm. It’s the best way to end your week or begin your weekend.
We look forward to seeing you…
Be Happy, Be Smitten and Be Warm!!!

Snow Daze

I love a snow day … notice I used the singular of the word day. Wow I’m going crazy and I went to work today! That’s right we’re open … if you’re willing to get to us. Want to dream of warmer weather? Come see us…we have beautiful new clothing for the upcoming (uh hum)…warmer weather.
We look forward to seeing you soon! Our lot and sidewalk is plowed and we are ready to see all of your bright and cheery faces!!
Don’t forget our Wine, Cheese and Retail Therapy every Friday 4pm to 7pm. It is the best way to end your week and begin your weekend…and after school being our most of this week…we all need to end it on a rejuvenating note!
In the meantime
Be Happy and Be Smitten!!
