free "reprise" shipping & ever enough [breton] stripes?!


happy august, dearies!

summer break is winding down at the dearie house. it's been a busy, exciting and eventful summer for all of us and i hope it has been one for you, too!

july found me diligently deconstructing and reconstructing on my special limited edition reprise frocks and they are being offered exclusively on my etsy annex for a very special price. and don't forget my special gift for you is free shipping on reprise dresses through midnight, eastern time, august 31st! enter the code REPRISE and enjoy complimentary shipping whether you are in the usa, canada or the united kingdom.

i am happiest when i have several creative projects going at once and this august is no different. for starters, i am determined to once and for all get pen to paper and finally draft a one-size, adjustable-fit waist petticoat. these under slips will feature the vintage laces, trims, and ribbon embellishment inherited from my beloved gran, charlotte. more on that, soon!

next, some homeowners choose to paint their front door a singular bright and bold color. but not the dearies! while we've enjoyed our classic white period entry, i have ambitious plans to transform ours into a decorative moroccan-inspired pattern. i guarantee it will be epic when finished, and look forward to sharing more before/during/after pictures of the whole process next month both here and on my instagram feed!

finally, did you receive your boden fall sneak peak catalog in the mail, yet? you already know i'm just bonkers for bretons, and while i love their newest variation on the traditional breton design, i recently scooped up two more additional colors within their classic long sleeve shirts to add to my collection: a pacific blue stripe and a bright plum. you ever have enough [breton] stripes!

but really, i'd love to know if you've you added any breton t-shirts to your wardrobe this summer and what you think of them?! 

until my next missive...
