Just a quick reminder that the 15% off on Myrtle ends tonight! Pick up your copy here.
And thank you to everyone who ordered the pattern, especially to those of you who opted to get an early peek and managed to keep it under your hats. I’m amazed at how well it all worked, and I’m looking forward to more advanced peeks in the future for our patterns.
You guys are the best!

Strategic Renewal- I work in an office all day, but I am a big proponent of taking a lunch break. We get an hour and I’m either reading (outside if the weather is nice) or at the gym. It’s so important to get that physical and mental break from work for a bit.
I love the idea of creating the capsule wardrobe. I will have time to think and plan for the fall wardrobe.

I just discovered Un-Fancy in the past couple of weeks – I think it was via http://blog.imbreannarose.com/ – but I really love her method of creating a capsule wardrobe! I think her method, combined with the Wardrobe Architect principles, is something I’d really like to put into practice this year!! :)

I just finished my first myrtle yesterday for a wedding tomorrow, and I am in love! It is so clever, and the finished product looks wonderful inside and out!!
