I finally got to meet the gorgeous Jules Reid at her Sherman Pickey trunk show this past weekend...
I hope Jules forgives me if I seemed hasty with my greeting but, do you see all those racks of frocks?
I needed to get myself into the dressing room pronto!
After about an hour of trying on just about everything, Babe voted for the très Jackie O Peony dress in Blue Dots...
While he generously handled my purchase I stayed in the dressing room scheming...
Scheming and plotting how to eventually get my greedy paws on the Flowing Kimono in Elephant Love Blue...
Annnd the Montauk in Light Blue Ikat. Never quite satisfied. Beginning to understand my parents years of frustration... Kindness of Babe for being sooo very generous with me, per usual. Also, for letting me know that my hair looked like I had been through a wind tunnel after pulling about 20 items over my head before snapping my pic. As a provider you're getting a promotion, as a photographer, you're fired...XXOO
If any of you lucky ducky New Yorkers make it to CK Bradley's Cocktails & Trunk Show report back in with your field notes please!
J'adore.
ReplyDeleteOoo such cute stuff! I love it! Great dress you ended up with too!
ReplyDeleteXoXo.
Oh, I wish I could make it in - but I am booked back to back, well, maybe that is a good thing, looks like it could be a dangerous stop.
ReplyDeleteLove that top, with the butterfly wings.
All I need is a Head turban.

love your purchase!
ReplyDeleteOooooooooo I dont know that I would have your kind of self control! Tell her to come and do a trunk show in Toronto!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a successful trip. Her clothing is tres chic...what fabulous colors. Sherman Pickey was one of the many perks when I lived in Georgetown. I am hoping to see more of JCW in Babe position (in front of a register)...that many have to wait until after business school. GREAT SCORE! xx
ReplyDelete... my mom wore tunics and trousers and jumpsuits.
ReplyDeleteI wish she had kept them all. She had an ensemble that she wore out to dinner and they told her no pants, so she took them off, her tunic instantly became a dress. Clever Mom.

Whoa! Me thinks we need more pictures of Babe on this here blog.
ReplyDeleteI walked into Calypso in SOHO this past weekend expecting to see the same rack of beautiful Jules Reid frocks but was majorly let down. Apparently they shipped them to Calypso in FL. Damn those color hating new yorkers. I love your pick/picks.
ReplyDeleteI am dying over her outfit! LOVE IT! Love that fab dress you scored too!
ReplyDeleteOMG, love.it!
ReplyDeleteI need an excuse to buy one....I wonder if I can talk my stepson into getting married.......
I love that you got to meet Jules -- isn't she so pretty?! And now I know why you call him Babe... ;) Wish I could have been there!
ReplyDeleteHow is the sizing??? I would love for her clothes to make their way up 95N to Boston!!!
ReplyDelete... but I neeed that dress... all of her wares were beautiful, wish I had another shop full of them. And I spy jewelry and accessories...
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. Can we have a photo of you modeling your new dress?
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, how is the sizing? I might be tempted to order on line, since I doubt there'll be a trunk show in Central Illinois anytime soon...
Yeah, we got to see Babe! What fabulosity is Jules wearing around her neck? It looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteeeek! It's today! Oh well, can't make it in to the city till tomorrow...your two scheming purchases...those tops are to die for! Will be on the look out for this fab designer!
ReplyDeleteJules Reid's stuff looks sooo beautiful! Oh how I wish there was a store that sold it near me! You are a lucky duck - great pick on the Peony dress!!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute picture of Babe at the cash register. :-)
ReplyDeleteLove Jules Reid clothing and love seeing her in them!! Those pants were made for her. LOVE!
ReplyDeleteBEAUTIFUL! You are one LUCKY lady!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it marvelous to have a husband who will not only sit and wait while you try on everything under the sun but who will ALSO handle the final transaction. I'm lucky that way too and feel so sorry for gals who aren't. I'm exhausted ALL the time now from trying to find a future husband for my daughter who will treat her as wonderfully as her daddy treats me!
