UGG Brand at Passionflower

Because we can't get enough of them.  Two more ponchos for the winter season. And these from our new clothing partner.  UGG Brands......best known for their sheepskin booties, they've expanded into sleepwear, some clothing, and handbags.

This beauty comes in a cream or a heather and can be found right now in our new Thanksgiving window.

And then some charming fairisle leggings for when you get home.
We thought these UGG pieces were just right for our Northwest style.
Hope you enjoy them.

Bedroom Details

So winter is definitely coming and that means cozying up indoors.  Which always means extra time in the bedroom.  For me that means more candles, bringing the outdoor jasmine inside  (I just LOVE a big tree in my house during the winter) and maybe a little switching out of the art and possibly a petit peu of new bedding. In the meantime here's some pics from the summer bedroom iteration focusing on the closet. I keep the inside of my closet door like a big collage, constantly changing.

         Fun blue painting I brought back from Mexico a few years back.

Absolute favorite agave rope bag I brought back from Guatemala in the early 80's. I like to surround myself with things from my travels.  Even better if they're handmade.

Local, Organic, Wedding Flowers in Eugene

 Oh and this happened too during our little blogging hiatus.  Just a whole lot of wonderful wedding flowers.  We had so many great brides this summer.  It was a spectacular wedding season.

 Maybe we should just call it the year of the big ass bouquet~!

And once we get that new website update launched there will be a whole gallery of wedding photos for you to peruse. We heart weddings at Passionflower.

Ponchos R Us

\Oh lambchops, what has happened?  Last post I was waxing poetic about summertime and here it is the middle of November.  Well what happened is my laptop went through some kind of nutburgers phase and then I went to Mexico for a month  (more on that later), worked on a website overhaul (during which I told myself no more social media until that was done)  and now we're going deep into the holidays.  Clothing has been coming in fast and furious.  And we are all about the poncho this year.

Huge stock, lots of neutrals, and some in big fuzzy plaid colors. Loving this reversible one from Pendleton Woolen Mills.

Shop it here~!

Summertime

 

I am such a waterbaby.  All my troubles just melt away.

Feeling all full of words of wisdom in my old age....and here's something I wish I had known twenty years ago:  You're only as good as your team, you're only as good as the people you surround yourselves with.  Case in point, the lovely Sara Blasi (in the coral dress above) who, you may remember, worked for us a couple of years ago. Sarah has gone on to be an extremely successful freelancer in Portland (trust me, easier said than done) and has had her work featured on a slew of wedding blogs and magazines plus Buzzfeed listed her as a florist to follow!  So how about that?  Could not be prouder of her.  She has a joie de vivre (that's joy of living for all you non francophiles out there) which comes through in everything she does.  Her images on her blog and instagram are always insanely inspiring.  And I feel so happy to have had the time to work with her.  Check out Sarah's blog right here and prepare to be amazed by her uber romantic, blown out flowers, and unstructured style.

Summertime

So many beautiful flowers in the yard right now.
