Hello everyone!  This is a little off topic but I wanted to share with you my most recent DIY (do-it-yourself-project) project.  The reason I’m posting this is because 1) I’ve found my personal interest expanding (beyond fashion) 2) everyone has some old junky piece of furniture that although its still good and functional the style […]

Making A Sale in a Hurricane

Whenever SHOPLadyBowTie makes a sale my heart leaps for joy.  It means I’m doing something right.  Something I chose for the store caught a complete stranger’s eye and they loved it so much that they had to have it for themselves. They felt that was the perfect thing to express themselves, to make themselves feel beautiful or special or just brighten their self confidence for that moment.  For me, that means everything; I’m doing something right for them.

I know, I know..its only trendy clothes and shoes and handbags.  Those things, material things, mean nothing in comparison to the basic needs so many families and small business owners need after the devastation of hurricane Sandy.    I had a really nice phone conversation with a lovely new customer and entrepreneur who is living in New Mexico but was for many years a teacher in the Philadelphia area.  We talked for a very long time about what was happening with the hurricane.  There is nothing like a natural disaster to give you a deeper perspective on your own life.  It makes me feel grateful that my family and friends have been spared and an even greater appreciation for all of my customers.  Especially for the sales that were made over this past week (Thank you!) all the while this hurricane was causing so much havoc up and down the east coast.

Each sale is so deeply personal to me.  I’m sure all the ”professionals” will tell me not to take it so personally but I do.   Every dollar I invest into this business becomes a dollar spent by another hard working person, and to me,  you can not get anymore personal than that.  To anyone who shops from my store , I want you to know that it means the world to me and to my family.  Every dollar goes right back into the business  helping to nurture it and grow it into the best possible experience for the next customer.  Each dollar also goes towards carving a future for my children with the hopes that Mommy’s business will set a good example of hard work, dedication and perseverance.  All values I cherish and that I want to deeply instill into their character.  And one day, if they are interested, I want pass it on to them.

Thank you everyone. Be safe and my prayers tonight are for your families and your businesses to make a quick recovery  from the storm and to remind you to hold on tight to your own bright future. ~LadyBowTie

Geeks nd Fashion

Welcome to the incredible world of personal style fashion blogs. Some of the most inventive wardrobes come from the ladies and gentleman who write, wear and create this type of niche style blog.  A few weeks ago during NYC FW SS2013 I met and photographed style blogger Julia Lang of Geeks nd Fashion.  Probably one of my favorite pics because Julia shared with me her DIY denim were she sewed in clear strips of plastic into her white jeans. Reminds me very much of my own clear vinyl phase, clear belt, clear raincoat, clear heels, clear backpack (you get the idea)… Oh the memories and so glad to see its return.

After checking out her blog more thoroughly I have to admit I’m a fan! Great personal style, inventive wardrobe and I love most of all that most of the pieces she wears, as quoted from her blog, are from stores that are realistic in price and accessibility for “every girl”.  I also appreciate her frankness of opinions on fashion events she attends and clothing lines she reviews. Good job lady I look forward to following your work!   Photo credits: Geeks nd Fashion and LadyBowTie

The Skinny on LadyBowTie

I have more than a few theories on style. LadyBowTie is a site designed to celebrate those thoughts on fashion, beauty, and fearlessness. LadyBowTie encourages positive self-esteem and freedom of expression through personal style. It also encourages a healthy relationship between fashion and your wallet. And last but not least, LadyBowTie is here to educate on aspects of the fashion and beauty industry through style news, street-style pics, interviews, trend/forecasting, articles, weekly series, and readers’ suggestions. ~Cori a.k.a.
