Post Holiday Slump

Criminy. I am worn out. The holidays seem never ending this year and I have never been so happy to see January 2nd hit. I can't wait to eat vegetables that are not swimming in butter, to clean up my holiday decorations (some of us are slow to take down our Christmas trees), and to hermit myself for a few weeks. Sorry if I told you we would hang out... I am busy.
I think this is the best time to put on one of our Acrobat cardigans and relax.
We got a big shipment in small, medium and large from a consignor and everyone who works here has them. We throw them on over a summery dress with a pair of tights, with jeans and a tee, or over our pajamas as soon as we get home from work.
Happy relaxing!

Who doesn't love Twilight?

Some of us around here may have gotten a little into Twilight... There is something absolutely addicting about plot-driven books about teen love (and plenty o' angst) and the national teenage obsession that came with it.
Also, we liked this shirt when it was brought to us...
What we didn't know is it was worn by Bella Swan in the first Twilight movie...
And that people would be willing to spend over $250 for it. See it for sale on ebay.
Fans are even talking about it on coolspotters.com.

Even though we are far from our teens (and obviously unaware that clothes worn by the cast of Twilight are worth their weight in diamonds), being a part of teen fanaticism makes us feel a little hipper.
So, thanks, kids. We will watch those movies diligently and find you more!
P.S. Team Edward... The heart wants what the heart wants and no number of shirt-ripping-off, hot teen werewolves will influence Bella's feelings.
Merry Christmas!

Hey everyone!
The Modo is going to be closed Christmas Eve and Christmas Day to spend some quality time with our fams. We hope the hustle-bustle of the season has passed and you are able to just enjoy the people who mean most to you.
That is exactly what we plan to do...
The store will open back up on Saturday, December 26th from 12-4, for all of your after-holiday-shopping needs (my personal favorite shopping day of the year).

If you have been in the store much - you will notice that all of us who work here have a thing for cardigans. There is just something about putting on a cute shirt or dress and wrapping it in a giant sweater.
Not sure how to wear them? Come in the store and we will help you put together a perfect, cozy outfit.
What I want for Christmas

Every day, one of my generous friends or family members ask what I want for Christmas. Usually, I will tell them something I need: books, kitchen utensils, tights, or a chapstick that actually works.
And I do need those things.
But, when it comes to what I want, my list changes dramatically.
Practicality is totally overrated.
I want this Hartford Scarf for next spring:
And this Coal Alpaca Scarf for right now
And since this is just a wish list and I am not expecting anything this extravagant (but, if someone really, really wanted to express their love for me through monetary indulgence), I would love these boots by Chie Mihara
And this bag by Filippa Sweet

And some jewelry by Flossy, Betsy and Iya, Honey-Love, Nettie Kent, and Recycled Time.
Wow.
I went to far, didn't I?
Ok, but I NEED these earrings by Betsy and Iya
P.S. We hope to see you tomorrow from 4-7 at our Holiday Party!
