New Products at Bramhall & Dunn

The other morning i drove from Vineyard Haven to Chilmark in the fog and mist.  What struck me as i passed  the West Tisbury School was how a new shade of green had been achieved.  It was great to see the new  green leaves against the dark green foliage of established growth.    I was reminded me of the great "Green" window that Wendy designed for the store in Vineyard Haven. Speaking of new things, we are now carrying Pine Cone Hill linens and Dash & Albert rugs for the home and for the body we now have  Roberta Fryman kurtas  and Luna Luz dresses.   Come on in to check out our new items for spring and say hello.

A Major New Arrival!!!!!!

The arrival of spring always brings fresh ideas, new colors and a sense of renewal. Well in this spirit of regeneration we are excited to announce arrival of another Bramhall and Dunn store, this time in Edgartown. We will be located at #9 Winter Street and will hopefully open at the end of May or early in June. We will keep you posted as to our progress but we wanted you to be the first to know. Thanks for your support this winter and we look forward to seeing you in Edgartown.

Happy Easter!

Well Easter has finally arrived and things are beginning to stir on the island.  Seasonal residents are reappearing to open their homes and spring break students are paying visits to secure jobs for the summer.  In this time of financially insecurity and rising unemployment we are happy to say that our crew from last summer will all be here for the upcoming season.  Barb has emailed her return date from Marseille; the Julia(s) have both phoned and stopped in to say they are thrilled to be coming "home".  They will join Wendy, Rose, Robert and Emily for another summer here at 23 Main St. with some new faces to be announced soon.  Ah, another season is about to start and this long, cold winter draws to to a close.

Spring has sprung!!

Ah yes, spring on the Vineyard.  Days are getting longer and inevitably a wee bit warmer and a lot wetter.  I for one will take the warm, wet days over the cold, grey any old day.  So with the first few crocus blossoms come the first of the spring clothing arrivals.  This past week we welcomed  the spring Eileen Fisher, Johnny Was, Hartford and Newman collections.  Bursts of bright color on skirts, blouses, dresses and the first of the spring cotton scarves.  Combine these with the spring arrival  of Coal structured hats and cashmere beanies to make a new statement for the spring.  This upcoming weekend is the traditional beginning of the gardening season so check out the free plants and goodies at Eden, Heather Gardens, Middletown Nursery, Donaroma's, Mahoney's or Vineyard Gardens this Palm Sunday.  It is always fun to tour the nurseries and realize that yes, spring has actually arrived.

In like a lion

March on the Island is, well it is a happy-kinda-sad.  In other parts of the eastern seaboard, spring is beginning it's slow progress.   Here on Martha's Vineyard we often come to a place of seemingly insurmountable obstacles: rain, snow and cold.  April may be the cruelest month but March takes the cake for the worst weather.  As we hear of friends enjoying the first hopeful days of spring, we remain cold and damp.  Not to fear, spring is coming, just not right now.  Spring's arrival is never on our time schedule.  So we are trying to help by deepening our sales on winter clothing and continuing our White Sale.  It is time to move the inventory to make way for spring arrivals. 

The White Sale Deepens!!

Now, in addition to the 30% off White Sale ongoing, we additionally have a 50% off section. Check out the selection of sheets, towels, duvet covers, pillows and even rugs at deep discounts.   So as we begin to look forward to spring flowers and warmer temperatures, it may be time to spruce up the bedroom or bathroom.  Out with the old and in with the new! And don't forget, all winter clothing is now 40% off as even we have to make room for the new.

The Sale Season is On!!!!!!!!!!!
