Meteorological Spring???

So here we are in March, inventory is finished and it is snowing to beat the band. I heard on some Boston TV news the other morning that the months of March, April and May constitute the meteorological spring. Interesting thought for the hopeful though we on the island know not to expect spring until May. Our sale continues and is enriched to include a 75% off section. Spring arrivals begin to appear by the end of the month and we need to make room. Come in for a visit and check out the savings!

A Beautiful Weekend!

So here we are at President's Day Weekend and it is a beautiful one, sunny and not so cold. It is good to see the streets full and smiling faces. Our sale has expanded to all clothing at 30% off with some exceptions at regular price and some at 50% off!! We have expanded the sale to include selected PF Flyers at 50% off and Il Bisonte handbags at 30% off. Our white sale continues until the end of the month. So stop in for these savings and who knows what else we will put on sale this week. Spring is coming, i am sure of it!!!

Giving Thanks

Here we are on the verge of another holiday season. Time and the seasons just zip by in a blink of the eye. It is appropriate that the season begin with a recognition of our gratitude for our lives. May I suggest making a list of all the things for which you are grateful as this will put you in the mindset of gratitude. When we are grateful we are also present, helpful and happy. Funny how this all works but it does. May I also suggest that this thanksgiving we try 2 new things: first find something locally grown that you may have at your thanksgiving table and secondly find just one thing you could volunteer to do for you community. Pick something that is for just one day to start, i am sure you can find something. This is a great way of thanking your community and supporting those who live there. So start with the gratitude "list" and with this in mind you can maybe move onto that Christmas list. Happy Holidays!!

Shop Local

Here we are in the thick of it, as they say. Holiday shopping enters the final two weeks and the competition is on for the coveted holiday shopper. These are trying times for all of us and we need to stick together to help one another through.  Certainly  we all have those times when we just need a Costco or BJ's or even Walmart for that year's supply of toilet paper or Purel.  But what if we all just took a stroll down Main Street in Vineyard Haven or Circuit Ave in Oak Bluffs, to the shops here on the island of Martha's Vineyard.  Come in to visit those of us who are staying open this winter in the midst of a recession.  You can find a great variety of gift ideas and we are all having great sales!!!!  Just think, by shopping on island you just may help to save jobs in our community.   Shop local and support our island economy; no boat ride necessary.
