Our Latest Buying Trip & Trends

Carole and I have no problem spending money when it comes to buying new tops. We enjoy finding new vendors that you don't find in the chain stores. To keep our energy up we take advantage of some of the perks in the marketplace such as Cappuccino and French Pastries.
Some of the showrooms have models to welcome you.
  We are always watching what the industry insiders are wearing. Lots going on with the guys this time. Saw lots of skinny jeans, trendy tennies, fedoras, fitted woven shirts worn outside, and ties.
Fedora Hats are showing up everywhere for both men & women.
An "eat while you work" showroom lunch. 
Buyers REALLY appreciate this!
You never know what you might run into on the streets of L.A.
 This demonstration took place outside the Fashion Mart. Glad we weren't wearing leather that day.
Great people watching in the Mart lobby while enjoying an orange scone from Urth Cafe.
 This market Vita Coco was sampling their Coconut Water.
 You know you have arrived at L.A. Fashion Headquarters when you see this guy!
 Hong Kong Chop Suey...one of our favorite "off the beaten' path" downtown lunches.
It's always nice to work with designers who are friends.
