Red polka dots have arrived.

Dear Friends,

The Bernie Mev shoes you have been waiting for, the red and white polka dot flats, arrived today! Just in time for summer, you'll be comfy and cute in this easy-wear, easy-care footwear.

Also in today's Bernie Mev delivery? A wedge and a flat came in a warm metallic bronze color. This neutral color, one of their most popular, will take you from summer into fall.


The navy camo open toe wedge (below) rounds out this new arrival batch of footwear. Pair this color with jeans, navy, white, tan, brown... This possibilities are endless!

You are lovin' these shoes! They are three 'C's: comfy, cute and c**** (inexpensive).

Sunday Rose tag

May I also share about a beautiful new boutique line we received? Feminine with a vintage bent, Sunday Rose is designed locally in Marysville, sewn in Everett, and is making its debut at Renee's in Everett.

Sunday Rose Gabby lace cardigan

Sunday Rose is the culmination of a life-long enjoyment of collecting fabrics, searching out unique clothing, accessories and jewelry; sewing; and quilting. Each style is uniquely designed, and it's sewn with care. No two pieces are exactly alike. This line is pure local like no other I've found.

Dress up your sleeveless outfits with a soft Gabby lace cardigan. Or wear the cardigan with jeans. It's short enough to show off your back pockets. Available in mocha, cream and pink, these cardigans will be the icing on your outfit.

You'll also find lightweight linen and cotton vests in this beautiful new line.

Finally, we received Amy Brill's Nacho Ponchos and Ribby Cardigans. Amy's sweaters are completely made in the USA, knit one at a time, by one person, start to finish. All of Amy's sweaters are totally brill(iant) in design. These are sweaters that feel really good on all of us, however we are feeling each day-- the perfect partnership of an American company, and artisans, and YOU.

This tweedy yarn is 100% cotton. Colors are skipper blue and mushroom tan.

"It is my passion to create complex colors that anyone can wear. From true neutrals to vibrant tweeds, there is a color to compliment everyone. We work with yam mills here in America, where the yarn is blended, twisted and dyed. They make the colors just for me, and you won't find these proprietary yarns anywhere else," says owner Amy Brill.



"I design sweaters that are the perfect shape for your perfect shape. I am most proud of that!" Amy adds.

Great as a shoulder cover, Amy's Nacho Poncho can be worn many different ways. Scarf, vest, hat, skirt, this sweater comes with a stick pin that helps you achieve many of these styles. This poly acrylic yarn is the most durable of all Amy's fabrics, and care is machine wash and dry.

And that, my friends, is the latest on new arrivals at Renee's. Thank you for following along. I wish you a lovely spring weekend. Marlene and I hope to see you soon.

Sending love,

Renee

New Spring Arrivals.

Dear Friends,

Hello again! How was your Mother's Day? Bill and I went to Wisconsin to see his mom and family. We had a great time.

Lots of buildings are made of stone in Wisconsin.

An idyllic riverside setting in Wisconsin. Early spring.

What's new at Renee's? We received a fantastic new line called Niche. Niche is created by a mother-daughter duo in San Antonio, Texas. All garments are made in the USA.

Niche dress black and white stripe

Niche LBD (little black dress)

Distinctive architectural details, angular shapes and sophisticated sensibilities contribute to the beauty of the line.

Niche black tunic

Designer and mother Nilgun Derman is a native of Istanbul, Turkey, and holds a master's degree in industrial design. Her degree explains the "art-to-wear" style of the designs.

daughter-mother duo behind Niche

Business partner and daughter Ayse Derman has a degree in business, and helps her mother design an ever-expanding range of modern clothing for the stylish, world-traveling, fashion-forward woman.

I'm wearing these today!

Silver boyfriend cut jeans

New jeans are in from Silver in the boyfriend fit (your favorite style). Look at the playful rips in these jeans. I know, I know. Many of you have an aversion to new AND torn jeans. Try something unexpected. Project a new, spunky attitude to go along with our warm weather and sunshine.
