Dear Readers,
We are excited about our fall collection at Renee's! One of the eye-catching new lines we've brought in for the season is Wooden Ships sweaters and accessories.
Getting Started. Colombian-born designer Paola Buendia and her husband, Mark Donovan, founded wooden ships in 1992. The couple met as undergraduates at Harvard. Spurred by a four-month trip to Bali, they founded the company two years after graduation.
Comfort Food. Paola: There is something so comforting about knits. For me, looking good is totally connected to feeling comfortable. Plus knits have a slouchiness that makes them immediately casual, and that is very much my style. I love fashion but not necessarily the fashion world, so I love that within that, Wooden Ships gets to be the "comfort food." Who doesn’t love a snuggly beret and mittens? It’s primal!
Customers. Mark: We receive so many emails from consumers telling us about a favorite wooden ships piece they have loved almost to bits. I actually keep a file where I save the messages that say "wow." We want to do a great job for our customers.
Gifts. Renee: I love these light weight sweaters and the fun accessories. Everything in this line will make wonderful gifts: mittens, fingerless gloves, hats, scarves and above all, sweaters. We are carrying all the styles pictured here in a variety of colors.
Come visit Renee's and take a peek. Cooler weather is just around the corner, and you'll love to throw on a Wooden Ships sweater when it hits.
With love,
Renee
