Every once in awhile we get an email or an Instagram message (some kinder than others) asking why we do not carry plus sizes here at savadyblog. I thought it would be a good idea to share the reasons we don't (at this time) and also to address some of the specific responses we have received. I truly hope this Journal post...

Earlier this month I went to Market, which in boutique world means you attend a fashion tradeshow to view upcoming seasons of clothing from different brands, designers, and showrooms. Market tradeshows happen all over the world (I was fortunate enough to attend one in Paris last Autumn!) and there is a tradeshow for practically anything! This time, I took one of our newest team...

March is nearly upon us dear friends and of course this has me thinking several times a day about flowers. Perhaps because all the seasonal blooms in France are sprouting out of the ground to meet the sun! Along my February walks I have come across crocuses, snowdrops, camelias, hellebores, wild narcissis, daffodils, and the intoxicating sweet scent of daphne...

Bonjour dearies! This week's new shop arrivals feature cozy and comfortable pieces that remind us of some of our favorite 90s movie characters, Gillian and Sally from Practical Magic.  Floral midi skirts, lightweight cardigans, and button down midi dresses make us feel timelessly feminine, comfortable and honestly beautiful too! (Shouldn't all clothing have that effect?) We love this movie for so...

This week's new arrivals feel quite fitting for the recent weather we've been enjoying here in France. Pouring rain, thunder, and sunshine meld together (in the same day!) to create the perfect introduction to the fall season. We can hardly wait to wear all the cozy sweaters, drink lots of spiced tea, and scoop up leaves to toss them into the...

(featured photo should be overall lingerie photo) Vintage and Modern Lingerie: An Intro Lingerie, or underpinnings, have been an important part of dressing for centuries as a way to shape and support the body. It has evolved as often as the clothes worn over them, yet some of the terms used in previous eras have fallen out of style. Thus,...

Imagine yourself in Paris at this moment, in the 4th arrondisement... It's Autumn and surprisingly warm for this time of year. You've just stopped briefly at Notre Dame and now walking along the stone cobbled streets along the Siene. You have your vintage inspired basket purse casually slung on one arm thankful it's roomy enough to hold your travel camera,...

Here at the studio, we understand that magic is a special thing which is found, not always given. You must look for it around corners and beneath flower pots, or take chances into your own hands and imbue it into the treasured objects around you. So how delighted were we to find these enchanting paintings by visual artist Kathleen Lolly! Her paintings evoke imagery of the...

Oh goodness, we've been slacking a bit on our shop journal! There have been so many new pretty and feminine vintage inspired styles that have arrived in the shop! Here are some pretty Autumn outfit ideas for you to consider. Pair one of our vintage inspired skirts like the First Edition Skirt with the Poems and Portraits blouse in a beautiful...

Here is a sneak peek at the pretty vintage inspired hair accessories and hats  arriving at savadyblog soon! We love wearing pretty scarves in our hair and the shop is getting an update of vintage and vintage inspired scarves over the weekend! There will also be a couple new hats and new wool berets to complete your French girl...

One of the aspects of savadyblog shop updates I really enjoy is curating the weekly "collection" to be released. If you've followed my shop the past few years, you know quite well these collections were 100% one of a kind vintage and then ever so slowly one modern piece would get thrown into the mix. The past few shop updates...

It's officially week two of the modern vintage inspired styles making a regular appearance in the shop! There are still quite a lot of learning curves for me navigating from just being an online vintage boutique for women to being an online specialty women's clothing boutique. I know, it doesn't seem like a big difference, at least as far as words...
