and so it begins!

i love winter scarf

its getting into the holiday season, and i have to say i'm LOVING it. our 'i love winter' scarf has always been one of our best sellers when this time of year rolls around...perfect for the francophile and snowball fight lover...all if this is making me really excited to start on a venture with hats as well...over the holiday break i'm going to work on getting that together!

in honor of the impending season, i'm making a post of soem inspirational holiday items...

inspiration...

so i've really been pondering creating new products lately...scarves are definitely my favorite thing to do, but i'm wondering if i shouldn't add something else...it'll take some time, but i'm thinking about custom-colored lulette hats! and maybe something TOTALLY different like paper goods! i'm a meticulous virgo without a lot of time, so this will take awhile...

i've also had my nose in martha stewart living for the past two days! i never thought i'd be one to go for that sort of thing, but i LOVE it! i'm slowly turning into my mom...but in the meantime (while i ponder my fate of becoming my mother), i leave you with some inspirational photos for the upcoming holiday season:

meet beth!

you may have noticed a change in all of the photos over at lulette...that's thanks to our lovely new model, beth! she was kind enough to take time out to have a little photo shoot with me in a park back in cincinnati while i was on a visit home...i met beth this summer while she was interning here in nyc, and was instantly taken with her her amazing illustrations/graphic design sense and cute-as-a-button look...yes, shes as sweet as she looks! thanks, beth!

on another note, its starting to get chilly here in new york...last night, i went through my closet and drawers to change out the warm weather wardrobe for the cold weather one...it seems like i keep getting things, and my room just doesnt get any bigger. yikes! so i'm off to beacon's closet today to try to sell off a few items...i also discovered that i have LOTS of scarves! (i knew there was a reason i started this business...ha) i think the thing i love the most about scarves and accessories is that everyone can enjoy them: no matter your look/size/whatever. everyone loves a scarf!

keeping my fingers x'ed that it isnt going to rain while i'm headed to brooklyn...
