This was a high-tea (the highest in Springfield!) for princesses of all ages and oh how cute they were!

 A four-course luncheon was served and all princesses enjoyed a fashion show, dancing with Springfield Ballet, a silent auction and more!

Our models did a fabulous job and helped show how much fun we have at The Red Poppy!

Wrap One Up, Scarves

    

      The Fashionable Scarf


    Women can literally choose from a wide array of scarves which can best complement their daily attire. Scarves are generally considered as fashion accessories. There is a scarf for every conceivable outfit or need.

     They are useful in many ways by offering a certain degree of functionality especially to some types of individuals. If all you require from a scarf is the potential to keep you warm, then you just aren't demanding enough of your wardrobe. Scarves are the one accessory that will give your look some "pop".

     They can be a fashion statement or a clothing necessity in bad weather. They can add color or style to your outfit. They can make a statement or be a little "flirty".

From the long, flowing ones to the short and beaded styles, you can find just the right one for that perfect night out or for work.

    These days, scarves come in a huge variety of materials and sizes.  Some are short, some are long and some can be used as a wrap for your body. Scarves can be worn 100 different ways.

    So, when you are considering just how to create a new look or spruce up your wardrobe, consider the perfect scarf.

DALLAS HERE WE COME!!

     Dallas Market Center is the world's most complete wholesale marketplace.

     Last weekend we took the seven or 6 hours depending on who was driving, (we won't mention any names!!) hour trek down to the big D (Dallas) for market. For those not in the industry, market takes place at the Dallas World Trade Center every 3 months. The Dallas Market Center is the world’s largest wholesale merchandise mart, showcasing apparel, gifts, home and garden furnishings, lighting, and floral and gourmet products. A shopping paradise for designers and retail store owners alike.

   Our main objective for the trip was to familiarize ourselves with the vendors and showrooms that are all housed inside the WTC. By our aching feet and sore muscles, we can guarantee you that we walked from 8am until 6pm covering as much as we could and still not seeing it all! That's how big this place is.

     Our second objective was to keep our creative minds going. Looking for that special new vendor to bring class and style to our customers at affordable pricing! I think we accomplished this and you are going to have your socks knocked off this Spring!!

     Last objective was to take in some girl-partner bonding time! There's nothing like a little girl time to get all those emotions out, help solve worldly problems and just plain act SILLY!

     We had a blast, it was a tremendous amount of work but well worth every minute. We can't wait to return for the next market.

Leggings to LOVE!!

    The legging has made a huge come back this season and has made so many wardrobe pieces a functional possibility for every woman's figure.  They have a way of perfectly completing that dress or skirt that's just a tad short or that long sweater that's a bit too bulky with jeans.  They have truly become such a staple in our everyday wardrobe. 

   Not to brag, BUT we at The Red Poppy Boutique believe that we have the best leggings for EVERY figure.  Not a day goes by that someone doesn't walk through our door and tell us how much they love them and request another pair. Ladies, you can not beat our sleek nylon super duper spandex that holds all the goods in their place. :) We hear it everyday! Available in black, brown and charcoal and at $20.00 a pair, what's not to love?!  We guarantee they are the best you will ever wear!
