Going Local….

by ralinda on 12/03/2008

We received an interesting message to our blog regarding the seemingly unintentional impact of online shopping…..to local businesses.  In these tough economic times this anonymous message reminds us that while our choices may be prudent they still can have a very big impact.  Something to think about….

A message from a small business owner to their local community…..

“While the Internet is addictive and shopping online is easy, please remember that every click of your mouse is another nail in the coffin of a local business. Maybe it’s a business you’ve patronized since you were a child, or maybe it’s a new shop.  No matter how long it’s been around, it’s a business owned by another human being who needs your attention. Want to do more than pull an angel off that angel tree?  Pull out your car keys and help your friends keep their jobs. Go buy just one item from your favorite local shop, get a purse repaired at the cobbler’s or have dinner with friends at that locally-owned small restaurant. You just may be helping them pay their utility bill or keep their employees for one more month, but you’ll have the eternal gratitude of the proprietor and their staff.

Your local businesses are not asking for donations, they just asking you to continue being their customer.”

The Inspiration of an Icon

by ralinda on 6/01/2008


Catherine Deneuve and Yves Saint-Laurent, 1966

Legendary designer Yves Saint-Laurent died today at his home in Paris at age 71.

A design priodigy Saint-Laurent became the head designer for the House of Dior at the ripe age of 22. After launching his own label in 1962 he was a trailblazer in popularizing the ready-to-wear category and became the first designer to use black models in runway shows.

His “Smoking,” tuxedo jacket debuted in 1966 and became his signature piece which updated yearly until he retired in 2002.

He was an icon, a legend and an inspiration that will live on through many designers today and designers for decades to come.
