LADYLIKE WITH AN EDGE.
Childhood friends, Ashley Baker and Carly Beck are in their second season of designing handbags that are classic, casual & effortlessly CHIC! Their Fall collection can be found here at MEADOW and every piece is amazing. I have yet to see a handbag line at this price point pay such close attention to quality and detail. These are truly bags that you will have for a lifetime.
After working 15 years in the New York fashion industry the two have joined together to form their collection of leather goods known as Sedgwick. The friendly duo debuted Sedgwick in Spring 2011 while working their current jobs, Carly as the brand director for brands such as Diane Von Furstenberg and Steven Alan and Ashley as the executive editor for The Daily Front Row!!!! The pair named their line after the county in which they grew up, Sedgwick County, Kansas….in Witchita.

The collection’s style is faint for both the ladylike and the wild at heart. Sedgwick prides itself on the value and quality of their leather handbags. They strive to create easy to carry silhouettes ranging from $250 – $600. All of their manufacturing is done in Manhattan, NY!
Here is a peak at some of the pieces you can find here at Meadow! I am honored to be one of the lucky stores carrying this up and coming handbag line and to be working with such talented designers. The clutches are to die for & they really hold all of the necessities for a night on the town! I have one and love carrying it out for a night out with my hubby or friends. They work well back to cocktail dresses just as easily as they do with a pair of jeans. This line is so chic and versatile!

I am obsessing over Of Two Minds Fall 2011 collection! If you haven’t already introduced yourself to this designer now is the time! Last year the L.A. based clothing line took on designer, Sunjoo Moon and the results are gorgeous! I have been following this line for several seasons and it wasn’t until this season that it really made a huge impression on me. The attention to detail and quality that Moon has put into each and every piece really is remarkable coming from a contemporary designer. This Fall 2011 you will see native prints, loose silhouettes, leather & textured knits…a little SoCal hippie meets urban chic is their style for this season! The jackets in this collection were particularly stunning….each style was luxurious & perfectly tailored! It was hard to choose one jacket from the collection…but this leather beauty below is the one I chose for MEADOW! I hope you like it!
ENJOY!
If you see something you like….you know where to find it!

It is no secret that the 70′s are back and with that came the BELL BOTTOM!!! For some it may be easy to pick up the trends with each season that passes, while others are sitting around wondering what to do with their skinnies that they are just getting used to. While I am a huge fan of my skinny jeans with an easy pair of sandals or boots, I am definitely embracing the Bell with a chunky heel or a fun wedge! Here are some MEADOW favorites that will not disappoint!
1. MIH Marrakesh in any wash
Jessica Alba in MIH Marrakesh
Claudia Schiffer in MIH Marrakesh
MIH (Made in Heaven)
2. JBrand Lovestory
Penelope Cruz - JBrand Lovestory
Brooke Shields in JBrand Lovestory
Don’t put away your skinnies, but definitely bring back the BELL! We have a variety of styles in stock now…if you want us to send you some BELLS give us a call or shoot us an e-mail!

This Wednesday is not only our annual Fiesta Frocks party at Meadow, but we are also having a trunk show & guest appearance from Ex Voto jewelry designer, Elizabeth Adams! Ex Voto is truly one of a kind jewelry that any woman would want to add to her collection. Elizabeth finds unique antique and vintage lockets, pocket watches, pendants, keys and crosses and brings them back to life.
Ex Voto is definitely something I am excited about adding to my jewelry box! I am currently obsessing over the long pocket watches….and know I will find more to obsess over when I see what Elizabeth brings to the show!
Ex Voto fun fact…..Ex Voto was included in the Golden Globe goodie baskets this past year! Here are a few pics of some of the necklaces that went out to the lucky stars and how they were packaged! I wonder who is wearing what???
Please stop by tomorrow from 3-7 and welcome Elizabeth to San Antonio!
Remember….10% of all sales will benefit Respite Care of SA!
See you tomorrow!

What I would give to have these beautiful Cherry Blossom trees lining our streets….GORGEOUS!!!
While cherry blossoms may not be in full bloom quite yet….it is definitely beginning to look a lot like spring inside the store! Being in retail I must admit I really do love the change of fashion seasons…even though they come months ahead of any kind of real seasonal change. By the time Christmas comes and goes I am beyond done with fall clothing and ready to see happy colors and fun prints hanging on the racks and walking in and out of our dressing rooms. In fact today was a great day to put my boots in the closet and break out my flops…my pale feet may not have thought the same…but I didn’t care…it was time to let these babies get some fresh air. It was in the 70′s here in San Antonio today and tomorrow the high is 78! Kind of ridiculous for January, but I am not complaining. I have market trips to fill my need for freezing cold and possibly snowy weather.
The end of January is an uplifting time at MEADOW! Our big sale has come to an end and we have brightened up our floor with vivid colors, tons of prints, shorts and dresses.
Tibi, Rebecca Taylor, Tucker, & 12th Street…..just to name a few!
Here is a sneak peak at some of the treasures we have been trying on lately……
I LOVE THIS LOOK! Everything about it….the 12th Street Sunburst caftan…oh so chic, the layered jewels, the wavy beach hair… This dress can take you so many places. A night out with the girls, a fun date with your hubby or boyfriend, or dress it up with a fabulous pair of evening shoes…(I dream of LOUBOU’s), take of the long chain necklaces, tie your hair up in a pretty chignon… and wear it to a wedding. Who wouldn’t want something this versatile in their closet?
There is sooooo much more to come. As you have heard me say before….Spring 2011 fashion is so very me & I get excited every time a new box arrives. Come see what we have in store for Spring!
