Shop Local with the Daymakers

Your Daymakers are planning on shopping local tomorrow - we're calling it a Local Black Out shopping day.

We'll be ice skating downtown at Tollefson Plaza at 5 pm and joining the Christmas Tree lighting at 6 pm.

This is your invitation to join us. Shop local this holiday season and start tomorrow with us!

Plaid: It's Not Just Grunge Anymore

Stepping out this morning, the first thing I saw was my breath. These days make me yearn for warm items. I like to turn to plaid. The rich hues and deep colors create a sense of snuggly delight, but I want to stay on trend - I've decided to stop living in the '90s.

The Fall/Winter collections were FULL of plaid. The tartan was turned into sweaters, pants, scarves, and so much more. This year even saw a wrap-around dress made of delicious plum themed plaid. And there were some classically silhouetted dresses perked up by the always fun plaid. And, of course, lovely thick coats to wrap around and ward off the cold winds.

So, while we here in the Pacific Northwest have been famous for our love of all things plaid, we can join with the rest of the world and put a trend-setting, fashion forward spin to it. Check out millionlooks.com for some inspiration.

Take a look in some local shops, Vanity, Megs & Mo, or anyone of the Shopgirls of Tacoma to see what pieces you just need to add to your wardrobe for the season.

School Shopping!!

Nothing smells quite like a freshly opened box of Crayolas. Now is the time that parents are toting kids from store to store stocking up on notebooks, multiple boxes of Kleenex, #2 pencils, boxes of bic pens, back packs etc. We at Embellish have already offered a spectacular 253 Deal of the Week but would also like to encourage you to continue to Go Local and pop on by some of your local small businesses to round out your back to school clothing needs.

Some of our favorites are Orange on 6th, Vanity, London Couture, Nine Lives Vintage UrbanXchange and many, many more. What's your favorite local shop to peruse racks for Back to School purposes?!? Leave a comment below and let us know!!
