SuperCaron!

As the crazy weather strikes again, my flight to NYC for the New York International Gift Fair has been canceled. 18 inches of snow on the runway will do it, which is weird to imagine as we are sitting here in Santa Barbara with 75 degree weather! Luckily, I am on a flight tomorrow morning bright and early at 6:30 am to the big apple. I will be wearing my superwoman costume as I attempt to fly in and set up all in one day! My mom is also on a new flight tomorrow and we will be getting there around the same time. Say a little prayer to the weather gods for us! But I'm not going to let a little snow get me down. It all worked out and now I am going to the opening gala of the Santa Barbara International Film Festival tonight! NY Gift is going to be an awesome show and I am excited to see all of you that can make it!

Uno Alla Volta Catalog

Here is a pic of Diane, the Associate Buyer at Uno Alla Volta catalog, modeling a Caron Miller Ruffle Knit Scarf. The Black/White Ruffle Knit will be in their next catalog drop!



If you visit Uno Alla Volta's website they sell American Made artisan work and there is a Caron Miller wrap on the home page. This is the Party Girl Wrap - Crushed Pink/Orange Organza with Chiffon liner. This piece is absolutely amazing and so gorgeous! There are always Caron Miller pieces featured in Uno Alla Volta's catalogs and on their website and we love working with them!

Los Olivos

Here is Brittany last weekend in Los Olivos, CA in front of Details Boutique & Art Gallery. And what do you know, a Caron Miller Velvet Scarf in the window!! This one is called Pink Bisque Veined. Los Olivos is a lovely day trip over the mountain from Santa Barbara with tons of wine tasting rooms and cute shops!

Headbands in England!

Here is my friend Izzie that I met on my last horsey trip to South Africa. She is wearing her T-Knit Headband on the top of Ben Macdui, the second highest mountain in the UK. She says, "It is great when its too warm for a hat but need ears covered and keeps my hair out of my eyes." Very true! So cool to see these headbands pop up in different places around the world!

New Years - Rose Bowl

Our friends Belinda and Larry who stayed with us over New Years went to the Rose Bowl game on New Years day. Here is Belinda decked out from head to toe in red and white supporting the Wisconsin Badgers! And of course she is wearing a Caron Miller T-Knit Scarf in Berry. It looks absolutely delicious!

Store Sightings!

On our trip to Aspen, I stopped by a couple of our stores to peek in and say hello! First we saw Dancing Colours Studio in Carbondale, CO. The Ruffle Knits, T-Knits, and Velvets looked fab!



Next we went to our newest store Two Old Hippies in Aspen. This cute and funky store was representing Caron Miller with some Faux Fur, velvets, and knit scarves.


It was great to see some of my stores in action on the retail side of things! Thank you to all of our stores, we love you and can't wait for another great year in business together! xoxo


P.S. Email us photos of Caron Miller product sightings in your store or if you are wearing one of our pieces wherever you are in the world and we will post them on the blog! caron@caronmiller.com

Aspen

Doug and I spent some time in Aspen over the holidays. Everything was snow-covered and beautiful! We went with our friends Bridgett and Stefan from Switzerland and had such a great time.
