The table is set beautifully, dinner is ready, and you’ve just popped open a bottle of wine, when you hear the first guest arrive. You look down and realize that you’ve thought of everything, except your outfit. That sauce stained shirt isn’t going to cut it!
So what’s a hip but hurried hostess to do?

Easy, just grab one of these cute aprons from Edge and you’ve got yourself an dinner party outfit!
These aprons, or should we say dresses because you almost want to wear them like one, have been a long time Swank favorite. They come in fun funky fabrics and full styles to cover for those cooking calamities. Sure, they make fabulous shower or housewarming gifts, but trust us, you’ll want to snag one for yourself!

When a screen printing business that started out of one guy’s basement turned into a full fledged clothing operation, the results were funky affordable tee’s with an edgy independent feel.

Snap up a peacock tee and be ready to strut your stuff!

Sure every girl loves a sparkly ring, but we all know that while men come and go, the real truth is - girlfriends are forever. That’s why we love all of the great gal pal gifts from Mary Phillips Designs. Sassy, with just the right dose of attitude, Mary Phillips has a saying to fit every occasion and every girl friend gift need.
And did we mention that the price is right too?
For less than $20, you can pick up one of these cute wine glasses, like our favorite Save the earth, it’s the only planet with wine.

And for way less than $10, you can grab a cute coozie and still have a few bucks left to add a six pack of her favorite drinks.

It is almost Valentines Day and we’re hoping you’ll be ours.
Stop in and declare your intentions, we’re having a buy one get one half off jewelry sale January 28th - 30th. Plus all Valentine’s merchandise is on sale through this week!

Well, we want to know if you love us!
