So Pretty will be a part of the VNA's Stately Homes by the Sea Designer Show House in Rumson ,NJ next month. We'll be in the designer boutique section from May 12th - May 31st. Come see us in person for some fabulous merchandise that won't be available on our website. We call them "show specials" - perfect for summer entertaining!
Here's a preview:

And speaking of show houses, has anyone seen
Grey Gardens - I guess that would be the antithesis of show houses?

I actually owned the
original Maysles brothers' movie sometime in the 90's. It was given to me by a
Conde Nast sales rep back when I used to buy magazine space for a living. I thought the movie was so interesting and heartbreaking when I first saw it. I was amazed to hear it was made into a
stage musical several years ago and I just saw the
HBO special with Drew Barrymore and Jessica
Lange. Did anyone else?

And finally, I have a special appeal. Please help me to support the Breast Cancer Cause. Did you know that every three minutes, another woman in the United States is diagnosed with breast cancer?
On October 10-11 2009, I'll spend the weekend walking, along with thousands of other people, in the
Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. I will walk the distance of a marathon and a half - almost 40 miles through NYC.
I'm very excited about doing it because I know it will make a real difference to the millions of people affected by breast cancer. Those millions include relatives, close friends, co-workers and neighbors. I’m walking with my closest friends from college. We all know someone who has battled this disease, many of us have had our own scares and we all have daughters.
The money raised goes to the Avon Foundation Breast Cancer Crusade, a 501(c)(3) public charity whose mission is to provide access to care and to work toward finding a cure.
All of my customers have been so generous, I'm hoping you will be again. Please help to support me and the breast cancer cause by making a contribution to my efforts. I know this is a difficult economy, but I have to ask. Every amount, no matter how small, makes a difference and provides hope. You can make your donation online by simply clicking on the link below, which will bring you right to my personal page. Thanks in advance for helping me with this worthy cause!
