Words cannot say how much I love this. Emily is wearing my waterfall necklace design. And that's George the dog.

5 Year Anniversary Party on May 4, 2012

Save the date. Hope you can stop by. My boutique is celebrating it's 5 year anniversary, next Friday night, May 4. (I didn't celebrate my 4th year, because I'm actually shy about sending out these things... but, by God, I need to celebrate this big odd numbered one, because the artist's this month are ridiculously awesome and it's just time to have a party!) We're showcasing 3 Portland artists that night from 5-9 pm in three different mediums: Oil painting, Hat design and Ceramic art. Christopher Mooney is a well-known, celebrated Portland artist. His oil paintings are all iconic Portland scenes that he makes his own, in a realistic Hopper-esque way. His work has been featured at the Portland Art Museum's Sales Rental Gallery, and I'm so thrilled to have him for my Anniversary party and for the month of May. ElizaBeth Rohloff has been designing hats for years. She's bringing her complete Spring and Summer Collection on Friday May 4 and is also debuting her new skirt collection. Jeff Rainoldi is a ceramic artist whose intricate designs scream symmetry and exactness and just make any pasta taste better. But these artists are truly something, and the night is going to be fun. More highlights are the 50% off Rack, and 50% off select Suzabelle clothing (named Designer of the Year by Seattle Magazine.) Plus, jewelry prizes and refreshments always seem to be perk up a party, too. Thank you friends. Your support and kindness means everything. xxoo Anne

Think fresh citrus, sorbet, and luscious colors to add a little brightness to your face, spirit, and outlook.

We just got our new shipment of Suzabelle's Spring & Summer collections and gorgeous new jewelry and it sure does make us excited for a little sunshine and fun!

Sometimes it's just the little things. We may not see them at first.
a fresh crocus beckons you good morning...
a glint of sunlight casting it's glow on a rainy day...
a shiny pebble gleaming from a puddle...
the solar warmth bathing your face... and changing your mood.

From beautifully tailored frocks ideal for work, celebrations and backyard parties to casual shorts, all from our favorite Seattle designer. And adding new accessories can add that little something to take your look over the top.

Magical window displays, Bergdorf Goodman, NYC

Revery, decadence, romantic silk crepes, old luxury French lace, stunning sequined gowns with fitted corsets, dream-like fairytales...

Walk by Bergdorf Goodman's window displays in NYC 2011 and take in the wonder and magic of the season.

A little bit French countryside, old-school fairytale, with a tad of luscious, naughty luxury. Breathe it in. Succumb to the glorious dream. Relent to its beauty.

Decorative brocades, fine gold and silver threads, old-century French coquettish styles, glorious animals, rich fabrics, and the distinctive flavor of sophisticated French women in all their fabulousness. Thank you Bergdorf Goodman.

Give in to the magic.

Merry Christmas.
xxoo
Warmly,
Anne Bocci

Fashion tips for holiday season

Fashion tips for holiday season: Are you hitting the parties this season? A local shop has everything you need.

As I beg for more...

These words are my core...
The bow drawing against the thick current of strings, sending a luscious wave of low and middle tones swirling and swelling in a womb of warm wood before bursting through into the light.
Tug at my ears.
Buzz through my bones.
Ripple through my veins.
Tear my heart out and leave it lying bare as I beg for more.
Torture me please with a plaintive melody in a minor key, and let every note shake the foundation of my existence.
~ Bocci
