Thought of the week - The ALEMBIKA Lady

Last week I was asking you who is the woman we are all trying to dress. Who is she? How old is she? What does she do? I want to share with you what Ellie, from Chameleon in Sherman Oaks California, did. She put together an album of several of her customers who sent their photos. Words will not do justice to the joy I felt looking through them. So, I will just share them with you and thank Ellie for doing it for us. These are the women I want to clothe and look up to. And you, the owners and buyers, are the women who dress them all. What a pleasure! Enjoy! Happy Monday, Yael
