happy friday night to all. i’m excited to announce the winner of monday’s shabby apple dress giveaway: gina, the 9th commenter on the blog post. please email moi your snail mail addy and i’ll pass it along to shabby apple. congrats! a BIG thank you to each of you who submitted feedback. i look forward to counting up the requests to see which column will evolve into a weekly love note. stay tuned.

also, i’m over the moon about how yesterday’s fall photo shoot unfolded. below are more of the gorg images as captured by our photographer patrick onofre. the collection will release at TranquiliT.com in september and includes three prints {one is bamboo!} plus yummy structured organic stretch fleece. note our new shade of blue, chartres, in the lower left and upper right pics. the color is named after the angelic chartres cathedral known for its beautiful blue stained glass.

wishing you a beautiful, colorful, and tranquil weekend. bisous. x
