Thought I would try something different and introduce you to some of our lines here at Maggie Anne's by doing a Vendor Spotlight. This week I chose Jag Jeans because they are selling like crazy and they are a favorite of mine!

Jag is a division of Western Glove Works out of Canada which is also the parent company for Silver Jeans and 1921 Jeans. The head designer for Jag is Ann K. and she explains the Jag fit in her own words:

My family and I are heading out on vacation on Sunday, so I just wanted to say a quick "Good-Bye" and let you know there are some "Good-Buys" still to be had at Maggie Anne's while I am gone!!

So, while I am soaking up the sun on the Lake Michigan coast, I hope you are all shopping at Maggie Anne's and soaking up the "Good Buys" from our Semi-Annual Summer Clearance!

I just had to eavesdrop a little during our clearance sale that started this weekend and some customers told me point blank how pleased they are with the selection at Maggie Anne's. Some of the things I heard made me laugh, smile and of course a proud owner!

Here are just a few things I overheard customers saying:

"Oh my gosh, isn't this cute,.. Oh look at this, I love it..., Oh isn't that cute..., Oh wow - I love this!..." 2 friends shopping on Friday just loved everything!

I went to Cedar Point yesterday and what else can you do while standing in line for the rides or sitting down and resting after riding the Millenium Force (twice!), but people watch. Granted, I knew I wasn't going to see fashion at it's finest, but it was interesting to see the similarities and variety of clothing options...or lack there-of!

Another month has gone by so quickly and at Maggie Anne's we are surrounded by summer colors, prints and HOT weather! Summer items are selling fast and below is our Top 10 list from the month of May.

Check it out and look for them on our website!

1. PBJ jewel neck tee - 100% pre-washed cotton in a bunch of colors!

2. PBJ scoop neck tank - 100% pre-washed cotton also in lots of colors!

It's a dreaded job... cleaning out my 17 year old daughters closet! ... and it is a job I am in the midst of tackling this weekend!

Kids grow so fast and fashions change for them so quickly, what was in and a must have item last week, is casually tossed to the floor of the closet this week! So, when I asked her to clean out her closet and go through things to donate, she didn't jump off the couch and get right to it... and neither did I.

I love to watch TV while I exercise (it helps pass the time on the treadmill!) and yesterday, I was watching the Nate Perkins show and his special guest was Carson Kressley. One of the things they discussed was the 3 Fashion Essentials for Summer. Carson's top suggestions were:

1. A good pair of sunglasses - make sure they block out the UV rays. Maggie Anne's carries Brighton sunglasses which are UV safe as well as stylish. They come with a hard case, in several prints for you to choose from, to keep them safe while in your purse too.

Welcome to Maggie Anne's... and our exciting new website! We are  adding products daily so keep checking back to see what exciting new items are new to the sight!

Quantities are limited on some of these styles because they have been selling so well, but here is our top 10:
