Celebrate Sisters & Old Fashioned TENT Sale at Adrian’s…

17 07 2015

Stanley SistersWe’re celebrating the “Sister” relationship this week at Adrian’s Boutique.  We all get so busy that we forget to plan a day to connect with our “Sisters” whether they are biological, work or church friend sisters, classmates, cousins or Mother/Daughters.

At Adrian’s Boutique, we take a weekend each year to remind our clients to give your “Sister(s)” a call and plan to get together.

Of course, we would love it if you choose to meet or come to Adrian’s, but if that is not possible, at least get together for an ice cold drink, make a phone call and take time for a chat if they live too far away, and just connect!  It is always FUN to see the sister groups come through the store during this week!

If you’re a BARGAIN SHOPPER….you’ll LOVE our specials both inside and out! Check them out HERE: http://conta.cc/1O8XrTw

Please feel free to give us a call if you have any questions or if we can serve you in any way.

MOMS the WORLD

3 05 2015

On Sunday, May 10, we’ll officially celebrate Mom, and all the beautiful ways she influences our lives.
Here at Adrian’s we’ve curated a collection of gifts as unique as she is.

VB Spring Mothers DayAdventurous Mom…

You never know where she’ll call from next! Find a perfect Vera Bradley travel bag or handbag and see where her next adventure will take her!

Maybe your mom enjoys backpacking, camping, or “roughing it” at the Ritz Carlton! Whatever her style, Vera Bradley has a travel bag that will fit her needs.  Many of the handbags, travel bags and accessories are machine washable, so they are easy to take care of and will last for years!

You might have a daughter who is a NEW mom this Mother’s Day, and we have great baby bags, and travel items to make her new adventure a little more manageable!

Screenshot 2015-04-30 11.37.42One of the fun places I love to visit is the beautifully restored La Posada Hotel in Winslow, Arizona.  The LaPosada is the Last Great Railroad Hotel built in 1929 by the Santa Fe Railway for the Fred Harvey Company.

It has an absolutely gorgeous exterior, beautiful southwest gardens and the interior features large original artwork from co-owner Tina Mion, whose work is also featured in the Smithsonian Museum.

Their Turquoise Room Restaurant was rated as one of the top three restaurants in the U.S. in the 2009 Conde Naste Gold List. Their signature Black Bean and Corn Soup is a favorite of mine and we have posted the recipe HERE.

Tina and her husband, Allan Affeldt have lovingly restored this old treasure to it’s former glory and it is surprisingly affordable to stay here! If you’re ever in the area, be sure to book a night or two at this Southwestern United States treasure!

My four sisters and I are so blessed to have a wonderful mother, Ruth Novak Meyer. She has been a shining example of how to live our lives, taught us all how to work hard, to laugh and be crazy, and to feed people well!  She has a deep faith that has taken our family through many times of trials and I am forever grateful for her. She has lived quite the “adventure” herself!

I have posted this photo from 1969 several times through the years, but it is still one of my very favorite photos of my sisters and mother.  We were quite the crew back then…5 little girls, many times, thanks to my mother’s excellent seamstress skills… all dressed alike!

People always ask what “The Meyer Sisters” look like now, so have included our latest photo taken at our daughter, Jenny’s wedding last June.
* * * * *

Remember your Mother, daughters, sisters and those “Other Mothers” that are so important in your life this week.
Take the time to select something that she will love and we’ll do the rest! Complimentary Gift Wrap is an Adrian’s tradition, and we’ll have you out the door in no time!

Lokai Bracelet

Lokai Bracelet TT

Not featured in our catalog (but it SHOULD have been!), here is the story of the Lokai Bracelet from the founder…

Sometimes you’ve hit a low…Stay Hopeful. “A few years ago, I found myself in a moment of sadness, for my grandfather who had recently been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. The black bead of the lokai bracelet holds mud from the Dead Sea to represent this moment, when I felt at my lowest point.”

Sometimes you’re on top of the world…Stay Humble. “Yet at the same time, I was struck by a feeling of immense gratitude for where I was in my life. The white bead of the lokai bracelet carries water from Mount Everest to represent this moment, when I felt like I was on top of the world.”

Find Your Balance. “I brought these two key elements together because life is full of cycles. The rest of the beads are clear, because we all have our own story of balance to tell.” Pretty cool! Bracelets are sized Small – Large $18.99

* * * * * * *

We know TAX DAY 2015 is tomorrow…and in my book, TAX DAY requires one thing… CHOCOLATE!

Screenshot 2015-04-13 18.24.28

Here is a recipe from long time customer, Linda Stum of Hutchinson, Kansas.  Linda shared this recipe for “Sinful Brownies” with me several years ago and it has become a favorite! Very simple to throw together, and absolutely delicious! Rich, dark and decadent! Mmmmmmm! Click here  for Sinful Brownie Recipe.

***NOTE*** Due to the dock strike on the West Coast, many of our vendors have had trouble getting their merchandise into their warehouses so it can be shipped to stores such as Adrians. Even though the strike has been settled, there is a huge backlog of products that have been affected by the strike.  I want you to know that we have made every effort to get all product advertised in our catalog into our store, but there are some items that will have limited quantities or may not be available. My sincere apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.

We hope you had a great Easter with family & friends! Here are a few favorite Spring Finds that we think you’ll want to take a look at on your next trip to Adrian’s Boutique!

Chavez for Charity
“When we launched Chavez for Charity in early 2013, our goal was to create a line of fashion accessories that people would love to wear and at the same time allow us to contribute, in a significant way, to charitable causes we care about.

What we didn’t foresee is the impact this collection would have on others or how it would become a catalyst for meaningful, productive and sometimes very personal conversations.”
~Founder, Julie Marie Chavez

Each color of bracelet represents and also benefits specific non-profits around the world.  For example the blue bracelets benefit Water.org, the yellow bracelets benefit Alex’s Lemonade Stand, etc.  Stop by Adrian’s and check these out! $12.99 each.
