mai, owner of one of my favorite stores, the fusion boutique sent me a link to her new blog, and it looks like she’s been a busy girl. she’s mixing it up a bit and buying up new inventory. she even ran into one of the designers from urban outfitters and is offering a couple of her pieces at a mere fraction of the price. the joy!
i adore this featured outfit…

less than $100! i have that dress in aqua and it’s SO sweet. now i need the wedges ($22.99).
and this minidress, too ($29.99)…

it makes me want to frolic. i really need to get down to some serious frolicking right about now. nothing a good frolicking can’t cure.

I’ve ordered from Fusion twice now–2 of my daughters picked a dress from her store recently, and Mai has been really helpful sending me actual measurements to choose the best sizes. She’s great to work with, highly recommended!
Okay, I must comment additionally on my latest purchase. Being rather impulsive, and desperate for warm weather, I was impressed by the piece on culottes and the amazing $19.99 price on Fusion’s kangaroo culottes. They just arrived and I am wearing them as I say, “Fabulous!” The fabric is lovely and the outfit has charming details. I ordered a Large, so it fits loosely and dresslike on me (I’m not quite so young and slim as our pretty twins) but I think it would be flattering if it were more form-fitting as well. I’m delighted! Great find, Mai! I plan to be cute and cool in them this July!
