Canoe race in 24 hour day light

We have a fair number of mail order peeps up north in Whitehorse and Yellowknife.

Garnet, from Whitehorse, emailed me a few weeks back when we posted the new canoe print on the blog. She is doing an epic (in my books anyway) canoe race and thought it would be fitting to have a Squirrel Hunter Tunic with canoes printed all over as a reward when she is finished.

Here is Rose, our new studio gal, modeling the canoe covered Squirrel Hunter. Check out Garnet's super cool canoe race in the northern part of this great 144 year old country of ours. We are cheering on team #22. Good luck Garnet! Hope you love your tunic. Send us a photo!

Victoria Update: Mail Orders, Spring, Etc

Wow, where has the time gone? I officially started my Christmas shopping yesterday, and I need a few days to recover. There are eleven and a half more shopping days at Smoking Lily, but Rachael and Renee wanted me to let you know that the Mail Order Cut Off Date is here and now. That said, if the goods are on the shelf we can still ship them out to you, but we can't guarantee that it will get to its destination on time (we will put our effort in, but if it doesn't get there on time you can't get mad at us).

Today Stephanie and I have started talking about the Spring Line. I'm into colourful girly and Steph is into bold boarder prints. We have a few fun ideas, but we always like to hear your opinions, so let us know if there is anything you maybe wanting, any prints you would like to see, any colours you are lusting after...

Lastly, a new product! Glenda is super busy so it was left to me to take a product shot of our new UnderLovelies. Here it is. They come in two sizes and are made in cotton lycra blend. No elastic = no panty lines! Plum, black and teal.

Have a good week every one.

Cheers,

Trish

Another Lily Customer in Action

Nayla is one of our lovely mail order customers. She comes in to the shop when she's in town and keeps in touch via the website, blog and email when she's not. It's fun to feel connected to other parts of the country, and world, through our customers.

Here's a shot that Nayla sent of herself in the St. Augustine Dress - moody and sweet!

Fun Email

We received this email in from Andrea, a frequent mail order shopper, a few days ago.  I love her smile, when you look at this photo you just can't help feel the love. She was happy to let us share it with you, so we have a little something something coming her way.  If you have a photo to share us just send us an email.

"I bought a cape from you and wore it every day during the end of my pregnancy and I can still wear it now with a baby carrier.   This is definitely one of the best purchases a pregnant woman/ new mom could make. Several people have come up to me on the street and asked me where I bought the cape and I directed them to your site." Andrea.
