Do you ARGO?

Many of you may or may not know about this cozy boutique tucked away off Maxwell Street. With very unique pieces, ARGO is definitely worth the trip! Plus right now they have some great things on SALE!

What is different about ARGO? Well for one thing some items are hand sewn here in Lexington, Kentucky. Also, they provide clothing that is sweatshop-free, fair-trade, organic, recycled, or vegan, and promises to be of the highest quality.

Max Rave of BCBG Coming Soon!

The store currently known as RAVE in Fayette Mall is becoming Max Rave by the end of August! Right now everything in the store is 50% off except for their new shipments of Max Rave / BCBG clothing, again, which will fill the store by end of August!! Yes, that means BCBG Girls and other BCBG brand shoes too!!!

As reviewed by many fashion blogs and websites such as Fashion Windows, it was announced last year that BCBG Max Azria Group Inc., which previously owned 30 percent of Max Rave LLC, acquired the remaining 70 percent equity interest from Guggenheim Corporate Funding LLC.

Max Rave, which currently operates 488 stores under the names Rave, Rave Girl and G+G, will be a subsidiary of BCBG Max Azria. Another step in BCBG's strategy of expanding brands and channels of distribution. The majority of Max Rave's stores and related selling materials are being rebranded with the Max Rave label.

Lovin' Louisville

Since I was born and raised in Louisville, Kentucky, I can't help but love when Louisville gets great press!...especially during Derby week! Food Network TV's Road Tasted guys, Bobby and Jamie, (who I just love!!!) recently visited L'ville and tried some local favorites - by the way, Jamie says 'Louisville' just right:)
