From the My Little Bird website:
Save the Date–November 4!
COME TO MyLittleBird’s first Shop
Opp, a pre-holiday gift-shopping extravaganza!
We’ll be at Dock 5, the cool industrial-vibe event venue at DC’s
verrrry cool Union Market in the city’s wholesale district off New York Avenue
NE. 2 to 8 pm. Be there or be . . . very sad.
Who’s going to be selling at the sale?
Well, to start, the outrageously popular Scout Bags; Core 72, bringing activewear and lotsa gifts for the
active lifestyle; Yinibini
Baby, with cute cotton clothes; Erwin Pearl, whose accessories last month made their local
debut at Tysons; the National
Museum of Women in the Arts gift shop; Via Umbria, with fabulous
Italian imports; for guy gifts, The Grooming Lounge;The Cheeky Puppy (woof!); great selections from Sophie Blake New York,Urban Pearl and J.McLaughlin; Joe Elbert‘s hand-crafted
furniture, made from hardwood trees felled by the 2012 derecho. And how could
we forgetShoeLaLa and
the online home decor store Mintwood Home!? And more, of course–about 30 vendors.
We’ll offer skincare
analysis, custom-color
lipstick, rugs, vintage jewelry, and much more. Oh, and two tables of DC
authors signing and selling their new books (thanks to Upshur Street Books). [That's me!!!!!!!!!]
Have we forgotten something? Yes: refreshments from Teaism and Occasions and
goodie bags from Bluemercury and Follain.
So please come! Wander by in the afternoon. Stop by after
work. We’ll be there waiting for you. Bring girlfriends. Bring boyfriends.
Bring your holiday shopping list. (And on top of all this wonderfulness,
there’s lots of free parking plus a whole market full of vendors
downstairs–hear me, Salt & Sundry and Righteous Cheese?)
