Holiday Traditions

We gathered with family and friends to give thanks. We stuffed ourselves (no pun intended) with all the Thanksgiving trimmings. We shopped at ridiculous hours to get the best deals. Now it's time to reflect on what the holidays are really about! Now that a lot of us here at Hemline are moms, we are thinking about traditions. What do we want to start with our children that they will want to continue on with their families? I remember being a little girl and waking up to the cookies and milk that we baked the night before being gone, presents galore under the tree, and "reindeer droppings" -  aka cocoa puffs - on the floor. My dad was a little out of control! Jenn and her kids wear new Christmas pajamas on Christmas Eve as they open one gift. The next day they get a new ornament to remember that Christmas by. When they are grown, those ornaments will each bring back a special memory. Those are the memories we will never forget, and they ones we will continue to do with our kids.
So what are your traditions? We want to know! And if your tradition strikes us as one we want to start with our families, we want to give you a $100.00 gift card to Hemline! Email your traditions to anniehemlinekc@gmail.com before December 12, and stay tuned on December 13 to see our winner! We can't wait to hear from you!

Black Friday? How About Purple Wednesday!

We all know about black Friday. Get up at an insane hour, fight a million other people who want the same flat screen T.V. as you (although there are only 10 available), and leave very possibly empty handed. OR, you could come to Hemline! We are celebrating black Friday on Wednesday- hence the Purple Wednesday title. Come in the day before Thanksgiving, November 24, and get 40% off your entire purchase! We'll be open from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Get your mom a pretty scarf. Your girlfriends some lip balm. Yourself? Whatever you want! At 40% off, you can't feel guilty about spoiling yourself! We hope to see you all here!

The tulip-style pant has made its way into fashion this season. We got in a silk grey style by Corey Lynn Calter that is really beautiful if I do say so myself. This pant seems to catch the eye of most every shopper that comes in Hemline, and the question that always follows is, "What would I wear with these?" While this style of pant can be worn virtually any way, from casual with a simple tank or sweater, to dressed up with a pair of great heels, we thought we'd put together some ideas on how we would wear it- paired with other awesome pieces from Hemline, of course!

2. Pleated Front Silk Pant shown with an Oversized Sweater by Kenzie, $68.00
3. Gold Bangle set, $21
4. Golf Ball Bead Clutch by Ricki Designs, $64.00
5. Lace Up Wedge Boot by Same Edleman, $129.00

TOMS Shoes "One for One"




We just got in our latest shipment of TOMS shoes, and we are obsessed! We think they're the cutest we've had, actually! And not only do we love the way these shoes look, but we love even more what they stand for:

TOMS Shoes was founded on a simple premise: With every pair you purchase, TOMS will give a pair of new shoes to a child in need. One for One. Using the purchasing power of individuals to benefit the greater good is what we're all about. The TOMS mission transforms our customers into benefactors, which allows us to grow a truly sustainable business rather than depending on fundraising for support.        http://www.toms.com/movement-one-for-one


And if the above is not incentive enough, get this:


"TOMS sustainable shoes are vegan friendly.
The uppers are made of either pesticide-free cotton, or a unique twill featuring hemp and recycled plastic bottles. The durable outsoles utilize recycled rubber, and the cushioned footbed has a canvas cover for comfort and breathability."


Women in Kansas City are buying Toms for just about every occasion they may have, from a shoe to wear day to day, to a shoe to wear with their wedding dress! We love the glittery ones for the holidays, and the flannel boots are going to be on every Hemline girl at some point this winter. So come to Hemline and feel good about what you are buying - a vegan friendly, organic, sustainable shoe that gives a child somewhere a pair of shoes. How can you not feel good about that?




Top Left: Classic Slip-on in Gilded Herringbone - $54.00
Top Right: Classic Slip-on in Black Glitter - $54.00
Middle: Flannel Botas in Purple Flannel - $79.00
Middle Left: Classic Slip-on in Silver Morocco - $54.00

We aren't surprised at how fast they are selling either, I mean, look at them! My personal fav is the Alyssa Expandable bag, it unzips at the bottom to allow addition room to carry all your belongings. What a dream come true!
