New, New, New...So Much NEW In Store! Special Finds at Folly

After the AMAZING turn out at our anniversary sale, we have been getting tons new in store to keep our racks full! Here are some of my favorite NEW things right now...So much cuteness! 

The perfect little hot weather tank! Light, airy...with the cutest contrast embroidery! 
Wear with your favorite summer jeans, or pair with a maxi skirt...extra adorable ;)

The Sarah Tunic has been a hot seller this season. Why? Because it's SO easy. One size fits XS-L. 
Wear with jeans, with leggings, or if you're little like me wear it on it's own with flat sandals!
It's even a cute pool or beachside cover up!

They're the perfect summer pant. Just trust me on this one. Buy one pair and you'll never want anything else on your body! So cute with sandals, heels or chucks. Cute with a tee shirt, a cute blouse...
Any way you wear them is cute cute cute!

Have somewhere nice to go? Or maybe you just like to feel your best ALL the time!
The Nora Dress is your new BFF. Comfy. Classic. Gorgeous. And just a little quirky.




If you're like me, Sarah, or actress (and Sarah's BFF) Kristin Bauer, you still get a little chilly at night even on the warmest of days! Well to get you through the rest of ever unpredictable Spring, and through those breezy chilly summer nights try the absolute softest sweatshirt ever!

The cutest little mini dress. Wear with or without leggings, up to you! Swingy, easy, light, soft. 

The perfect boho chic dress! Stylish with no effort. Just slip it on, wear some sandals and a messy bun!
Or dress her up with a strappy heel and some lipstick. You're ready for anything.

The Amanda is Back! The only color we have made this year... Easy. Classic. Pockets. You know the drill

I'm in LOVE with this tunic! It's so bright and happy. The totally mod/retro floral print is ADORABLE. 
Wear her with some white sandals! That should do the trick. Light. Cotton. Perfect!

New Spring Styles!


This tee is amazingly soft, with pretty little pleats on the back.

Perfect with your favorite jeans, slouchy or skinny!



The perfect little warm weather dress! Wear her to work with a cardi and some flats,

or bring her to a wedding with pumps and your dress up jewelry!
The straps are convertible too! Let us give you tips on fun ways to tie them.





The Nora is a Sarah Bibb classic! perfect for any dressing up you have to do.

Comfortable. Romantic. Special.
This particular Nora is easy to wear in a not-so-sheer silk...yes even though it's white!




The perfect light and airy cotton blouse. This top will make it into your weekend staples!



You will LIVE in this tunic dress all Summer. Seriously! Light, airy, with the cutest neckline.

The perfect length for leggings or not, and so cute with sandals or flats!




This Nora is so lovely. A little bit of shine, beautiful painterly floral pattern.

You can even wear her with just a half slip!




Made in Austin, Texas. Beautiful hand carved silver and bronze statement pieces.

So special!

Last but not least...





The PERFECT summer skirt. Easy midi length. Breezy and light. 

Lined. Girly, boho, casual, cute. This is sure to be a favorite all Summer long!

Vintage Style Slips Made in Portland Oregon! Why a Slip? Thought You'd Never Ask!


Oh slips. We love them SO much here at Folly! 

*But why? Aren't slips hot, fussy, and uncomfortable?*
Answer? NO. WAY.

Our slips are made from slinky, stretchy, light, breathable nylon milled in the USA.
They are machine washable
I prefer to use a laundry bag and cold water to prolong the life of mine.

We also use only the softest, prettiest lace. No irritation even if you have sensitive skin. And I do!

Left: The Classic Ava Slip in Black ($68) 
Right: The Erin Slip with Adjustable Straps ($74) 

And...they are incredibly well priced, ranging from $68-$74
That's a steal considering the fabric is milled in the USA, we cut each piece of fabric by hand, 
and they are sewn in store! Yup. From start to finish a completely ethical, USA made product. 

Here is a little picture of Ying sewing while Sarah looks at fabric for bridesmaid's dresses!

*But WHY is that important?*
Well Folly Girl, I'll tell you! 
Made in the USA means each and every worker along the way is paid a fair living wage
That means us Folly Worker Bees are paid fairly too!

By buying a product made in our shop, you are supporting a small business!


*What does that REALLY mean?*
Well, it means that I go home and feed my dog with food that I buy at a small, local pet shop! And then I go to YOUR favorite tiny neighborhood coffee shop and get my morning cup o' joe! And, well, that means these places get to stick around
Running a business is hard work and costs a lot of money!

Thanks for all your LOVE and SUPPORT Folly Girl!
XOXOXO

The Magical, Amazing, Mind-blowing AMANDA Dress!

The Amanda dress by Sarah Bibb is the most perfect dress ever designed! An easy short sleeve. Blouses just right while accentuating your waist with a thin, comfortable elastic waistband. The perfect just-around-the-knee length! Straight skirt that hangs just right and is never too clinging. With pockets! And of course in the softest knits only!

The Amanda comes in the perfect fabric just for you. Bold solids, fun prints, easy neutrals...we have it all :)

The Amanda in Cobalt is the perfect bright and sunny solid! This shade of blue looks good on everyone. 
Pair with a fun printed obi belt, or a contrasting cardi worn over her!


The Amanda in Black and Tan Floral is an easy classic. This dress and print will stand the test of time!
A little twist on classic Black and White, this print is so easy to wear!
Last but not least the Amanda in Pink Geo! A super fun and bright print on a black base to keep you grounded! Love this one. It's also made from a cotton blend! We know you love cotton!

The best part is...all of these dresses are Made In Portland! We have our very own "Factory" where our wonderful employees make these garments for you! Doesn't it feel good to know where your clothes come from?
