Send a Fashionable Hello

Hanna Nation, owner of the stationary business GADABOUT, is making sure her clients say hello in style. In this interview we talk with Hanna about her ties to DC, her inspirations, and how her stationary is merging with technology. 

You have received coverage in DC publications like Capital Hill Style, Inspiration DC, and most recently with The Washingtonian. Any guesses to why your work has struck a chord with a DC audience?

Gearing up for ‘snow-pocalypse’

Yesterday, Washington, DC saw a high of 37 degrees. It’s only early December so I can imagine what the rest of the winter has in store. Today I wore two scarves to work in order to bear the cold weather. Jackie suggested that I buy a parka, or some may call a puffy coat. She suggested I try Macy’s and I found a really cute Nine West jacket that I like (shown below). So, maybe I’ll pick up one before “snow-pocalypse” happens again. If you have a great winter coat, let me know where you bought it. Comments are welcome! Thanks people

Hot Hair Updos for Fall 2010 was sent to us by Reflections of You Fairfax Salon and Spa:

Done are the days of tight chignons and french twists. This Fall's runway trends are a soft and romantic take on the grunge trends of the 90's. Next season's styling will be greatly influenced by the designers of Fall Fashion week. Upstyles this fall are undone and slightly messy with a lived in-slept on look. The noncalant effortless styles of this season are always chic and are very hot for your formal events this fall and winter.
