About

Hello, I am Anna. I live in St. Marys, Kansas, in the home my husband Jim and I built ten years ago, where we are raising our six children and filling the rooms, slowly and happily, with antiques, books, and pretty things.

I have spent more than twenty years in retail, buying at markets and running shops of my own, and I still believe what I believed at the start: a dress should make an ordinary day feel a little more gracious, and good taste and great value are not mutually exclusive.

This site is my home on the internet. Here you will find my dresses, stories from our house and family life, and the finds I recommend along the way. I am so glad you stopped by.

With love,
Anna
