Ah, the red months! There are so many occasions to wear red from November through February. Red is a powerful color that excites and energizes. We can all use a little bit of that in our lives and our wardrobes. Whether you favor the warm or cool palettes, there is a red for you.
One of the most important reasons to wear red is in support of women’s heart health. Since our business caters to a majority of female customers, we want to urge our customers to support this cause in any way you can. February 5th is National Wear Red Day. If you can afford a contribution, great! There is a Sawyer Brook Fabrics Group at the AHA site. We hope you’ll be inspired to grab all your red fabrics from your stash or from our store and make outfits for this year or plan ahead for next! We’ve marked all the reds in stock with Wear Red and a link to the AHA site.

Black and White never gets old, and it’s fresh as can be this summer!! The high contrast can be interpreted in a number of different ways depending on how you wear black and white best.

You’ll be hearing a lot about metallics this season. Silver will be key, but gold, bronze and copper all play a role. We found this little gem in the marketplace that combines the metallic trend with the ever-popular cotton eyelet! Think tiered skirts with black or colorful tee tops, or use it for a bolero style jacket to top a basic black knit dress.
