Marcia's Minute 

Well, we're experiencing our usual crazy weather fluctuations this time ofMarcia Lucas, Owner of El Interior year in Texas! Even though the cold weather is coming back in full force, don't let that stop you from coming in for our annual Preferred Customer Event. This is the best sale that we have all year, and if you're short on cash after the holidays, you can always use layaway!

For the colder weather around the corner, you may want to break out your Karen Wilkinson jackets--and if you don't have one yet or would like to add to your collection, please mark your calendar for her upcoming Spring Trunk Show. It will be the first weekend in March, and we specifically requested that she bring in a nice selection of Guatemalan fabric jackets this year, since they really are the perfect weight for the spring and fall. Not too heavy, not too light.

Amy and I are off to Oaxaca next week, so if you have any special last minute requests, please let Amy know before Saturday! We can always keep an eye out for something special for you.

We're in the process of giving the store a "face-lift", so stop in and see the new look! You'll also want to see the beautiful new window display that my very talented staff has put together. There is lots going on in the store, and we've already started to receive our new spring fashions, so you will definitely want to stop in and say hello.

We'll also be working hard this spring to update our internet system for ordering, in order to make it easier for those of you who are out-of-town. I love that the internet has made it possible for us to develop some wonderful, lasting relationships with people from all over the country. We're truly grateful for your friendship and support, and we hope to make it a little easier to serve you in the future.

Thank You for making last year terrific and Happy Spring!

Saludos,
Marcia Lucas
Owner
