I love when fate happens. Anyone who knows me understands that I have always, since I was a small child, had a love for clothes and fashion. It seems only fitting that one of my closest friends on the planet just happens to own my favorite clothing and accessory store in the world. Heather's is a sassy store in Marlton, NJ with unique styles in both clothes and accessories (shoes, jewelry, scarves, bags, etc.), owned by my girl, Heather. The store is a wonderful projection of who she is as a friend, a mother, a wife, a daughter, a sister, and just as a person, overall. Heather herself is unique and fabulous, so it is completely appropriate that when she set out to build her "dream shop," that it mirrors a lot about who she is, where she has been, and where the shop will take her.
Most of my wardrobe comes from Heather's. I get stopped where ever I go, by anyone and everyone, asking me where I get my clothes from. The only request people ever have is that she would make another shop right here in MD. It would sell out in days from my co-workers and students, alone. LOL...but selfishly, as amazing as it would be to have a Heather's Clothing and Accessories right here in MD, it would be even more amazing to have a Heather, right here in MD...I miss her:)
Eight years ago (has it been eight years already?!), when I went shopping at Heather's, I knew I would fall in love with the shop. But how lucky am I that I also fell in love with the owner. She is a kind, loving, fun-hearted person who has been there for me in the good and bad times. She taught me that in life, "there are no rules." That you just need to live everyday to the fullest and not by the "rules." I think that has helped me so much lately. More than I can explain.
