Oklahoma

Something funny happens the first time a client attends one of our trunks shows.

They walk in. Look around. Look at me. Look around again. And, then, we hug.

It's like years of painful shopping memories are erased because finally, finally, they can shop "off-the-rack."

Inevitably, we then have a conversation about where they played college sports, what size shoe they wear, their inseam, if their spouse/loved one is taller and whether they'll wear heels.

Owning your own business has its share of ups-and-downs. But, it's these moments, when you connect with clients over having to wear men's jeans, bad prom dresses and shoes that don't fit, that you know it's all worth it.

OKC tall chicks do indeed rule.
