Pioneer

How can I be a pioneer of buying power:
Its not that I want to be so HUGE that I live in a bigger home, or have a fancy car (or any car for that matter), or posh clothes. (that would be nice but not necessary to be comfortable)
I want from this business and life to be an equal contributor to my family unit, to remain a creative force in intimate garments, and make a conscious and daily effort to keep the purchases that I make to benefit my community and country.

How: Look at labels! Is the blouse you covet made here in the states, or better yet locally? Is that skirt you spy for that 1 event made in a way that it is intended to be 'throw-away' clothing? Make purchases wisely, spend a little more, in a methodical way such that pivotal wardrobe pieces become life long favorites in your closet. Search out designers in your community, they are there!

View your dollars like a vote. Each dollar counts, especially in this climate...rally your money to support your neighbor's business, have a custom garment made, revel in the positivity you create by buying LOCAL!
