First Crisp Feel of Fall! http://site.modmama.com/modblog/2010/08/27/first-crisp-feel-of-fall/ http://site.modmama.com/modblog/2010/08/27/first-crisp-feel-of-fall/#comments Fri, 27 Aug 2010 12:11:16 +0000 Administrator http://site.modmama.com/modblog/?p=221 lolasweater

Oh joy!  We stepped outside today and it was like a Macintosh apple!  Crisp and cool.  Of course, I used this as an excuse to break out the Deux par Deux knit dress and cardigan that just came into the shop.  Uber cuteness and really soft – now she won’t take it off!

Enjoy this crisp morning everyone!

Best,

Rachel

super sweetie!

Entrepreneur wanted for Mod Mama! http://site.modmama.com/modblog/2010/07/22/entrepreneur-wanted-for-mod-mama/ http://site.modmama.com/modblog/2010/07/22/entrepreneur-wanted-for-mod-mama/#comments Thu, 22 Jul 2010 12:34:27 +0000 Becky http://site.modmama.com/modblog/?p=199 shop

Mod Mama is in transition!
Becky, our manager extraordinaire is on her way to Boston University for grad school (Congratulations, Becky!)
At the same time, I’ve been focusing more on my Rocket 10 line and consulting – two things I am able to do while having Lola home with me most of the time.

With Becky’s school on the horizon, this seemed like the perfect time to transition the store to a new owner who wants to make it her own and is able to be in the shop!

We are seeking someone -
• with an entrepreneurial spirit.
• who would love to provide a unique shopping
experience for their community.
• who would like to bypass the early difficulties of
a startup and take advantage of the assets of an established retail shop.
• who would seek opportunities to expand and
create their own vision.

Mod Mama is a flexible and beautiful business and ready to be the canvas for it’s next owner!

Interested? Shoot me an email – I’d love to chat! rb@modmama.com

Best,
Rachel

Thanks to everyone who came out to the Providence Art Festival! http://site.modmama.com/modblog/2010/06/22/thanks-to-everyone-who-came-out-to-the-providence-art-festival/ http://site.modmama.com/modblog/2010/06/22/thanks-to-everyone-who-came-out-to-the-providence-art-festival/#comments Tue, 22 Jun 2010 09:18:38 +0000 Administrator http://site.modmama.com/modblog/?p=187 fest

Okay – so I did get rained on a bit (where’s my cool tent? I wondered.) But we had a blast.  Tons of new prints and new color tees, including dino onesie, which I love and some great new tees for adults.  Yes, I’m wearing the robot tee in this picture – hooray!

Missed the fair?  Come on down to the shop and catch all the new goodies.  We’ve still got them at our blow-out art festival pricing – $15 each or 2 for $25.  Cheap, cute and locally produced?  Oh the joy!

Cheers,

Rachel
