New Line! Dear Creatures

If you have an appreciation for vintage design and an element of fun in your fashion, you’ll be as bonkers as we are over the latest label to join Show Pony, Dear Creatures.

This soon-to-be husband-and-wife team (aww!) based in L.A. draws inspiration from the best elements of decades past. You might see a hint of the Roaring ‘20s in one dress and a nod to the ‘Mad Men’ era in another, but what ties all of these adorable designs together is their delightful element of whimsy and sweetness, combined with a refreshing and modern creativity.

The price points are fantastic, and we can’t wait to see how you like these gorgeous dresses!


Dresden Dress - $88

Sophie Dress - $126

Fountain Dress - $78

Lily Dress - $130

Piper Dress - $88

Sweet Valley Dress - $82

Be Our Valentine!

Hey Lovebirds! We think there’s nothing wrong with celebrating a holiday that’s about love, and in its honor we’re stocked up on some absolutely lovely things.

Have you seen the new Toms styles yet? The shoe company known for spreading love around the world by gifting a pair of shoes to a kid who needs them for every pair you buy is really showing its heart with their new (vegan!) Let Love Rule design. The new Black Glitter style we can already tell is already going to be hard to keep in stock, and for you traditional romantics, there’s the Classic Red Canvas.

Toms "Let Love Rule" - $54

Toms in Black Glitter - $54

What else?

• New shipment of Tuesday Scarves: More of the luscious faux fur styles (It’s still February, folks. Brr!), the elegant single loop skinny scarves, and lots of other new prints and textures.


• Prairie Underground: We just got our first delivery of the Spring 2012 line! We’ve got the Short Raincloak Hoodie in Lipstick Red (our new favorite color), the super pretty Mid Victorian Hoodie in Elephant, a really great neutral we love; and the Denim Day Dress, a casually sexy piece that feels great on. Come check out these pieces before they’re gone.

It's 2012! We made it! We'd like to wish you all a very happy New Year (you all looked incredibly fabulous throughout 2011, we must say), and share with you a few of the things that we're proud of from the last year:

• Consignment Heaven - We knocked out a wall, installed new lighting and expanded what was previously a rather dim and cramped consignment section upstairs into a lovely place to find major deals on great designer duds.

• Supporting local designers - In keeping with our mantra of “50% local” we have continued to be awed, charmed and styled to the max by the incredible talents of Pacific Northwest-area designers, enhancing your connection to the people who put their heart and soul into the products you buy through fun trunk shows and other special events.

• Community relationships - Throughout our 3 years in business we have been proud to be a part of the Fremont community, teaming up with other local businesses and neighborhood groups to support one another and foster a vibrant, creative, independent and safe place to shop, eat and live.
