The Philosophy of Mask-Wearing 🤔

by Karen Goddard May 23, 2020

I believe it's about being thoughtful and kind to your fellow human beings. It's as simple as that.

You protect me. I protect you.

by Karen Goddard May 21, 2020

We did not have a page in our procedures manual about what to do in the event that the store has to close for 2 1/2 months in order to slow the spread of a virus. 😉🙂😛

So... thank you all for your patience, kind words and support while we continue to figure this out. 😍

M&C Has a Social Responsibility to Stay Closed for Another Couple of Weeks

by Karen Goddard May 06, 2020

We have built a business model that invites folks to stay, enjoy the music, make a new friend, and browse. We are all starving for that right now, but now is NOT the time for that. That time will be back. It won't be exactly the same.... but we'll be together again.

Air pollution kills and shortens our lives, and is just bad for the entire planet. We are breathing better, right now, and seeing farther off in to the distance than we have in recent years.

Get inspired.

Look through magazines, style blogs or Google for some style ideas that you love. Take those images to your closet and try to re-create them!

Spring Quaran-Cleaning!

Also, you are going to have to keep those sorted bags of clothes for the time being.

Decluttering is one way to bring calmness to your home while sheltering in place.

by Karen Goddard March 23, 2020

De-cluttering can be very satisfying because it is a small thing that you can control in this time when so much is out of our hands.

Clothing is not the only thing we recycle.

Clothing is not the only thing we recycle.

Whenever we need a new rack, shelf or these dressing room doors, we look at what we already have and try to re-make it into what we need.

Maybe there is Already Enough Clothing on the Planet. ;)
