The Portmanteau

It was a beautiful day for a Portmanteau...
What's a portmanteau? It's a case or bag to carry clothing in while traveling,
esp. a leather trunk or suitcase that opens into two halves.
And so our private event was called the Portmanteau...
clothing to wear while traveling through this life....

Can you see me in my Throw'n Go?




a few Holiday goodies help to make the spirit bright...

CW looks festive in the AC Studio 9 Hole'n One

Connie shoots a few pix in her AC Studio 9 Tulle Belt

Ladies sporting AC Studio 9 Throw'n Go's and Two Pocket Shawls from the Manhattan and
Highland Collections


The AC Studio 9 Traveler Throw'n Go - sold out till 2010, but we have the Pierrot which is in Linen, and the Throw'n Go in Cotton and French Terry.
A great time was had by all...

The Portmanteau was a private event but this weekend on November 21st we are having a Holiday Reception at Vintage At Heart - a unique little gem of a store nestled in Tujunga Village in Studio City.


AC Studio 9 art.wear, small art works from my Altered Paradox Collection, plus I'll be signing copies of my books "In This Garden" and "Mixed Emulsions" this Saturday
from 4:00pm - 8:00pm.
If you can't make this weekend there's a Holiday Extravaganza on December 5th in Tujunga Village where all the Merchants open their doors...and good food abounds at the various cafe's throughout the village. Santa is there too I think...
Till the end of the year...all my goodies will be at Vintage At Heart...but my art.wear can also be bought online at AC Studio 9. And if I say so myself they make great gifts...because they fit every size and make you feel good. The Pocket shawls have 2 pockets - (how I love pockets to hold my cell phone and keys and wallet or whatever), and the Throw'n Go's are just plain comfy. Anyway...that's the latest...and as soon as things slow down a bit - I'll be posting those archival photos I've been finding...thanks for taking the time to write all the title ideas...

Oh Angela, what a lovely collection. Not only are the clothes beautiful but the way you show the items is to die for. That mannequin? I want one like that in my bedroom!!

Oh how I would love to go to the village on December 5th. Maybe I can.

Angela,

For the first time in many many years I watched a couple of episodes of Lost In Space on Hulu.com.

I remember thinking we were about the same age when you did that show and recalled your role in the Sound of Music.

Curious as to your life path I Googled and discovered your website and have caught up.

I am certain you are very busy, but I thought I would say "Hi."

PS I am the President/CEO of a cutting edge Internet technology company that specializes in delivering information and communication directly to user's desktops and bypassing Internet congestion. I'll bet you could use it. I think the space shows had something to do with the inspiration.
