Have you been yet? To Local Talent in Old Town Scottsdale where owner Shannon McRae has created a 3,000 square foot upscale, chic haven for local designers and artisans to showcase their fashion and art for women, men, child and home?!

Amelia Walsh satin dress
The colorful boutique is a new home for some of my favorite designers including Angela Johnson, Amelia Walsh, Rebecca Turley, Stitch Connect, Femme Athletic and more. In fact, you Fashion Phoenix fans hopefully remember the gorgeous green satin dress recently in the window by Amelia Walsh that I wore in my Holiday photo shoot. Love it!
And during my recent visit with Shannon and tour of the boutique, I fell in love with more local designers including Bitchin’ Beads and Alma Primero, to name a couple. I loved this two-tone satin dress by Alma Primero.

I really want to go to this store! We have something similar in Tucson called Bohemia.
One of my favorite Phoenix/Scottsdale designers is in this store, Angela Johnson.
Have anyone checked out the Saharan Snow label by Alina Iovita? I carry it in my store, Pussycat. Check it out, the has some amazingly vibrant colors.
I love the Saharan Snow label as well. Their gaucho pants are amazing!!!! I bought 3.
I love, love Angela as well. Next time I’m in Tucson, will have to check out Bohemia. Thanks for the tip. xo
I am a local artist, I design shirts, note cards and pictures and I hide a heart in each one.

I am in Sibley’s West in Chandler and 5 other places. You can see some of my things on my website and facebook and email. Hear from you soon!
