SERRAHNA! To be a queen

My husband and I decided spur of the moment to visit the Bay Area for the holiday.  While we were here, we were able to visit a few friends and one of them took us to Serrahna!  You may possibly have heard of her designs before through Jennifer Butler Color.  Andrea has worked with Jennifer Butler for years and knows the seasons.  She was able to give me personalized summer suggestions from her store.

Designer Andrea

The store is amazing and it feels like being  a queen.
Serrahna:  vb, hindi:  to praise, to appreciate, to beautify.

Women's boutique featuring the Indian influenced designs of Andrea Serrahn. 



Here are the items I purchased, and I wish I could
 have bought more and may do so by mail.

This was the first thing I tried on... Perfect. 
It's recycled sweaters that has been adorned.

This is a coat that came in four colors
 and I wanted them all.


This is a coat but it's blouse material


... but hey, don't listen to me, EXPRESS YOUR TRUTH! Jane

I love that you found your type 2-4 at that store. I worked in a store similar to this in Berkeley many years ago and most of the beautiful fabrics from India were perfect for type 3's or type 3-4. If you love the fabrics you may be interested in fabrics from India for the home: just Google Laura-Kiran in Berkeley. Kiran and Laura Singh designs and imports shawls; scarves and home goods that are handmade too. Thank you for sharing: there things are lovely: hoping to find type 4-1.

I remember Jennifer Butler. Cool. She came up with your colors based on viewing the body as a canvas. Will definitely check out your resource. Thanks for commenting back.
Have a prosperous New Year.
Thanks again.
