Hello! I was so sad that I couldn't buy the lovely dresses from you online but am delighted you'll be back in the New Year! Great!! Will you be able to offer shipping to the UK? I no longer fly to Canada each year (boo hoo) so have no other way to get hold of those lovely clothes which always make people say "ooo where did you get that?". It would be great if they could buy them online too...
Dear April, I'm not sure that this is the best way to reach you, or that I should write you via your blog, but, here goes! I am a 21 year old boutique owner that carries April Cornell. Ever since I was a young girl my mother and I had shopped at your Kansas City Boutique. Then after going to several years of highschool in France and traveling extensively in Europe , discovering polish pottery meanwhile, I came home and with the help of my family and husband (then fiance) opened my own boutique named Florence Adams - after my grandmother. I was so thrilled to find out that we could carry your line in our store - this was a little over a year ago. We actually bought samples from one of the showrooms and sold those especially since we were just starting out and could use the small quantities. We decided to place a large order, did so, weren't able to get it sadly enough, and I thought it would never be available again. Imagine how thrilled we were to get the catalog for your linens! and to discover even more at Silvestri. Thank you so much for continuing with the most beautiful, feminine line of clothing, linens etc. Our store has actually reminded people of yours and that is something I am very proud of. I've always wanted to talk to you somehow - I would just love to. We are trying to get started with our business, have made many mistakes hopefully will have great success in the future just as you have. If you would like to get an idea of what we are doing our website is florenceadams.com. There is still much to be done and much more to put up. I cannot wait to get your Spring Linens...we merely wanted it up before Christmas. You must use Internet Explorer to open it...one more thing to fix. Beyond April Cornell, we carry Polish Pottery, Womens and childrens hats, various bits of clothing ( I do so hope I can buy that from you too again soon...)none of which compares to yours, accessories, candles, handmade soap... April, I honestly would love to be able to talk to you sometime even if only through email. This may sound silly, but even as a young girl before even thinking of opening a store, and going to yours I would wonder if I would ever get to see you. I think todays celebrities are not those who grace the screen but those who make a difference in the world, from helping even one child to adding a bit of warmth to many womens lives and thus those of their families. This last bit is true even for my husband and I. Besides a closet full of AC clothing, I have about five or six of your lovely nightgowns. My husband always comments when I wear one and has said how much he prefers them to anything else. So thank you - and thank you from everyone else who's lives you have brightened! Love, Anna PS If you ever would like to even just say hello =) my email is anna@florenceadams.com
My day has been made! I am SOOOOO glad to see you are opening stores again. I look forward to hearing of one in my area (Norfolk, VA) AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!!! My girls and I are desperate for dresses!!
Hello again! I just wanted to add that I agree with the previous post...we need dresses! They are just not available except from you. Do let us know =)
