There is never a dull moment… TRACES comes to Denver!

Wow! This performance is going to be amazing and I’m sure the costumes will be fabulous!!

TRACES, the high energy acrobatic spectacle which blends circus, physical theater, music and dance continues its national tour. Created by the Montreal-based performance group 7 Fingers, TRACES is now playing in Denver at the Stage Theatre at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts through May 14.

Combining extraordinary acrobatic feats, music, film, narration and dance, seven performers deliver gravity-defying displays of skill that are fresh, urban and inventive.  The artists’ wide-ranging talent includes traditional Chinese acrobatics, tumbling through hoops and leaping spectacularly on giant poles.  Poetic and explosive, funny and thoughtful, TRACES creates an experience that surprises and delights all ages. TRACES takes the audience into an exhilarating world where creation flourishes, relationships are real, emotions are raw, and you never know what’s coming next.  These versatile artists don’t just engage in high-risk acrobatics, they bare their souls through music, dance, drawing, and spoken word – as they attempt to leave a lasting mark: traces of who they are.

TRACES has critics from Chicago to Los Angeles and now Denver breathless.  The Chicago Tribune raved, “A gorgeously pure, loose, and personal circus… the … Read more!

In store, Look of the day

Feeling a little punk rock?

Leave a comment

I was feeling a little punk rock inspired today so I created our Look of the Day with an upcycled Social Distortion teeshirt dress made by Kimono Dragons, paired with pearls by Skylark 360! I love it when Francis takes an oversized shirt and makes it into something sexy and wearable!! I also love the elegant pearls designed by Molli Yoder of Skylark 360. Mixing punk with pearls is always fun!

For the punkrock princess in your world, we have a dress made by Giddy Up! I’ve paired it with a super adorable oversized flower headband.
