2010-02-22T20:03:00.000-08:00

Have you seen the Miche bag yet? If not, stop at Marie Haggin Accessories in Kent Station today. The Miche bag is such a fun handbag and an easy way to change your look to match your mood! Available in two sizes, you buy the base and different shells to dress up your outfit. We started carrying them in January, and we can't keep them in stock because they are SO popular! You can also purchase the chain handle to really make your bag unique! No more changing purses - isn't that brilliant? We think so.

Thanks to all of those who came for last Friday's Spring/Summer Girlfriend Clothing Exchange. This was our second event and it was THE BOMB!

"I can't wait until the next one!"

"It is everything you promised it would be..."

Go Sassy or Sophisticated: New Ways to Wear Scarves […and a treat from Marie Haggin!]

2009-03-22T18:22:00.001-07:00

For some, times are tough right now. For others, we want to cut back a little. So why not use accessories to give your style a boost? It’s an easy, affordable way to give your existing wardrobe a different look.

Say you’re running late, and basic-black is your only option. Why not “pop it” with a fuchsia scarf? You can also try wearing scarves in different ways – perhaps draped across your shoulders, hanging down straight, or if you’re feeling sassy, wrap a scarf around your waist and top it off with a stunning broach. Live a little, ladies, experiment! There is no wrong way to wear a scarf.

If you’re ready to add a new twist to your look this spring, stop by Marie Haggin Accessories at Kent Station. We have a new selection of beautiful scarves in a variety of colors, styles and fabrics.

What are you waiting for? Treat yourself TODAY! Bring in this coupon to receive 20% off the purchase of one item at Marie Haggin Accessories, now through 4/11/09. One coupon per customer please.

Together we donated 100+ scarves...thank you!

2009-02-05T20:21:00.000-08:00

On Monday, January 26, my family and I went to downtown Seattle to donate scarves to two homeless shelters and to people living on the streets. Thanks to your generosity, we had more than 100 scarves to give away!

I'd like to offer a special thanks to:

- Those who donated items for the homeless. Together we helped a few men, women and children stay a little warmer.

- Those who wanted to donate but weren't able to because there wasn't enough time or you didn't have any scarves to donate.

Being able to do this made my birthday this year truly special. Thank you so much.

Yours truly,

Debbie Marie Haggin

Embrace the silence

2009-02-03T06:20:00.000-08:00

When your mind moves so fast and is as busy as mine, silence can be a very strange experience. This year my focus is to try to get know silence once again...maybe even embrace it!

Yours truly,

Debbie Marie Haggin
