Happy Thursday, Smarties! We are having a BALL with the Smarty Fall Fashion Week. It’s so fun to give our Smarty gal pals pink & green presents every day of the week and it’s not even Christmas! Tune in through Sunday as we unveil a new giveaway daily.
Today we present Jude Connally!
Jude Connally’s tagline says it all:
“Style that has less to do with what you wear and more to do with who you are.”
Living life to its fullest and embracing moments to connect, create and explore – is the passion and inspiration behind Jude Connally. Getting dressed is so much more than putting on your clothes each day. It is defining and expressing who you are.
With this passion and belief in mind, Jude Connally Zimmerman, a 20-year fashion veteran, created Jude Connally, a modern collection of vibrant prints and soft silhouettes that makes everyday dressing for women easy, expressive and fun.
The use of colors and fun patterns jumped out at me the first time I laid eyes on Jude Connally pieces at Monkee’s of Morrocroft. I found myself pulling out a fabulously flirty dress and discovered Jude Connally. On the next rack I found a top that had an entirely different pattern. But it had the undeniable Jude Connally stamp – brilliant use of color and patterns partnered with a unique texture of fabric, a retro stretchy nylon/spandex blend. This looks and feels like vintage Jackie-O. Then on yet another rack with completely different hues, my eyes were drawn to another Jude Connally piece. I knew it was love at first sight and I bought my first dress.
The best part of Jude Connally clothing – it’s all made in the USA and the luxurious fabric is easy to care for. No dry cleaning necessary, just wash and wear. It’s that simple. The fabric doesn’t wrinkle either, so these pieces are perfect for the traveling Smarty Mama. The sizing is XS-XL (0-16), true to size, and seriously looks good on all body types. They have a perfect style just for you, pinkie swear!
Enjoy our Jude Connally Lookbook!
