Muses come and go. My current muse is not only the source of recent LC inspiration, she’s also one of my very best friends. Since birth, we’ve shared life’s laughs, tears, special occasions, valleys and accomplishments. And right now I could not be more proud of Catherine Fitzsimmons’ accomplishments -- she’s musetastic. Affectionately “Chatty”, this business lassie launched her own company two years ago and has seen it take off since. Rikshaw Design has gone from a small collection of authentic Indian hand-blocked printed cribbing to multiple collections and accompanying accessories; such as the signature Elephant pillow and too cute to spill on bibs. And most recently, Rikshaw has launched Boho Bliss – a collection of toddler essentials. My personal favorites are the sunhats and bloomers. A++dorable. And all of these treasures once only available online are now showing up in window displays of high end LA and NYC baby boutiques, available to the likes of Harlow Madden! Whether you have tots or not, you can’t help but fall head over heels in love with Rikshaw and its charming bohemian chic vibe. Not to mention Chatty’s wonderfully carefree spirit, sunny, funny disposition and contagious bigger than life smile. I'm so lucky to know and adore her! Speaking of adore, check out Chatty’s must have tunic blouse above. Channel her unique style and make it your own with this Tucker look-a-like available on Piperlime. For a year round look, jeans are perfect. For warmer days, belt it with a Spring mini or blouse it with some oh-so-cropped summer shorts.

are you kidding me..? i love you..will blog about this today..glad your back!
I love rikshaw design and just looked at her blog which linked me to you. The wierdest thing ever is that I was in a boutique today in Providence (booked in in between kid pick ups, etc) and saw this Tucker tunic (exact same color) and have been thinking of it ever since and was about to google it and then saw this.
Maybe this means I need to buy it - ha!
Can't wait to check out the rest of your blog!

I want an adult baby sac from rikshaw! ( and a crib for me)

Katy, like sunglasses, another major weakness of mine is superstition. So I love your story on so many levels. Thank you for sharing it. If you haven't already ordered the Tunic, it's time. On the rare occasion I refrain from impulse purchasing, if I find myself daydreaming about a find for the rest of the day, I usually give it another 24 hours and then know it's meant to be had. So have it girl! Happy weekend.
Pve, check out http://rikshawdesign.blogspot.com/. It's not a baby sac, but it is an adult kurta. Something tells me big girl cribs might not be so far off ...
