Sistas in the Canyon & Darlings of the Dust Bowl

April 30, 2010 1 min read 4 Comments

Patricia Fowler won last weeks tee giveaway when she sent a "thank you" note to her mom showing her love and appreciation for her induction to the West.

. Patricia's mom and aunts worked at the Bright Angel Lodge in Grand Canyon, Arizona during the late 1930s as chamber maids and would trek down into the canyon in their dungarees. Â Here are a couple of pictures of Patricia's mom and herÂ aunts. .

Interestingly, my research is showing a lot as far as faded denim work-clothes goes.Â Â "Dust Bowl Darlings" is an emerging trend for spring '11. .

makes me want to visit the Grand Canyon this summer ...right after I finish my depression-esque denim group!

My namesake is the beautiful woman that Patricia wrote about. I carry a bit of her with me every day in my heart and around my wrist, where four of her silver bangles jingle. Thank you for posting the photos! I love your company’s concept and style!
Anne’s granddaughter, Anne!
