BRING ON THE BOWLS!

It’s that time of year. The time of year when even your favorite TV shows take the back seat, when remotes are forfeited and the question “what are we going to watch tonight” isn’t even asked. It’s Bowl Season. There are some amazing bowl games to be had this year ending with what can only be predicted as an epic bowl game between #1 seed Notre Dame and #2 seed Alabama. Whether your favorite team was lucky enough to make it into a bowl game, or you have to choose a new favorite team for the end of the year, this is a time to come together for some good old fashioned football viewing…and when we say come together, we mean play up those old rivalries (or new ones) and cheer as loud as you can when your team wins (or curse that they were robbed!!)

Here at Meesh & Mia, as you can imagine, we have some die hard fans….and if they weren’t when they started, they’re certainly starting to catch on. We asked our gals who they would be rooting for this bowl season and we were pleasantly surprised that there are PLENTY of office rivalries! True, many of these rivalries are for show…our web manager only loves Alabama because our art manager loves Notre Dame…but that’s what this holiday season is all about, right?

 So, in honor of Bowl Season, we had a photo shoot with the ladies of Meesh & Mia sporting the looks of their favorite teams. We are a small team, so not all bowl games are represented here, but please know that we truly heart ALL bowl games and, with the exception of just a few teams, we have plenty of fashions to make you stand out in any bowl game crowd! We mean it when we say this year is going to be a Bowl Full of Fashion.

Introducing MADE IN THE USA - A Note from our CEO

At Meesh & Mia we are committed not only to supporting education, but to creating jobs for the graduates of our many University partners. This, among many other reasons, is why we felt a compelling responsibility to manufacture our products within the United States. This year, we are thrilled to announce that over 65% of Meesh & Mia’s products are now designed and manufactured here in the United States!

We couldn’t be more excited to introduce our incoming 2012 styles, available later this month, with the easily identifiable and always welcomed “Made in th U.S.A” tag. You’ll now see it appearing throughout the site on your favorite new styles!

We’re looking forward to an exciting and successful year and we can’t wait for you to join us in the movement.

Sincerely,

Elizabeth Turley
