Description

Specialties

We source women’s clothing, accessories, and textiles with an emphasis on independent designers and socially conscious companies that showcase artistry, creativity, and craft. The Dandelion Post style is casually chic and free-​spirited, with a rough edge or two. To this end, Jaime and Allegra carefully select every article in the shop with an eye towards quality, sophistication, and a little sense of humor.

Meet the Business Owner

Jaime L.

Business Owner

Jaime is a maker at heart. She learned to sew at age seven, sparking a life-​long interest in craft, design, and textiles. She will choose the humble chocolate chip cookie over any dessert, unless there is a peanut butter cookie in the mix. Her oldest article of clothing is a fitted v-​neck sweater that was once black and is now bluish. It’s still in her closet because it is a timeless piece that her mom wore in high school.

Assistant Buyer Allegra is a Libra and a cat lover. Her oldest article of clothing is a mint green, sleeveless, cotton nightgown with black polka dots. Bought circa 1990 at K-​Mart, the hem ruffles used to reach her shins and now they land mid-​thigh. She’s kept it around because it’s never not been the perfect thing to wear to bed on a hot summer night.
