We love our Moms!

Growing up, I probably didn't appreciate everything that my mom did for me and my three sisters. Now that I'm a mom, too...I can't fathom how she kept it all together. I'm certain there were days she'd have preferred to pack her bags and head for a few weeks at a spa - but she was always there for us. 


Aren't moms great that way? "It's the hardest job you'll ever love," is true, though. No one is more dedicated, committed or a bigger influence on most of us than our dear Mommies. If you're like me, you have all kinds of Moms in your life - Mom, Stepmom, Grandmom, Mom-in-law, Second Mom... Mother's Day is the perfect time to tell all those unbelievable women in your life just how important they are to you.


What Mom doesn't deserve to be cute, comfy and loved on Mother's Day? And, of course, we have the perfect way to make sure that happens!  

(how cute were Janelle's and Lindsey's Mom back in the day when they were new Moms? - I would totally love to rock pigtails like that!)
Mother's Day is Sunday, May 8th, so from now until May 7th (we're not open that Sunday, so plan ahead) we will give YOU a free gift when you get a gift for your Mom - or Moms!  


Spend $200, and you get a $50 gift card for a future purchase.  Spend $400, you get a $100 gift card for a future purchase. (Gift cards cannot be used the day of purchase.)  Check out some of our cozy choices here...


Come in and celebrate the Moms in your life...and treat yourself at the same time!


Here's to Moms!

Save the planet. And look really good doing it.



Have you seen our super cool tote bags? They're not only good-lookin' and handy, they've got a secret past. They are each made from one of our store banners or billboards. We didn't want all those big beautiful pictures of our SOL girl, making her way across the state in her adorable SOL lingerie, ending up in a landfill, so we create fabulous bags from them. Westword magazine even gave us a "Best of" award for our efforts!

To celebrate,  every purchase at SOL on Earth Day receives a free bag! It's a $27 value - and you're going to look great carrying it around town to do all your shopping. Plus, you'll know you're doing your part to make the earth a little greener - and a little more beautiful!

Just mention this blog, Facebook or Twitter posts about it, and you'll be rocking the recycled SOL billboard bag.

What? You're not a Facebook or Twitter follower yet? No better time than the present!

PS - The new Cosmic Blue Daisy is here - and it's super cute!

Why do SOL Girls love Marie Jo?

In the words of SOL Girl Helen: When I think of Marie Jo, the same attributes always come to mind: classic, comfortable, and superior quality. Above all, it makes women feel feminine and beautiful.

In Kendall’s words:  “I love Marie Jo because they are wicked comfortable, smooth, and always super cute. Their bras always have really intricate, luxurious, or fun details that they put in discrete places so they won't show under my thinner, lighter tops. They use flattering colors that are in trend with fashions for the season, so they always match with my new wardrobe selections.”

Anna: Marie Jo astounds me every season with the fashionable color selections and the attention to detail on the lace. The Marie Jo lace push-up cup is genius and looks phenomenal on any body type.

Lara : I love wearing and selling Marie Jo’s because the colors are very fun and they are always comfortable to wear!

 Jordy: I love putting Marie Jo on my customers for the simple fact that it is by far the most consistent brand we have. The fit is always flawless, and the look is always elegant and so feminine. Once the size is nailed down, the customer has so many phenomenal options that will all be perfect for her. And let's be real here, all I needed to say was "Daisy," and I could have been done :)

And last but not least...

Why I love Marie Jo by Cindy Johnson
Daisies are yellow,
Dots are mellow
Lace is lovely in all colors!
Enough of my attempt to be poetic.
They ship on time, fit great and Colorado Sol girls love them!
