Have you ever met the COOLEST Minneapolite in the Twin Cities?  I have!  Her name is Michelle Havens.  From  personality, style, taste, artistry, and retail buying knowhow, she’s GOT IT!  …Plus: she is personally responsible for the success of high-end boutiques such as Warehouse Districts’ Inside Design (interior decorating firm/store) and Martin Patrick3 (the best gentlemen’s boutique in the country, in my opinion).  Both of these stores, I am sure,  miss her very much and are thriving because of her ‘coolness.’  Don’t just take my word for it.  You are going to have to meet her, yourself.  Luckily for you, she is hosting ‘PERSPECTIVES,’ a showcase of 20+ local artists on Sunday Nov. 14 from 12pm-4pm at Local D’Lish – 208 1st St No. in Minneapolis. Because I know her impeccable taste, I am super excited to meet the people she considers worthy of her show. They MUST be awesome. She asked Small Talk T-shirts to be in it, and we are so honored!  Michelle is so versatile, that she left her buyer position to pursue a business venture in luxury gift wrapping! Her work is so immaculate,  the gift wrapping itself is sometimes  more valuable than the gift, but worth every penny. When you come to the show, you will spot Michelle right away. She’ll probably be surrounded by 3 or 4 people being entertained by some of her quirky antics or stories.  She has this strange ability to make you feel ‘hip’ and comfortable in her presence.

Thank you, Michelle
