Their website says:

“Jolie Kai is an online boutique carrying fashion forward clothing and accessories crafted with sustainable principles. Care is taken to source products from designers and brands that are committed to meeting the highest standards for sustainable fashion and ethical manufacturing.

I grew up in my mother’s clothing store and often imagined having a store of my own.

My mom was born and raised in Scandinavia and her European background influenced her fashion sensibility and her interest in quality fabrics, workmanship and unique designs. When I decided to open Jolie Kai, I knew that I wanted to continue to reflect this sensibility and carry it forward to also reflect my personal values on sustainability.

I believe that if we want people to make better choices, if we want to lighten the impact that the fashion industry has on the environment and our health, we need to provide better alternatives.

I started Jolie Kai with this belief that sustainable clothing can and should reflect our modern lifestyles, current trends, and make us look and feel great, while at the same time lightening the load that the fashion industry has on the environment and our health. I wanted to make it easy for people to find brands that they could feel good about that also fit their lifestyle.”

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!

The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!

What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
