Style Gather on Sears.com

We are honored...humbled...and SO EXCITED to be featured in a partnership between Sears.com, OpenSky.com.

This is an exclusive OpenSky distribution opportunity. OpenSky has partnered with Sears to launch a national program: OpenSky Fresh Finds, only at Sears

Every week, OpenSky will be creating a curated assortment of products from OpenSky merchant brands. The assortment will be merchandised to the Sears audience via national email campaigns, on the homepage of Sears.com, and ultimately in-store at Sears in OpenSky Fresh finds displays.
This is our first contribution to this collaboration!

We catch up with some Charlotte-area small-business owners making news recently:
Carly Gardner, owner of Leap of Faith Clothing, heads to Washington, D.C., at the end of the month to participate in the Retail Advocates Summit, sponsored by the National Retail Federation.
At the summit, being held July 29-30 and involving more than 150 small-business owners, merchants can network and talk with lawmakers about industry priorities. Gardner is one of three North Carolina participants, and the only one from Charlotte, according to the retail federation.
In addition to Leap of Faith Clothing, a children’s line that features Cape T-Shirts, Gardner has two other lines. She says her women’s clothing line, Style Gather, is now part of a promotion involving the online shopping platform OpenSky and Sears. She also has a “functional fashion” line called Jleer Brand.
