The Tip is 'Ask manufacturers' Some times I have run across an advertisement that implied a product was Made in USA but the product did not have the Made in USA label. Before I buy or put the product on my Made in USA list, I email the manufacturer and ask if their product is Made in USA. If they say yes I ask why their product is not labeled that way. Seldom will they tell me why but many times they will tell me every component that is Made in the USA and those that are not. I then make my decision about buying their product and put it on my list if they convince me. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Nicole Paloma Expressing yourself and feeling beautiful is the true drive behind style, and knowing that and incorporating it into his or her art is the mark of a true fashion designer. Nicole Paloma Rockhill has been using her artistic talents to create things from the time she was old enough to use a pair of scissors, but she never thought she would spend her life creating clothes until she bought her first sewing machine in 2007. Her journey began in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, as she started making things for her daughters, Laurel and Laine, and her girls' line eventually evolved into a women's collection. Since then, Nicole has been working tirelessly to create unique, comfortable, and stylish handmade pieces that reflect her fearless and unique personality while complementing the coastal environment in which they are created. Soft whites, sandy colors, and heather greys that emanate the beauty of nature have become the staple palette of her collections, creating a dreamscape in floaty, soft fabrics such as cotton, silk, and . Nicole's first retail store, located in the creative community of Grayton Beach, brings together coastal charm and ethereal beauty with driftwood hanging from the ceiling and the jewelry of Adorn by Samouce complementing the clothing in an eclectically chic mix of flirty and rock ?n' roll. Preferring to keep her creations special by making them by hand and adhering to a made-in-the-USA standard, Nicole's creations range from casual resort wear to one-of-a-kind couture pieces. The first Nicole Paloma couture collection debuted in 2013 at South Walton Fashion Week, and quickly became a crowd favorite of the entire weekend. Rather than following what's trendy, her designs stem from her own personal style and from listening to the customers in her Grayton Beach store. By surrounding herself with positive and creative influences, Nicole strives to hone her skills as a designer while writing a story with each piece she creates. Her clothing should speak to others in the sense that they imagine where they might wear the silk charmeuse Lion Skirt or breezy Turks pants. The community has embraced her dreamlike designs wholeheartedly, and Nicole Paloma is planning to branch into new markets and open new retail locations in the future. Armed with her dreams, creativity, and a mind for business, Nicole continues to make sustainable, flattering styles that women feel beautiful in, and will go on pushing the boundaries of handmade designs for everyone.
