Michele Escude's dream is coming true this month in Fondren. circa., the new retail venue that she and her husband, Craig, created, opened for its soft launch in early November and will enjoy its grand opening during Fondren Unwrapped on Nov. 18. Starting with its lime-green awning, it really is a different kind of home and fashion boutique for Jackson. The couple says it showcases "American ingenuity, returning to a simpler way of life, but with a refined flair and a splash of urban coolness."

Indeed, the shop features unique home and garden wares, crafted by artisans and curated and impeccably arranged by the creative Escudes. You can also purchase unique fashions and accessories and captivating scents and body products.

Get a preview of the Escudes' unique eye at the BOOM Fashion Show at Duling Hall on Friday, Nov. 12, where they will provide the table décor and other touches. Join Fondren's newest entrepreneurs for their ribbon-cutting at 4 p.m. on Nov. 17 and, of course, join the world in Fondren the night of Thursday, Nov. 18, for the city's best holiday-shopping night.

The Escudes are extraordinary folks and will do well with circa. Everyone make sure you stop by and wish them well (and spend some money with them!)
