Hey, I don’t mean this in a weird way, but is Maya okay..?

maya is stoned on the couch eating a bowl of chicken alfredo and watching a youtube video about. uh. paper mario i think. she's REALLY jazzed for ttyd

i realize taking maya off social media can be concerning but we took her off because managing your own personal brand that's also an extension of you that's also your job that's also your company that you can't take a day off from for over ten years sucks

maya stepping away is a good thing, she's doing better than she's been in a long time and i no longer need to force her on a vacation somewhere without service against her will

how are the picnic shirt pre-orders doing? have you reached the minimum order number?

they're doing better than the button-up clothes that's for sure

the picnic top will be made regardless. it's a lower price to make with a much much MUCH lower risk due to it being like a medium price point. we didn't really NEED to do preorders on it but decided to since it's different enough from our other stuff that we're not totally confident

hiiii it's me! devin! ur favorite!

maya is still banned from doing big business things on social media while she takes time to rest and detoxify from the poison that is running social media full time for ten years. everybody clap! yay!

i'm here to share some info on our button-up shirt and dress preorders!

as many of you already know, i lost my anti-preorder campaign due to the high minimum per design. there's been some confusion and uncertainty. carsyn's doing her best but preorders are overwhelming and i have some time today

SO TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS:

preorders are live now!! ✨

this launch includes our new organic cotton button-ups in our funeral design, our button-up dress in our funeral design, and the picnic crop top in both white and black colors.

preorders will be open until may 12th!

you can get these on my store!

hey yall some bad news: we’ve only made about 9% of the sales needed to hit the minimum order for the organic cotton button shirt and dress

ideally we’d like to hit 75% and if we don’t hit at least 50% we will probably have to cancel the whole thing 🥲

Are the black picnic tops still available for pre-order? When I looked originally, there was one page for the tips, where you could select black or white. Then it changed to a page for the black and a page for the white, so I added one of each to my cart. When I went to pay, the black one got removed from my cart, and now it doesn't show as an option anymore. It's been a few hours now and still no black option. Any insight? Thanks!

right now it’s only available in the US market due to some fuckery with the service we use for international. hopefully the product should get approved (and therefor should show up in the store for non-US folks) in 48ish hours or so

how much slack would you recommend for the picnic top for the length metric? I feel like i'm doing it wrong since i'm getting a pretty different size from the wrap shirt (S instead of L/XL)

it's difficult to compare the measurements of the two since the picnic crop top is measuring the underbust, whereas the wrap top is measuring the waist.

since it's elastic, it's also sized a bit differently and large size differences like this can occur. so the small probably is accurate for your measurements.

hi y'all! we've taken a closer look at the picnic crop top measurements and it looks like there was a mistake made due to a miscommunication with the factory, so we're reworking them now.

we'll be contacting anyone that has already ordered one to let them know!

thank you guys for being so patient! 🧡

all fixed!

It's Anony Mouse here reporting on behalf of the "boobs way too big" squadron - do the waist ties on the dresses have a limit to how much they can cinch in for us disproportionate queens? Or at least without looking silly. I'm obsessed with your funeral print but I gotta make sure I'll look good 😭

they don't have a limit, it's just however tight that you choose to tie it! we also lengthened the waist tie another 6" (compared to the sample pics of maya), so you should be able to adjust it as you see fit. since it's a tie and not shapewear, the amount of cinch provided is whatever the difference you have between your bust and waist.

maya also has a 10 inch difference between her bust and waist size, so it fits and cinches well even with a larger bust size.

when drop-time hits, i become bongo cat until however long it takes the page to migrate out of placeholder status (im gonna GET me one's those black picnic tops 👀)

omg don't even worry!! you have all the way until may 12th to snag that black picnic crop top hehe

So I have a question about the picnic top size chart and the accompanying picture. In the picture the waist circumference is drawn in, but the size chart itself doesn't have a column for the waist (but the underbust instead). Do they mean the same thing in this case... kinda sorta at least? Or does Underbust actually mean the part where the bra-cup wires would go (higher up than the actual waist)? Thanks in advance and sorry for the dumb question ❤️😅

oops, that's our fault! the picture was meant to say underbust instead of waist, and we've now fixed that. so hopefully those measurements make more sense now!
