Bedrock Skirt

April 21, 2021 Trish YankeLeave a comment

Who doesn't love a good jean skirt? WE sure do so it was about time we added one to our lineup. Our hope is that it can become a good foundation for many Sofiona outfits. (Did you catch what I did there? "foundation"....."bedrock" skirt.......if no one else I at least entertain myself.) Photo: Trish The… Continue reading Bedrock Skirt

The Cranberry Dress

November 19, 2020November 22, 2020 Trish Yanke1 Comment

I love holiday dresses. There's just something exciting about making something fancy and perhaps a little over the top...even if it's not totally practical. For a couple years now I've wanted to design a dress that would work for everyday, but also have the look and feel of something that could be "glammed up". Since… Continue reading The Cranberry Dress

Picking Raspberry

June 17, 2020June 20, 2020 Trish YankeLeave a comment

While I was preparing to put the Sturgeon Swimsuit into testing a couple months ago Sherri shared some cool inspiration pictures with me that she'd found online and really liked.

The Cattail Tank/Dress

February 26, 2020February 26, 2020 Trish YankeLeave a comment

Cattail was first drafted as a tank top to pair with the Tamarack Tights that Sherri had been planning since before Sofiona Designs first launched. As we got close to being ready to post our tester calls Sherri looked at the tank and said "I think this should be a (maxi) dress too". She was… Continue reading The Cattail Tank/Dress

A No-Twist Elastic Waistline

January 21, 2020 mamidesofionaLeave a comment

Who here can NOT stand twisted elastic bands?? I see all the hands up. I'm with you. It's ridiculous and annoying and too often becomes a piece of clothing that doesn't get worn. We want clothing that we can be comfy in and don't need to adjust every so often.

New Beginnings

November 9, 2018 mamidesofiona2 Comments

What a LONG time coming this particular blog post has been!!! I expected to have this out and written probably 6 months ago (or more) and yet, things take time and I needed to practice patience. Always. I always need to practice patience since I'm, admittedly, not great at it. It has been a full… Continue reading New Beginnings
