Welcome to the neighborhood, Dante's Frozen Yogurt!


 Dante’s Frozen Yogurt Bar opened last Friday in downtown Troy and Some Girls are excited to have a new neighbor! Dante’s is a self-serve frozen yogurt bar, with several different flavors of frozen yogurt and an amazing topping bar with fresh fruit, candy pieces and other crazy toppings. Sam and Margaret hopped over for a snack and were glad that a business with great customer service and great frozen yogurt will be an addition to the awesome downtown community. So come hop and shop with Some Girls and head over to Dante’s for some excellent frozen yogurt located at 274 River Street Troy, NY.









Some Girls attend this year's Siro's Cup


Last night was the 19th annual Siro’s Cup, a cocktail fundraiser to help benefit The Center for Disability Services in Albany. Held every year at Siro’s trackside restaurant on the eve of opening day to jump start the Saratoga Race Track season, this year had a record high with over 1,200 attendees and over $200,000 raised and Some Girls were happy to be a part of it. Trainer Linda Rice was the fundraiser’s honoree, becoming the first woman to win a Saratoga training title. There was great food, great friends and great dresses, which only made us more excited for our NEW dress shipment coming in this Wednesday and Thursday. So get ready for track season and hop into Some Girls for your perfect Saratoga dress!

DIY Basket Weave Crop Top

As the summer days are getting longer..hem lines are getting shorter!  Here's another easy way to add a little flare to an old shirt!

We started out by taking an over sized shirt ( Any size shirt or tank top will do as long as its a soft cotton and a little longer)






Then we cut about half inch slits up to the graphic of the shirt to make a fringe crop.  You can make shorter or longer pieces depending how comfortable you are with showing off your stomach, however we suggest cutting a little shorter to get the best result.



We took the top of two of the pieces and knotted them together.

We continued to do this by taking a piece from each fringe and knotting it to the one next to it for three more rows, front and back.



 Once completed you will have a basket weave fringe crop top perfect to pair with a pair of cut off denim shorts or a high waisted skirt from Some Girls boutique!
