With so many talented ladies and creative costumes in one location, we can't help noting and admiring so many different signature styles! Mostly though, we are more than a little jealous of the Honolulu sand and sunshine, where here in Minnesota the low for today was -23 (not including windchill). The NFL posted a few pictures on Facebook from this past week's festivities, which further conceded our wanderlust and vitamin D deficiency.

They wanted to keep their similar signature pieces, but update the logos and rhinestones. We were excited to help create their new look for the upcoming season! We love that they kept with their classic look as it is so recognizable and a fan favorite. Some changes included adding splashes of aqua to the scalloped edges of the neckline to really make the garments pop during their performances! We couldn’t wait to get these new designs into production and make their vision a reality. We look forward to seeing these beautiful women rocking it out on the field in their new uniforms!
