Friends,
I’ve got a secret. The first thing that I do when I get home is get out of my work clothes! And then, I often reach for a pair of Sense pants for comfort. Don’t know Sense? You will when you visit La Fonda on the Plaza and experience the fashionable, comfortable and oh-so-wearable clothing that Sense purveys. Sense clothing flatters every body. Really.
Owner Robin Beachner launched Sense in 2005, her line of pants, skirts, tops and jackets in ultra soft, unconstructed fabrics in colors that compliment anything in your wardrobe. Seriously, anything. So many women of all ages, shapes and sizes, stay here or travel through La Fonda that Sense’s commitment to a healthy, active lifestyle, and, sensual and ageless yet sophisticated designs, make the boutique the perfect addition to our already stellar line up of shops.

But why, after having a successful presence on Galisteo Street, would Sense want to move into a much smaller storefront at La Fonda? “I’ve been wanting to move to La Fonda for a long time,” says Robin. “I loved the Galisteo space but it was so big that people sometimes got overwhelmed. I didn’t need that much space, and really wanted to be part of the La Fonda family. The vibe there is great because everything is always so active and busy – the restaurant, the bar and the stores. Plus, La Fonda needed more modern clothing choices!”
Robin’s pared down Sense’s line to the best of the best styles, and will offer more spa and other options like robes, lounging pants and shawls, when the store opens at the hotel at the beginning of March. And everyone needs a little shrug or jacket to ward off the chill of Santa Fe’s mornings and evenings. Besides, who doesn’t want to be comfortable when working out, jogging or jaunting around town, but also still look stylish? No one, that’s who. I even know some people who sleep in the yoga pants and t-shirts or tanks!
So if your sensibility is such that you want to wear clothing that looks good, travels and packs well, washes up like a dream, and frankly, you never want to take off, Sense makes sense. Come visit and see for yourself how stylish and comfy Robin’s clothes are.
Stay comfortable (but stylish), friends,
Jenny
