Simple…romantic and timeless. Kara-line dresses drape your body, leaving something to the imagination.

Kara Larson began sewing in her sister’s garage, selling her dresses from a clothing line in her back yard or out of a suitcase while on the road. Nothing is traditional for this gal. With a flair for making dresses, Kara created an entire line for women, and the Wild Carrots line for little gals (and guys).

Loving her hometown of Portland, Oregon, Kara decided to put down some roots. In the spring of 2000 she opened her boutique called Tumbleweed.

Hands full, indeed she has also added a husband, John and a son, William. Oh yes, and a fixer of a bungalow.

Inspired by her young son, in the fall of 2004 she opened her latest venture, a whimsical children’s shop with toys clothes and books called Grasshopper.

Though life and business is thriving, she still creates a laid back atmosphere that makes you feel like your stepping into a dressing room when you walk into Tumbleweed. Her dresses hang on the racks accompanied by other designer’s offerings.

“You can get just about anything a gal would love.” Kara explains, “We offer beautiful clothes for everyday life. I feel you should be able to wear a dress strolling down the aisle of grocery store then off to a wedding.”

So if you would like to get in touch with Kara regarding any info on ordering kara-line dresses or just to say howdy, you can email her at kara@tumbleweedboutique.com.
