Six Picks: Phoebe Cates Kline of Blue Tree
Phoebe Cates Kline dreamed up Blue Tree as “a general store, but according to me.” The former actress, best known for her roles in Fast Times at Ridgemont High (who can forget the red bikini) and the Gremlins movies, has owned and operated Blue Tree in Carnegie Hill for over 15 years, where she is most proud of the fact that three members of her staff have been with her since the very beginning. There are no rules as to what Blue Tree carries. As Phoebe puts it — “We are always re-inventing and recreating in the hopes of delighting”. If only the warmth and joy that her customers feel upon entering Blue Tree could be bottled and sold!? Instead, that comes for free. Check out Phoebe’s Six Picks from Shoppe On!
