Well, here’s how… http://theboutique411.com/want-to-be-closet-rich-heres-how/ http://theboutique411.com/want-to-be-closet-rich-heres-how/#comments Thu, 17 Apr 2014 22:36:56 +0000 http://theboutique411.com/?p=8749 As many of you are getting ready to head out to Palm Desert for Coachella Weekend #2, I figured you would need a little shopping fix while traveling. So whether you’re about to endure a long car ride or you’re sitting on a plane, use your time wisely and check out my latest online obsession, Closet Rich.

closet-rich-home

Closet Rich is “curated fashion consignment,” meaning, this is your online destination for some seriously amazing pre-loved pieces. Elizabeth Kott, founder of the web shop, hand picks each piece from the fashionable closets of private clients — many of whom you know, but shall remain nameless.  Full of current designers and plenty of vintage, Closet Rich offers an array of clothing, accessories, handbags, shoes, sunglasses and so much more. I spoke to Elizabeth and asked her to share her top picks for you to shop on the site right now.

1. Coach / 2. Vintage Valentino / 3. Equipment / 4. Max Mara / 5. Alexander Wang / 6. Chloe / 7. Vintage Dress

Just to note, Closet Rich offers returns within 3 days (amazing!), has flat rate shipping of $10, and you can even pay/pick up in person at their LA showroom — just in case you need it for this weekend. And post shopping, be sure to check out the hysterically funny and fashionable videos Elizabeth has added to the site.

Happy online shopping friends!

We heard the rumors, then saw the red awning go up, and now, voila, the guys have their own Christian Louboutin store to shop in…

 

louboutin mens has landed

 

Located on Robertson in West Hollywood, this is Christian Louboutin’s second Men’s store (his first being in Soho). Now whether you like a classic leather high top, a studded slip on, or if you’re feeling daring, a wingtip in neon colors, this boutique gives the guys plenty of options to choose from! Inside you will find the store separated into four shopping areas, showcasing different Louboutin collections including the “tattoo parlor” where clients can get their shoes embroidered with their own design or one offered by the store. And don’t forget the accessories – travel bags and totes in animal prints, bright colors, and signature studs to boot…

My favorite part…the women’s store starring me down across the street. This is not only Louboutin’s second men’s store, but his second store on Robertson! Of course, I had to go take a peak…

Since my childhood, I can remember my parents hosting dinner parties full of friends, laughter, the smell of amazing home cooking, and always a beautiful table top that my mom put together. She would let me help set the table with beautiful linens, my great grandmother’s monogrammed flatware, and my favorite part – picking out the which gorgeous china we would use. Fast forward to now, my mom is helping me pick out my wedding china and one brand that stands out for its pure beauty is Juliska…

 

juliska berry and thread

 

My favorite pieces are the stoneware ceramics (love Berry and Thread), but their linens, flatware, hand pressed glass, and home collections are not to be missed! And this event is the perfect time to stock up – this weekend, the Juliska flagship store (in Stamford, CT) is hosting their annual warehouse sale where you will find pieces 50% – 75% off!!

 

a dish lover’s dream

 

Whether you are looking for new china, want to add to a collection you already have, or even to purchase the perfect hostess gifts, this warehouse sale is not to be missed…as I’m sure you won’t come back empty handed!

His style is unique, avant garde, and mix of business meets imagination. His quality is amazing and detailing is unlike any other. Last night, I had the privilege of attending his Spring 2013 show and to sweeten the deal, he has a boutique in Tribeca that we are heading to this week. Stay tuned for more…
