SMC Update

Update: We've moved shop so its taking a bit of time to sort everything out, once we're settled we'll have new items up! In the meantime, do continue to contact me by email for individual requests!

Ok, so I know I have been terrible about posting new things lately. I have been very pre-occupied with some other projects that have prevented me from attending to SMC and LBCM to some extent. My apologies. I promise to have new things up this week for your browsing enjoyment!!!

Thanks!!

Donale for Lolita Jaca flow-y Summer Top

This top is Caribbean vacation/Hot summer days at it's best from 'Donale pour Lolita Jaca'. Lolita Jaca is a wonderful bohemian shop on St. Barth's which carries amazing chic boho clothing.

It has been said of Lolita Jaca:
"In St.Barths amongst the big-name shops, visitors can find amazingly unique boutiques. Vis.A.Vis found a liking to one store in particular Lolita Jaca.

Once you step foot through the store's shutter-style doors, you're whisked into a bohemian dream. Bright tunics, flowy skirts, colorful jewelry and airy blouses are Lolita Jaca's specialty. The store's merchandise is far more hippie than high nose with clothing by Antik Batik, Paul & Joe, Virginie Monroe and French designing newcomer, Donalé. Designer Antik Batik, in particular, has a wonderful line of ethnic-inspired clothes popular with models and other hip Parisians. Embroidered velvet dress coats, Chinese silk tunics, short fur jackets, fringed printed shawls and some of Paris's most popular handbags are by this hippie-chic label. Lolita Jaca's cultural collection of beautiful djellabas (long, flowing garments), embroidered tops and unique jewelry pieces in extraordinary tints breathe the St. Barths spirit of colorful individuality.

So if you can swing by the posh plot that is St. Barths, be sure to please your shopping senses at Lolita Jaca. Located at Les Hauts du Carré D'or in Gustavia, this boutique's low-key vibe and flower-child fashions are sure to bring the peacenik out of you".

Victor De Souza Black Satin Corset--Collectible

This is a real score!!! A Victor De Souza black satin corset..that went down the runway in 2003. Gorgeous.

De Souza is a brilliant designer who is very under the radar/struggling to break into couture (which is killer). This is a chance to have one of his beautiful pieces which are very hard to find....

As featured on Daily Candy.

Hello, Carrie wore Victor De Souza on SATC!!! So did Charlotte. (BTW, how cool is it that you can dissect SATC's wardrobe!!!)

Spring 2006 show in NYC
Fall 2006 RTW in NYC.

So, I'm back after that very long hiatus and I have my work cut out for me, I have sooooo much to show you and I will try to get lots up this week.

Thanks for your patience and support!!

Ursule Beaugeste Fringe Tan Leather Bag

Ursule Beaugeste sells beautiful bags from their Paris boutique at 15 Rue Oberkampfin.

This gorgeous fringe bag comes just in time when we are loving the fringes happening in fashion now (see Prada or Ashley Olsen). If you have that boho-y chic thing happening , this is the bag for you! With beautiful engraving set into the leather you can't go wrong....a little fringe thrown in and its delight-full.

Singer Natalie Imbruglia loves Ursule bags (and, hey, we love her voice)!

Just in....summer vacation to St. Barths, all the outfits you need and heaps of new bags...Prada, Fendi, Bottega Veneta

(Uma Thurman earlier this year in St Barth's)


Wow....I haven't even gotten all the masses of items up that are part photographed, part catalogued from the past few weeks and I've got new stuff already!!! I just picked up a whack of gorgeous St. Barth's worthy outfits, wispy silks, thin cashmere, etc. As well as a number of great bags. I'll try to post all the summer worthy items before I leave for Montreal.

Its been said of St.Barth's...
"Fashion wise, France is known for its greats: Hermès, Louis Vuitton, Givenchy and Chanel, to name a few - but on the tres chic island of Saint Barthèlemy , a softer side of the City of Lights shines thanks to St. Barths' isle roots. Located in the French West Indies, St. Barths is the place to see and be seen. Celebrities and the jetset "holiday" here for lazy days in the sun, world-class eats and night-crawling fun. And let's face it; a vacation just isn't complete without a serious shopping spree. In the capital city of Gustavia, it's possible to experience Champs-Elysée deja vu because Chopard, Versace, Cartier and Roberto Cavalli line the bustling streets. But amongst the big-name shops, visitors can find amazingly unique boutiques. "

Steal My Stuff!!

Like what you see on my blog 'La Blonde C'est Moi'? Then you will love what I have to offer on 'Steal my Clothes'.

As I have alluded to in 'LBCM', I am a vintage whore. I adore all things old and glamorous. For most of my life (since I was 11) this has been both a hobby and a part-time gig. I have been gearing up as of late to start plans for either an online boutique or actual shop. This may be some time in the works as space in NYC is quite pricey. For now, I offer you 'Steal My Clothes'. I will be showcasing only things I love and endorse. Some vintage, some more contemporary. All cool and of high quality. Items will run the gamut from clothes (dresses, jeans, tops, sweaters etc), Jewelry, Shoes, Bags (but of course!), and some Vintage Housewares (Linens, Silver and Silver Plate, China, Glassware and Paintings/Prints).

All the ingredients for a glamorous life.

Enjoy and feel free to contact me at lablondecestmoi@gmail.com
