*Must Shop* Online Store ShopSheBoutique.com


Its so super hard to find a shopping website which always has stuff that you like whether it is clothing or accessories. I have been searching and subscribing to top websites but after a while I get bored receiving e-mails with new items which do not interest or excite me much. That comes from trying to have items which are not widely distributed or easily accessible for everybody to buy.

Even if I like something, I always think about what if I see somebody else wearing it on the street or in the crowd, it certainly would be uncomfortable therefore I try to buy pieces which are hard to find at the stores, which have unique style and possibly one of a kind. Where can you find such items?

Here is one of the websites which suits this category. Merchandise that is sold on ShopSheBoutique.com is fun, young, trendy, high quality & certainly has brands which are not sold in many boutiques and department stores. It currently has lots of stuff on sale which I have been browsing through trying to find new items for Spring Season. I have picked a couple of sale items which drew my attention and are my *Must Shop* on ShopSheBoutique.com.

Handmade Jewelry Boston

KatyaUK handmade beaded jewelry comes into the world as an expression of inner mind of two jewelry designers who are located in the Boston area. Its represents the personality, uniqueness & creativity incorporated into each piece. We have decided to name each jewelry item with the Flower Name which describes its fashion as a description of a flower. Working with different materials helps to make each piece individually different from the other and carries its unique name, design & style. Each item is one of a kind, there is no other one made with exact same materials, quality and design. Products are never identical, they are one of a kind.

None of the items are mass produced and all of them are handcrafted. Each bead, stone, crystal is individually linked, decorated and put together into jewelry piece. We use leather strand or metallic wire to connect the stones, beads and other precious materials. It provides strength and durability to all products which guarantees extended wear during normal usage.

Handmade Jewelry Boston

We do not limit our opportunities just into designing handmade jewelry pieces only. We are looking into expending our clothing and accessories products which will carry the same frame of work, handcrafted, unique and creative image. If you desire anything to be custom made, it is possible by sending request to info@katyauk.com with description of the item(s).

Alexander McQueen Titanic Ballerina Pumps

Shoes should represent your personal style and certainly your current mood. If you are in the mood for flip flops, it means you are in the lazy lay around mood, stilettos - ready for party, sneakers - must be running errands. Recently most of the high heels have been transformed into over the top platforms which are at least a couple of inches thick.


One of the famous platforms on my radar are Alexander McQueen Titanic Ballerina Pumps. I consider only "risky business" character throw these on. Bronze metal heels, ballerina satin front and over the top platform have made this pair to be top wanted in the new season. What a combination of different styles, will you ever think of wearing metal with the gentle light pink in the mix of elegant slipper?

For the ones who cannot afford pricey tag of $1985.00, you can refer to Lovely People website which sells similar pumps but for cheaper price.

Karl’s Sporting Goods Collection

Chanel brand name has gotten years of recognition for its quality, originality & popularity around the world. I just cannot get enough of Karl Lagerfeld and his couture creations which are now extended into designs of sporting goods. Who would want to own a Chanel logo football for $195.00? Will you use it for your kid’s Sunday practice? Most people will probably not even think of spending this kind of money on a football. But somebody who is a fashion extremist & loves the world of brand names displayed on everything they own - would be the person necessitating this piece.


If you like to splurge and be covered with CC logos and at the same time, being able to enjoy snow boarding or kayaking, it is now possible with Karl’s help. Chanel fans, both male & female, could only dream of having a snow board or small boat as part of their “toy” collection. Both are now available for sale. Admirers of Chanel have been hunting stores and internet for these “hard-to-get” items. I am surprised that Karl Lagerfeld has been expanding his brand name with more unisex items. It played a huge role on magnetizing men’s crowd to his designs and opening its doors for new clientele.

If you think this is something you would want to purchase from these items, hurry since these items will be available only at the Chanel boutiques.

Club Monaco ‘Jen’ Beaded Clutch

Club Monaco's "Jen" Clutch in blue (Image from nymag.com)Could not miss this item, I know I have been leaning more and more towards accessories lately but this is the way to go when you are not shopping much for clothing. Wear same black dress, change the bags and you will look different each time.


Club Monaco has been surprising me lately with their diversified collections and definitely can land on my MUST HAVE list for the season. Its clutches are fun, glittery, look like new fresh accessory and would be easy to wear with any outfit. They range from $80 and $200. It folds as an envelope and easy to fit in one hand. Even Oprah has mentioned this piece in her "Shopping Guide for the Basic Black Fashion Show". Since online store does not give you much of a choice but to shop the actual store in the mall, you should just try to get there fast so you can choose from variety of colors, light creme, black and blue.

Designer’s World 2010 in the Nutshell

Where do we arrive at the beginning of 2010, some of the news are bad and some of them are quite pleasant. I guess the PR world is not in the best position in the recent days. It has been experiencing lay offs at some of the top designer powerhouses like Chanel & Versace.


Karl Lagerfeld has decided that Beth Shapiro, "the director of global marketing and public relations for the designer's eponymous label", is to be laid off at the beginning of the year. No explanation was given.

Versace has laid off about 350 employees back in October and planning on departing US land including their PR team which due to stay unemployed locally.

There are some of the positive notes, Sarah Jessica Parker has been picked to be a design consultant at Halston.

Jimmy Choo had collaborated with Uggs to make their new creation of high heel "Hunter faux crocodile rainboots". Their Jimmy Choo embellished Uggs will be a hot item on the market, just watch!

Do you know Moises de la Renta? He is the son of legendary Oscar de la Renta who has been working on designing his own collection for Mango.
