Chic in New York: Etos

I've written about Etos before but they have recently renovated their space and it's definitely worth another look. The store is owned by Mercedes Desios and Alberto Villalobos who met while they were students at the New York School of Interior Design. They share not only a store but an interior design business and the chicest sense of style. Mercedes is Italian and Alberto is Colombian and it seems like they are always flying off somewhere exotic to source for the shop and holiday. They are not only talented but honestly two of the nicest people I've ever met. Their travels mean the shop is an eclectic mix of antiques, accessories and new pieces. I especially love the pre-Colombian bowls that Alberto brings back from visiting his family. I hope you'll stop by the next time you're downtown.

Club Monaco at Shopbop

0 comments

Club Monaco is one of my favorite retailers in New York. I always know I can find great clothing and accessories that don't scream where I bought them. I would always feel bad about posting my favorite pieces on Habitually Chic though because not many of my readers have access to their stores but all that has changed today. Shopbop has partnered with Club Monaco to offer their fabulous fall collection for sale online. I attended the launch party last night and am already eyeing that plaid coat above. It would be perfect for the cooler temperatures today. I'll leave the over the knee socks to you tall skinny girls! Happy Shopping!

Chic in New York: Gap & CFDA Limited Edition Collection

0 comments

The CFDA was very busy this week. First, they announced that they would be releasing American Fashion Designers at Home this fall and today, they have unveiled their collaboration with the Gap. The three CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund winners, Monique Péan, Patrik Ervell and Sophie Théallet, have designed special pieces that will be sold exclusively at the Gap's Fifth Avenue store. I'd take a walk over there today before they're gone! Happy Shopping!

Chic in Sag Harbor: JED

0 comments

After you visit Ruby Beets, make sure you head next door to JED. I could have also bought everything in this chic shop. It's a mix of French antiques and new pieces that all have a certain je ne sais quoi. While some pieces were expensive, those two chairs out front were only $450 for the pair. I had to do a double take to make sure I didn't miss a one in front of the price which is how much they would have cost in the city. Owner Jack Deamer clearly has a great eye and I look forward to make JED a regular haunt! Happy Shopping!
