Last night I stopped by an opening party for a new store in downtown Charleston that I’ve been anxiously awaiting, Novel. You might be familiar with the ladies that joined forces for this venture: Lauren Lail of Library, Archives of Fashion, Jane Pope of Balboa Jewelry, and Way Way Allen of Blue Chickadee. I say “new store”, but really it’s not. Novel began as a pop up shop, and has now found a permanent place.
I was greeted by this lovely lady who served the most delicious little open face style cucumber sandwiches (she saw a lot of me).
Isn’t her Novel apron great?
I took all of these pictures with my phone, so I apologize for the poor quality. Here are some of the shots I took.
The whole store is painted white which really shows off all the items.
{That’s the beautiful Lauren Lail being interviewed by a local newspaper.}
I adore this red dress. And do you spy the lucite clothing rods? LOVE.
It was a great (and busy!) party. Congrats ladies. So happy to have yet another fabulous shop downtown (341 King St, Ste B).
Oh I’m loving the pink/purple tutu inspired skirt! so sweet! x
Do you know that I am totally living vicariously through you? :)
oh, I dream of a closet with lucite rods oneday, *swoon* xoxo shelli
Guess the pink tutu caught everyone’s attention! Love the canvas bags on the wall. And, the lucite rods are awesome.
no commentary on the pink tutu and leopard leggins?? ;-) cute store!
Wishing this would’ve opened last weekend so I could’ve taken a peek!
Have a great weekend, Chassity!
Is it funny that my favorite part of the post is the grown woman in a pink tutu??? I just love it! Oh that I had the courage to don whatever I felt like and strut down the street! I always think it’s amazing when women are so fearless in fashion (c: Happy weekend, my dear, enjoy it!
Looks so cute !! The lucite rods are amazing!
