Winter Couture Wonderland


The south is at the mercy of an arctic front... even the oranges are freezing in the sunshine state! Subfreezing temperatures often deter potential consignors and customers, so it's a great day to start our style blog! Sometimes high-end pieces can be a little intimidating... do I dress it up? dress it down? What do I wear with it? The alleyway behind Boutique is fantastically sparse and dismal, a perfect backdrop for a Winter Couture Wonderland pictorial! Carrie was quick to pull together 2 ensembles for Barbara and Casey from the Boutique merchandise. Call or come by to try it on for yourself!
