“Dress shabbily and they remember the dress; dress impeccably and they remember the woman.” Coco Chanel

Everyone has that woman you look up to for all the right reasons. Sheʼs got it all: the look, the life, the je nais se quoi. When she enters the room, when she walks down the street, itʼs effortless. Achieving this status is something you may strive for, but you donʼt want to be her, you want to be you.

For me, itʼs Audrey Hepburn when sheʼs wearing Givenchy on screen.

It could be Blake Lively, donning an amazing dress time and time again on the red carpet.
Or itʼs Coco Chanel, with her oversized sunglasses, long strand of pearls, and go to signature suit jacket; handbag in tote.

This is where it starts; that personal perfection that molds you in to your own sartorial ambitions, shaping you into the women that you will become, not just on the outside but on the inside.

They say you should dress for the job you want, but you should also dress for the life you want to live. This is the essence of Elitaire: the French word for Elite. Now, I donʼt mean Elite in the sense that itʼs not for everyone; I mean Elite in the sense that it makes you feel like youʼre not just anyone.

To help build your wardrobe, I am going to stock my racks with classic and boldly chic pieces; gorgeous shift dresses that are flattering for everyone, pencil skirts that make the outfit pop, blouses in prints, colors, luxurious fabrics, and embellishments that pair well dressed up or dressed down. Letʼs not forget the shoes. Shoes are always a way to make every outfit your own; whether you like sky-high stilettos, dʼOrsay heeled mules, or flats with flare, there is something that will make every outfit feel custom. Add all the accessories to tie it all together and youʼve created your look du jour. This is Elitaire.

Unfortunately, gone are the days where dressing was an art form. Where women got up and strategically planned their head-to-toe look. The Elitaire Experience is bringing the art of dressing back, so you feel like a work of art, whether youʼre walking down the street or hanging in le Louvre –  all at an amazing price point. Everything in our store is under $200.

The Elitaire Experiene is more than just shopping; you can go anywhere to shop. We donʼt want you to just browse the racks. We want you to come in, sit down and feel like youʼre in the closet youʼve always wanted to have with your girlfriends. Personal shopping is here as an added bonus when needed. Whether that be for a special occasion, a job interview or to reinvent your style. We just want you to be you.

As Coco Chanel famously said “Donʼt be like the rest of them, darling.”
