Journelle’s The Registry

February 1, 2009 by Krista

Just in time for Valentine’s Day (as if I haven’t been talking about that enough), NYC boutique, Journelle, has launched its registry feature on the website! It’s the perfect way to drop a hint (or an explicit explanation) of what you want this Valentine’s Day (or any day for that matter). The information will be kept in your private Journelle file and can be used to help your significant other find that perfect gift. And if that isn’t enough, you can count on Journelle to send a subtle (or not-so-subtle) suggestion!

Here are a few things I think you should consider for your wishlist.

Dessous Amelie Jumper Dress

The Lake & Stars Wild West Teddy

Julianne Lola Slip

Riviera Runway Boutique – A New Discovery

April 17, 2008 by Krista

I recently had the challenge of trying to find the Honeydew Lazy Daisy Bralet and Boyshort online. A friend of mine, who is getting married next month, fell in love with this set, but unfortunately, they did not have her size in the color she wanted (white for her wedding!). So, I have spent the past two weeks tracking down this apparently popular set. After trying a number of my favorite sites with no luck (wrong sizes, wrong colors), I stumbled upon Riviera Runway Fashion Online Boutique. And lucky for me, they had exactly what I wanted!

While I was a little apprehensive about trying a new site, the clock is ticking, so I had to jump on it. Navigating the site was easy and the check out process was a breeze. I appreciated the follow up email detailing my purchase. The set was shipped the following day and arrived neatly packaged a few days later.

The site features swimwear brands like L*Space and Luli Fama and lingerie brands including Undrest and Dessous. While the number of brands featured is small, the selection is decent and the purchasing process is easy. I would definitely use this site again.
