cheers to old lusso!

so yesterday (saturday, september 22, 2007) was the last day of
business at 'old lusso' (12a n meramec).
after 5 we sat down and had a lovely glass of wine, a surprise
delivery by the wine merchant (thanks kasey!), and got a little weepy...
we laughed and cried, talked about all the friends we've gained, how
wonderful the last seven years (yes 7!) have been and how we're all
so glad to have been a part of this journey. all the fabulous
parties, all the art fair craziness, a great run in a fabulous place.
thank you, everyone, for feeling at home here, and making this not
just a great place to shop, but a nice place to hang out too.
cheers to 'old lusso'! here's your glass of wine!

We're Moving!

ok, so its a GORGEOUS day in the lou.  perfectly blue skys, cool breeze, the scent of autumn...  YEAH!  i'm soooooo ready for fall!
i love sweater and jeans weather!  we've been getting great sweaters from laurie b. and skif,  lots of charcoal and black (THE colors of fall!)  and some cute add down, a coat and a vest, expecting more from italy any day.  more beautiful grey and black from nanette lepore, too.  plus, you know we get loads of jewelry in for art fair.  maggie nola, melissa joy manning, anne sportun, marcia moran, double happiness...

anyway.... big news if you haven't figured it out, or didn't see it in the windows at the shop during art fair this weekend - its true!  WE'RE MOVING!
our beautiful new digs are being completed as we speak.  don't stress - its only a few blocks, and we're staying in clayton!  its the awesome new crescent building, just across the fountain from the ritz, luciano's and the plaza building.  we'll let you in on more of the businesses joining us at the crescent later.  

for now here's the details you need to know:
our new address is 165 carondelet plaza
we'll be open on meramec until aproximately saturday sept 22nd.
we'll probably be closed both places for about 2 weeks to facilitate the move.
we're planning (keep those fingers crossed) to be open at the new shop monday oct 8th.
don't worry, no big changes in merchandise, just lots more of all our favorites, and a few new fabulous designers, too.
our new space will be just as gorgeous and homey as this one, but also more spacious, and little more 'green' if you know what i mean.

so keep your ears open, we'll be letting you know more info soon.
