Label Lust: Couture Couture

ccla

Couture Couture is the upscale runway label by the designers of Juicy Couture. It ranges between $800 and $3300 from what I’ve seen. It’s in this special center room all by itself on the top floor of the Juicy flagship store on 5th avenue. I was there last week and it was closed for an opening party even though the store has been open for a month.

I kept going to visit the black, mink-trimmed Couture Couture coat that Sarah Silverman just ruined for me. It costs like $3300, but employees get 40% off, and I’m good at making new friends… Jessica Szohr, my least favorite member of the GG cast, wore this green Couture Couture dress, which is on now on sale at Net-a-Porter. Vanessa Abrams, slumming it again. Surprise, surprise.

In addition to the formerly fabulous coat, Couture Couture’s designs are as classic but still modern. Celebrity fans include Fergie and Mischa Barton.

Tory Burch Ankle Boots

I heart these. They also come as a lower-heeled pump. I tried them on at the store, and I felt like a new woman. Yes, I realize how ridiculous that sounds. tory

Buy them for me here.

Label Lust: Chanel

I. Love. Chanel. This label, which has been in business since 1909, is classic and innovative at the same time. Here is my favorite look from the Paris-Londres 2007-2008 collection. The skirt is cashmere :) I’ve seen those boots in the store too. Very cute. The website doesn’t put prices online, but I did check in the store about the mink headband and it’s $1495. *sniffle*
