BOUTIQUING WEEKLY GIVEAWAY ~ $104 Vieta Maddie Ocean Handbag from Lilac Bijoux Boutique

You could win this....

from
Lilac Bijoux Boutique

Our biggest thrill here at Boutiquing.com comes when we discover a new boutique that is so amazing we can't wait to tell our friends about it. Our latest find came by way of facebook - all the way from Maryland! One look at the unique and affordable accessories at Lilac Bijoux, and we could not wait to share. Their website is easy to shop, and their products are updated often, so even those of us on the west coast can enjoy the bounty of this bauble filled boutique.

This week, Lilac Bijoux is giving one "lucky liker" a gorgeous and soft vegan leather bag in a breathtaking and statement making shade of ocean blue. This roomy bag is 15x12 and will perfectly fit all your summer essentials without any unsightly overflow.
Ready to do some shopping for sparkles? Head over to lilacbijoux.com and find great lines like MGold from Brazil and Bohm - a whimsical line that won't hurt your wallet, my favorite is this beautiful $34 bee ring.

Initial necklaces are flying off their shelves, go mod with type set styles by local designer Lotus, or ornate with wax stamp replicas by Waxing Poetic. Make sure you check out their fab facebook page - these ladies have some great conversations going on, and you always get the first glimpse at the latest pieces to arrive!

The Collective Boutique and Showroom - Indie Designers Unite

The Collective Boutique - San Clemente, Orange County Boutique Pique
By: April Madigan @Boutiquing

Set the Scene: Some of our favorite boutique shopping experiences happen when we stumble upon an unknown designer with that "it" factor. The Collective Boutique brings together 4 independent designers with lots of loveliness filled to the brim with "it". Blending the beautiful bags of Moda Viajando, sultry swimwear by Kai La Mare, updated vintage from Kult, and precious knit accessories from Purl, this boutique left me with that satisfied, "look what I discovered" feeling that I was eager to share. Oh, and did I mention that these collections all retail for well under $100? Enjoy the coastal breeze blowing in the front door, the cool serene surroundings, and stock up on treasures for yourself and your best buds who are impossible to shop for!

Labels We Love:
Totes, clutches, and cross body bags by Moda Viajando, Colorful bikinis by Kai La Mare, renewed vintage pieces by Kult, and hand crocjeted headbands, sun hats (made from paper!), and booties by Purl.


Prepare to Pay:
TOPS: $24 to $50
DRESSES: $19 to $50
DENIM: $24 to $34
JACKETS: $24 to $40
PURSES: $28 to $90
HOME DECOR: $11 to $42
SWIMWEAR: Tops $38 Bottoms $42
KNIT ACCESSORIES: $18 to $40
JEWELRY: $4 to $12
ANYTHING UNDER $80? Practically the entire store - in fact most is under $50!

Summed Up in Sentence: If you are always the first of your friends to find a fab designer, fly down to The Collective Boutique and have a field day getting your fashion fix while supporting a cool new crop of local designers.
