In the Spotlight

We thought we would share these images with you. Last night The Lake & Stars Opportunity Trench was featured on Desperate Housewives...the item was purchased at our boutique, and a TLS fan happened to capture the images from the show!
Here's Teri Hatcher wearing the Opportunity Trench in the way it was meant to be worn! Notice the pretty blue silk lining in the last pic - it's a pretty piece!

Fleur T - Very Berry Collection

The Very Berry collection from Fleur T is the perfect color for this season's lingerie. All of the pieces are made in a decadent blackcurrant color, with purple and cranberry accents. In true Fleur T form, these pieces can easily be worn during the day under clothing or for a special occasion.
We know this is going to be another bery (typo and I'm keeping it) popular group - the rich colors are just stunning!
Here are pictures of the collection, which really speak for themselves!

Keep Me - a new loungewear line!

We are proud to introduce Keep Me, a fairly new loungewear line based in Malibu, CA. This company specializes in modal separates, such as tank tops, lounge pants, nighties, and sweaters. We've seen just how popular modal can be, with the customer response to modal products from sheandme...basically modal is a synthetic material that is like a silky soft cotton that feels absolutely amazing.
We consider this brand pretty fashion-forward, and it's more like stylish clothing that you would feel comfortable lounging in. It's casual and sophisticated at the same time.
Our favorite pieces are the Jenny Nightie (worn as a top) and the Nikki Racer Back Tank - we are taking those items for ourselves, and plan on giving them plenty of use! We hear that the best-selling item is the Anne Marie Tie-Back Nightie.
The owners of the company, Ali Kay and Anne des Barres, suggest that you wear Keep Me "when you get home from the office and you cannot wait to change out of your work clothing, when you’re ready to curl up in bed with a good book, to head to the gym or yoga studio, or even to run out for coffee." We couldn't agree more!

Donna Karan New York

Donna Karan coat

Madame V robe

We are finally catching up on a stack of fashion magazines that has been growing by the day. Upon flipping through Bazaar and Vogue, we have been intrigued by the Donna Karan ad campaign, namely because of a beautiful pale pink ostrich feather coat.

Yes, we have a thing for ostrich feathers...it's such a fun trim (along with sequins!). In any event, the image reminded us of our favorite Madame V ostrich feather robe that has since sold out. In fact, our last robe in stock went to a very dear reader of ours (yes, Katie we're talking about you!). One significant difference between our Madame V robe and the Donna Karan coat is that the robe cost about $800 and the coat costs $6,200! Both pieces remind us of that gorgeous robe from the film "Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day" - we still want that robe! Since we sold out of the Madame V robes, we haven't been able to find an amazing ostrich trim robe since.
In searching the Donna Karan website, we see that intimate apparel is a key component to her work. She believes that a great foundation for building a Spring wardrobe, for example, is a great chemise upon which you can layer. Of course the Donna Karan brand includes its own lingerie label, which most of us have probably bought at one point or another.
