I wanted to show that you can also wear crystals in a casual way, dressed down for daytime. I paired my Spring 2012 crystal top with cutoff shorts, and a Spring 2012 dove cardigan, which you can now buy on our website! http://www.chanluu.com/Sweaters-p/th-swt-5319webdov.htm

Architecturally, it is considered to be a classic New York landmark. It is monumental both is size and style. I loving stopping by on my way home to check out what’s going on, there are always people buzzing around.

Have a great weekend!

]]>The Edge.http://blog.chanluu.com/blog/2012/2/13/the-edge.htmlChan Luu2012-02-14T01:44:40ZHello everyone, my name is Nik Sarac and I am the lead graphic designer here at Chan Luu.  I do all of the product photography, banners, and other miscellaneous graphics you may see on our website.

I'm excited to get to know everyone as I guest blog here and there throughout the year, and am especially excited to have the opportunity to introduce some of the new pieces from our men's collection.

My style is very eclectic, ranging from 70's punk to modern black and whites, and our collection has a little bit of everything for every era I choose to dress in.

I especially love the red browns and metallic green colors throughout the collection.

You can get what I'm wearing on the 14th of this month, so keep a lookout!!

Until next time,
Nik

Heather is a delicate and whimsical color, perfect to compliment the forthcoming spring season. My sparkly beaded Chan Luu swing top from our Spring 2012 collection is now available on our website!

]]>Colette.http://blog.chanluu.com/blog/2012/2/7/colette.htmlChan Luu2012-02-07T16:22:30ZThis past week Jillian, Terry, and I from the New York office along with Victoria and Tessa from LA were in Paris for the Premiere Classe tradeshow at Port a Versailles. Although we work non-stop in Paris, we always make time to visit Colette. Colette is quite possibly the coolest store ever! It is a concept store in every sense of the word. It is packed with high fashion, street fashion, food, culture, beauty, design, and art.

There are no pictures allowed inside of Colette, this I found out very quickly when I tried snapping a few shots on the ground floor. The  picture below gives you an idea of just how many people stop in Colette a day. It is always packed with locals and tourists alike.

If you are ever in Paris you must go to Colette.

It is located at 213 Rue Saint-Honoré.

I am Jillian, the international and department store rep at Chan Luu, and you will be hearing from me occasionally for guest blogs on our website.

2012 has been a whirlwind for our company so far, with tradeshows in NY, Paris, Chicago, Dallas, Atlanta, and market in LA. We also just finished the Gift Show in NYC and I wanted to share a little, since this is a brand new show for Chan Luu.

We created a beautiful custom booth and here is a photo of the huge sign with our logo:

Since this is a gift show, here are some of my favorite styles from the new spring collection that I think would make great gifts:

These bracelets come in sets of three in cute vintage silk boxes:

 

I love this wrap bracelet and it is available on our website right now under 'new this month - gypsy leather gifts'

Gifting Chan Luu is the best... one for me, one for you!
