Ziezo’s Jeffrey Campbell Trunk Show
One of the things I really miss about Chicago besides Bratwurst and Ikea are the unique neighborhood boutiques. There really are just a handful here in St. Louis, but one of the oldest and the first one I found when I moved here is Ziezo in the U-City Loop neighborhood. Jenna (Ziezo’s fashion aficionado) was kind enough to let me know about the upcoming Jeffrey Campbell Trunk Show. If you are not familiar with his stuff, you can check him out at Urban Outfitters and Nordstrom. I’m a little boot c-r-a-z-y at the moment, and he’s got an array of boot flavors; flats, heels and slouches with buckles, finge, peeptoe - you name it. Yummy. So, if you are in the St. Louis area try to stop by because it sounds awesome. If not, you can check out a sampling of my favorites below.
*Small Print: November 29th, from 2 to 6 pm, join the entire Ziezo staff as they welcome Ty McBride, NYC based brand specialist and line builder for hot shoe brand Jeffrey Campbell. McBride will work the Ziezo floor, along with team Ziezo, displaying an expanded collection of styles from the Jeffrey Campbell FW/0809 Collection. A limited edition Jeffrey Campbell key fob charm necklace will be given away with the first 50 shoe purchases during the trunk show. Plus, customers will be entered in a drawing for a $50.00 Ziezo gift certificate and gift bag to help get their holiday shopping started. Holiday beverages, light hors d’oeuvres and discounts storewide will accompany the in-store event.*
St. Louis Modernism
It’s pretty difficult to find something to be excited about in St. Louis. It seems many exhibitions, concerts, tours skip right over us and head straight to Chicago, but this month there are two events that make me feel warm and fuzzy. This weekend was the second annual Ivey-Selkirk Modernism auction. I was able to get some things for home and work. It definitely can be a hit or miss auction with the past few being misses, but this last one was finally a hit. I was so excited when a friend of mine got this awesome Hvidt sofa for his basement. It was probably my favorite piece in the auction and at about $1,000 it was way below the $2,000 estimate. So happy for him.
I hold a special place in my heart for Castelli and Columbo, but never really have a place for these pieces. I did get the yellow child’s chair for Samson and the red Kartell cart. I love the 2 piece Componibili circle pieces, but the color was a close miss for me.
I love, love, love this Knoll piece and can’t wait to have it in the house even if it will technically be in the garage waiting for resale. L-O-V-E it.
Also, currently at the Kemper until January is the Birth of the Cool exhibition. It is on my must do this week, so I will update later. For the locals this is old news, but I still haven’t made my way over there.
