Shop Alert: Kitchen Arts To Re-Open
Looks like Kitchen Arts won’t be vacating Newbury after all. There’s been some construction happening inside and the sign says it’s open during renovations. It also says “Kitchen Arts by Blackstone’s.” I’m guessing that’s the Blackstone’s of Beacon Hill, though there’s no mention on their website. Whomever it is, welcome!
Shop Alert: DVF to Open in Boston
Diane von Furstenberg has not only been busy designing groovy patterned wrap dresses; she’s been opening up boutiques worldwide; 28 internationally to be exact, though only five in the U.S. But business is booming and open she will. Although she’s got a flagship is in the Meatpacking District, and she’s secured a lease for a 2,000 square foot Soho outpost, which, according to WWD, Furstenberg says, will be “a lab to funnel ideas through all our stores and our wholesale business.”
More importantly, DVF is coming to Boston!! WWD reports that a DVF boutique will open in Boston in July. Must do some recon to find out where. I’m guessing Newbury; there are plenty of storefronts from which to choose. Any thoughts?
My favorite DVF looks for fall:

Local designer Daniela Corte is opening up her otherwise by-appointment-only studio at 211 Newbury St. (note – this is a new address) on Saturday 10am to 6pm for a sample sale of spring and summer pieces, plus past-season items at 60-80 percent off. Prices start at $10; cash or check only.
A few shots from Daniela Corte’s show during Boston Fashion Week this past fall:

Deal Alert: Cynthia Rowley Sample Sale in Boston
I was so excited when Cynthia Rowley opened a boutique on Newbury last year. Partially because it reminds me of my twenties in New York City; one of my favorite charity gala dresses is a Cynthia Rowley. I’m doubtful I will ever squeeze into its size 2-ness, yet I will never part with it. That said, I’ve hardly bought a thing at this still new shop. Well, now’s my chance. The Boston sample sale starts tomorrow and goes through Sunday, 10am to 9pm (really, in Boston, 9pm?!), up to 80% off on clothing and accessories. See ya there.
