RSS this is life in austin/aspen
Lately the world has seemed pretty small–a former job applicant turned freelance writer and friend of mine in Austin is best friends with the roommate of a girlfriend of a friend of my boyfriend’s in Aspen who was in Austin this weekend for his birthday party. What the what? Then I got an email about a new boutique from a former roommate and high school friend of mine, and later got an email from a basketball teammate’s little sister who I CrossFit with now whose cousin opened a new boutique … and it was the same girl!
Peacock Plume is a new online-only boutique started by besties Holly and Cara, who have this to say for themselves:
Think of us as your personal fashion spam filter! We’ll sift through miles of racks filled with absurd prices and pieces you’d never wear so you don’t have to…
Our site is unique in that we are offering a boutique style shopping experience but we cut out the snobbery and high prices.
I think their site is unique because they offer super cute outfit combos and actually tell you where to wear them and how to buy them, for around $140 for everything: top & bottom or dress, shoes, purse, accessories. Think:
The ladies do have an eye for fashion on the cheap–women after my own heart.
And, they launched on Tuesday and by Friday had a D Magazine mention … no small feat for a startup company!
Check it out. Peacock Plume.
