Luxe Boutique Closing
Mt. Pleasant boutique hosts closing sale
Posted by Erica Jackson on Wed, May 27, 2009 at 4:02 PM
Mt. Pleasant boutique Luxe announced today that they're closing. In a Facebook message to fans, owner Amber Barron said, "It is with a deep and saddened heart I have to email you today to inform you all of our store closing. With the summer season upon us and still no increase in sales, we find ourselves closing our doors. You all know how much this store was my passion. To see it end like this is my worst nightmare. Thank you all for you love and support." But alas, their loss is your gain. They've got 30-40 percent off everything in the store, $5 flip-flops, buy-two-get-one-free items, and more. Check them out at 652 Coleman Blvd.

Eden Boheme Now Open on King
Viva la vie Boheme
Posted by Erica Jackson on Fri, May 22, 2009 at 2:37 PM
A few new stores are popping up on King Street in the next few weeks. Jayne, opening on May 27 at the old Pete Banis location, features designer clothing with some intense discounts — we're talking 70-80 percent off. We also caught sight of a new olive oil shop coming in a little further down King. No word yet on when it opens, but we'll keep our ears open for all you cooking aficionados. Newly opened this week is Eden Boheme at 194 King Street. Owners Lucinda Race and Anna Lassiter will feature their own lines in the future, but for now they have an impressive array of designs from France, New York, and Australia in the clothing and furniture boutique. Each line they carry is available in Charleston solely through the shop. In celebration of the arrival of Kathryn Amberleigh shoes, the store is serving champagne tomorrow from 10 a.m.-6 p.m. The space is tiny, but we had trouble finding anything in the store that we didn't love. The prices aren't outrageous, either. Not to say that this store is for those on a tight budget, but the Kathryn Amberleigh line came in mostly around $150. Stop in for the champagne and we can almost guarantee you won't leave empty handed. —Moira Phillips
