Introducing the new: www.AlejandraKearl.com!

I'm so exited to re-launch my website www.AlejandraKearl.com!
I use to have 2 sites; www.thebabychicboutique.com and www.alejandrakearl.com.
I use to retail on one site and wholesale on the other, I combined them both and now have one great new site.
From now on I will only be selling my products, it was too hard to sell other brands, keep stock and compete with big sites. I can now focus much better on my designs and website. I created a site that is easy to use,  has better images, it will be regularly updated and will always have lots of great deals available to my loyal customers.

Please take a look and let me know if you have any suggestions on how I can improve the site, I can always use your help :)!
I'm offering a 20% discount coupon, it's good until June 17th. Simply type 20%off upon checkout and you will get the discount even on Sale items!

Shipping is a flat $6 on all orders under $100 and it goes up just a few dollars on bigger purchases.

Thanks!

Great Vintage Inspired Dresses

I found HeartmyCloset on Etsy, she makes vintage inspired dresses, they are all so pretty, feminine, sexy, affordable and so stylish.

 

 

prices range from $62 to $120

What do you think? Would you wear these?

Friday Finds - 1950's Dresses

These dresses are so romantic, pretty and classic. I love clothes that stand the test of time, the dresses below are 1950's inspired, but they are still very much in style.

All Dresses are by Dasha Pomeranzev

I want all of Dasha's dresses you can see them here, aren't they stunning?

Anna Sui and Elie Tahari Fall 2011

Here are two more designers that I enjoyed from Fashion week.
I really liked Anna Sui's tops and dresses, they are colorful, whimsical and flattering.
Here are few of my favorites:

Bohemian-Chic

Granny-Chic

Baby-Chic :)

I just realized I might like Anna Sui's collection so much because it's similar to my own aesthetic.


From Elie Tahari's collection I loved most of the coats, my favorite one is the white coat (see min 1:14), the collar is incredible, so elegant! I couldn't find pictures, but here is the video:

Valentino

I'm so exited that Fashion week is coming up, I really want to see Christian Siriano's collection, he is so fierce! I also want to see Luca Luca and a few others.
I wish Valentino hadn't retired and he was still designing for "Valentino", ever since he retired and others are in charge of the designs I'm not loving the collections as much. He had such a distinct point of view,  his designs were just perfect elegance, I miss it. Red is one of my favorite colors and he always delivered the most beautiful red gowns.

Here are a few of my favorite Valentino designs:

Reese Whitherspoon wearing this stunning beaded cap sleeve gown in 2002

Miley Cyrus looking so elegant wearing this Valentino red gown in 2008

This is such a fun dress, Gwen looked great wearing this unique gown back in 2004

This feminine little black dress is just so delicate, love it!

I would love to wear one of these, wouldn't you?

Litlle Silk Dress Giveaway

I really love how this little dress turned out.

Thanks to my wonderful customers the Courtyard Collection 2010 has been one of my most successful lines so far. I only created a few pieces for this transitional line (between Summer and Fall).

I was a little nervous when I decided to design this line, most stores just stick to Spring/Summer and Fall orders, but I was out of Spring items and stores wanted more inventory. I tried many different colors before I settled on navy, steel blue, green and white, I added some ruffles for fun and gave it a bit of a bohemian vibe.
I only have a handful of dresses left, I didn't even get to sell them on my site :). If you are interested, you can play and win one of them. I have sizes 2/3 and 8/10 left (retail value is $50++)

So today I woke up before the alarm went off, this happens a lot when I'm working on something new. At the moment I've been trying to get my Fall 2010 line finalized and I have a million ideas in my head that I can't turn off at night, so they wake me up! I know it sounds crazy, but is the truth. I'll give you a sneak peak soon of what's been keeping me up at night.
