Hot Shop: Colette’s 10th Anniversary!

What does the most stylish boutique in Paris get for its birthday? Nothing but ultra-exclusive, limited edition collaborations! If you’ve already made the pilgrimage to Colette, you know that its eclectic inventory of fashion, tech, art and design items have a constant handle on what’s hot—where else could you find must-haves like the Anya Hindmarch “I am not a plastic bag” tote, clothes by Proenza Schouler for Target and Victoria Beckham’s DVB sunglasses? But now it looks like the next hot items may be Colette-inspired. Chic designers like Lucien Pellat-Finet, Cartier, KidRobot and many more are paying homage to Colette and its milestone with their products. We love the “Make Me Sweat Colette” T-shirt from House of Holland and the Repetto ballet slippers printed with the store’s canine mascots Cap & Pep, $260 — and lust after these silver Goyard bags. If you can’t make the pilgrimage to Paris, check out the goods on the store’s ultra-cool website, colette.fr.

Colette is a great store, I especially love it since we share a name! My boyfriend took me there once, and I was able to afford a couple of things, so it’s not all ultra-expensive.

Collete is actually a great place that sells the some of the best bags. People think that they can only walk around in a LV or a Chanel but the one’s selling in Collettes are just as chic and cute. Great place.

I will not be pilgrimaging to Paris anytime in the near future. On the other hand, I will immediately be checking out this website! Ah—the joys of the Internet and your blog!

I definitely will be stopping by this store when I’m in Paris this July!
