Rachel Ashwell Shabby Chic Couture

…and 5 MARCH MADNESS GIVEAWAYS

I was so excited when I found out that Rachel Ashwell’s  was coming back.  Rachel Ashwell is such a pioneer. She is one of my favorite in my list of top 10 designers!  Yes,  I have a list of my top 10..it often rotates! Anywayyy

She now has a store in Santa Monica , London and New York.

I was lucky enough to get some  free time and was able to visit the store with my Sister Donna from Donatella Style. To my surprise the most gracious, lovely Susan Todoran, General Manager of stores was working in the new Rachel Ashwell  Shabby Chic Couture, Santa Monica. Susan is very talented, helpful and answers all my questions. The staff is so friendly!

No snootiness here..

I was enjoying some chatting time with Susan when I thought hey, since Rachel’s beautiful stores are limited at this point. I thought I would bring the new store to YOU! 

With Susan’s permission I snapped away..

Enjoy the eye candy!  Warning tons of photo’s! Inspiration! Inspiration!

and  when your done check out these giveaway’s..
