Boutique Love ... A Post by Belle

Hello Girls!

Belle here!

Before I start, let me mention that

several girls have asked if we had an

Ooh La Frou Frou Button

that they could place it on the sidebar of their blog.

Well ... now, we do!

Just look in the right hand sidebar below Followers

over there ---->

and you'll find our Button with our logo girl

Tiffany

looking adorable on it!

Now, on to my post!

When the artist selected me for this week's blog post

and I found out what she would be introducing today,

I just knew what I'd be talking about!

Boutique Love!

Being a Southern-girl-turned-city-girl,

Boutique Love is something I love about city life!

And I especially love when several of the girls and I

grab breakfast and a cappuccino on a lazy weekend morning

and head out for a day of shopping in the city.

We love to hit all of the luxury boutiques,

even if it's just to look!

And all of the cheery colors

and bright lights of the fabulous boutiques

almost feel like ... springtime!

There are so many lovely places to go

that it's usually hard to make up our mind!

Do we shop for gorgeous lingeree at Agent Provocateur?

or perhaps at Journelle?

A little Lanvin Love would feel just right ...

and, of course, we simply must

sigh through the fabulous Ralph Lauren store,

pretending our gorgeous rich aunt lives there

and she's invited us to visit!

And why stop our fantasy there?

Our lovely pretend aunt

lets us raid her closets ... and she wears

just our size!

OF COURSE, what Boutique Love Day

doesn't involve shoes?

So, next on the agenda

would be to trot over to see what the fabulous Christian Louboutin

has up his sleeve.

The Christian Louboutin Spring/Summer 2011 Collection

is as yummy as springtime!

The colors of these ...

and this ...

are as juicy and springlike and fun as these!

And these ...

bring thoughts to mind of this!

These ...

and these ...

would look so right with a sundress and one of these ...

And, lastly, you can almost here the fireworks with these ...

or these!

These are but a few shoes in the new Loubtoutin spring/summer collection

and all of the bright colors in his collection

as well as the spring collections of all of the clothing designers this year

make all of the Ooh La Frou Frou girls

sooo looking forward to Spring!

How 'bout you?

Ahhh, Boutiques.

They take you away to another world

with their visual displays, bright lights and glamorous ambience.

I chose Boutique Love as my post

because the artist has something fun up her sleeve!

She created a piece of artwork

of a sitting area in a luxury shoe boutique.

It has a chocolate brown softly curvaceous settee

with a crystal chandelier hanging above it.

Looks like someone in the artwork (maybe you?)

has been on just such a shopping spree,

having fun trying on glamorous shoes!

This original illustration was created in pastels and acrylic

and limited 10" x 10" prints of the artwork will be signed and numbered

and available for purchase (unframed).

This is the first in a series of Settee Collection prints

that would be lovely for a dressing room.

In addition,

another Ooh La Frou Frou illustration

that has been featured on our website

has now been created as a print, as well.

This illustration shows a lovely Boutique dressing room

with sparkly gowns and cute dresses hanging

and shoes tossed about ..

and I see that someone (you again, perhaps?)

is in the fitting room!

Thanks for joining me, everyone,

for my Boutique Love post!

Hope everyone has a fabulous week ahead ...

and remember ...

think Spring!
