Both of these luxury brands create distinctive modern looks for the woman that wants and craves her STYLISH wardrobe.  Let me start with Magaschoni and tell you that they introduced their 1st organic, eco-conscious pieces to a line in 2008.  They use primarily pure and natural yarns such as silk, cotton, wool & cashmere, rarely using synthetic fibers.  They also use low-impact and eco friendly dyes.  So I LOVE this brand just because going green in my book is STYLISH.  Lafayette 148 is all about being chic and modern with their luxurious fabrics they use to define each collection.  Well the brand has everything to do with the talent of Edward Wilkerson the creative force behind the brand.  Both of these tops are linen and both came out of the same thrift store in pristine condition which goes to show you luxury is out there waiting for you …..  Wait no father head to Doubletake my social media driven boutique in Atlanta and toodles for now.  Daniel your luxury curator!

This vintage cheetah print YSL silk blouse is just as STYLISH as the day it was created by YSL if not better.  The thing I love about luxury vintage is that it is timeless and this cheetah print silk blouse is just that so it makes for a good investment.  Founded in 1961, YSL is 1 of the great fashion names of all times.  The 1st couture house to introduce the concept of luxury pret-a-porter in a 1966 collection called “Rive Gauche”, YSL revolutionized the social cultural landscape.  Today creative director is Stefano Pilati.  My heart just sank when I saw the label, I was like a kid in a candy store except I’m a kid in a thrift store!  Carrying this lovely piece of art in my cart I knew I needed a pair of slacks that would just POP and viola here is a pair of Giorgio Armani black light weight wool that ties this YSL blouse up in a nice shiny bow.  So to recap this posting is about YSL & Armani and just typing those names give me the chill.  Chill is good…  Stop by Doubletake my social media driven boutique in Atlanta and friend me on Facebook and follow me on Twitter… toodles for now.  Daniel your luxury curator!!!

Every now and then I like to treat myself to some luxury and who could blame me for wanting this white Z Zegna shirt?  When I spotted this beauty waiting for me to pick it up at my favorite thrift store I said to myself “you know Daniel you can always use a nice white shirt” and I was right.  Alessandro Sartori is the designer for the Z Zegna label and has designed for this brand since 2002.  The Z Zegna is for a younger, fashion-conscious guy with a strong mentality, he likes his own STYLE, but he’s looking for a certain kind of design.  Zegna is perhaps more traditional yet luxurious by all standards.  I have somewhere between 15-20 Zegna long sleeve shirts in my closet and each one is my favorite!  What can I say but I love my Italians!!!   Stop by Doubletake my social media driven boutique in Atlanta and friend me on Facebook and follow me on Twitter… toodles for now.  Daniel your luxury curator!  

It’s the exact feeling you get when you’re riding in a Maserati going 120mph down the freeway that I get when I score something as lovely as this Kay Unger & Love Moschino.  It’s an adrenaline rush and a rush is a rush no matter how you experience it.  I love me some Kay Unger New York and this sexy little top with all its shine and piazza is so lovable….  Cupid has hit the bulls eye when I scored these Love Moschino gray slacks and paired it with Kay Unger.  Would you have thought you could find these lovely luxury items in a thrift store?  Think again darling, think again….  Stop by Doubletake my social media driven boutique in Atlanta friend me on Facebook and follow me on Twitter- toodles for now.  Daniel your luxury curator!  

This has absolutely nothing to do with this posting but today I spotted 2 fake Gucci tops and each time I spot a fake I ask myself “why”??  Why would anyone go through all the trouble of copying fakes of Gucci, Hermes, Prada and many other designers?  I mean not only trouble but run the risk of going to prison??  I think getting a real job would be more beneficial to this planet as opposed to knocking off artist / designers…. people are strange, I say that everyday!!!  Ok on this posting I pulled out from the same thrift store within minutes of each other a complete and STYLISH outfit I must say.  Look at this pink silk top by Cynthia Steffe in pristine condition and just as pink as a mouse’s ear and this black Maria Bianca Nero classic skirt is on fire.   Someone call 911!   I love pulling pieces together from thrift stores and arranging them into ensembles showing you guys everyday that you too can do this and dress sleek.  Sleek is the new black haven’t you heard?  Stop by Doubletake my social media driven boutique in Atlanta and toodles for now.  Daniel your luxury curator!  

I can no longer go all Madonna on you and sing “Like a Virgin” when it comes to Black Halo because this is my first piece I’ve scored from a thrift store.  That’s right I’ve long to talk about this brand and talking about this brand when you find a silk sassy dress makes my life so easy.  Black Halo is designed to summon natural inner beauty and confidence that is both liberating and empowering to women when worn or at least that’s what they say on their website!!!!  Black Halo is designed by Laurel Berman based in Los Angeles and she has elevated this brand to a level in contemporary fashion that can be considered iconic.  Berman created a brand that is now synonymous with beauty and modern day STYLE.   This is a simple sassy dress that has the making of a very memorable evening wouldn’t you say???  It’s to bad I couldn’t have found these wedge peep toe McQueen heels in the the thrift store to match this dress up STYLISHLY….  Stop by Doubletake my social media driven boutique in Atlanta and friend me on Facebook and follow me on Twitter… toodles for now.  Daniel your luxury curator!  

Would you think that you could waltz into a thrift store and put together this ensemble?  Well I hope you said yes darling because that’s where these lovely items came from.   Now if I waltzed into a thrift store and yanked out a satin sheen Halston cream blouse and then gobbled up this khaki Burberry skirt, tiny but still a skirt, I’m thinking you can too.  I know if I can do this then you can too and that’s the pleasure I get out of thrifting, it’s like treasure hunting only less dangerous!!!  I love this cream Halston blouse but I love anything Halston and I hate to hear that everyone has left Halston now with Harvey Weinstein – Sarah Jessica Parker to their designer Marios Schwab everyone has jumped ship.  I wish that Tom Ford (my hero) would come to the rescue and save Halston like how I saved this blouse!!!  Stop by Doubletake my social media driven boutique in Atlanta and friend me on Facebook and follow me on Twitter…toodles for now.   Daniel your luxury curator!

Each of these items were pillaged out from 2 different thrift stores and I couldn’t have paired them up any better.  Both are nylon and both are sporty and active, so you can be STYLISH and sporty all at once.  The navy top by Louis Feraud is just your classic top and the link I picked for Louis Feraud will show you what his vintage pieces sell for so the next time your thrifting be sure you keep an eye for anything vintage by Feraud.  The navy Versace Intensive is Versace’s active line that produces swimwear, underwear, sports bras blah blah blah.  Versace designs and creates everything under the sun, they even do interiors of private jets!!!  I know nice right??  So the next time you pull a Olivia Newton John and get all Physical on me do it in STYLE..  Stop by Doubletake my social media driven boutique in Atlanta and please friend me on Facebook and follow me on Twitter.  Daniel your luxury curator!
