Scenes from a Soiree ~ Part 1


With champagne corks popping and decadent eye candy everywhere you looked ~ Vignettes’ 18th anniversary soiree last Saturday was indeed a celebration of everything French, fabulous and fun.
We had primped, pouffed and prepared every square inch of the shop and we were definitely ready for our close-up, bien sur!
Our guest of honor, Miss Claudia Strasser, continues to amaze with her beauty, brains and endless joie de vivre. You can’t spend time with her without coming away a whole lot happier and a lot more inspired. She’s no longer just the ‘it’ girl of Paris, now, with her best-selling book - Paris Flea Market Style, throngs of fans and her famous, customized shopping tours to France and Italy ~ she’s become the ‘it’ mademoiselle in every city she travels to!
Here are scenes from the soiree, Part 1, and if you couldn’t make it that day, come on by ~ there’s still so much to see, to take in, to be inspired by…
Enjoy the Show ~

Oh, Gatsby!


One of the French Salons being featured at our 18th anniversary soiree was majorly influenced by the look and feel of ‘The Great Gatsby’.  
Be Still My Heart!
The settings, backdrop and gorgeous opulence of the era has been recreated in a look of ‘Gatsby Goes To Paris’ ~ It might even make you swoon…
(Not to worry, we have velvet fainting couches and satin chaise lounges for that)
You will need them when you see the hand-painted yards and yards of gleaming satin from designer, Karen Lampard who has, once again, unleashed her off the charts, creative abandon, and painted poems (F. Scott Fitzgerald) famous sayings (Coco Chanel) and elaborate monograms all over these textiles extraordinaire Stunning, to say the least!
See you here…
