August Giveaway: Five Gift Cards to Boutique of Couture!

By Katie M

Ladies, you are going to flip! Remember how I blogged about my everyday "momiform" and how hard it can be to find good quality designer clothes at prices we can actually afford? Well, this is no longer a hardship because I recently discovered Boutique of Couture , and I can now pop in there anytime (literally so because I live around the corner) and find some of the most sought-after brands for a fraction of what I thought I would pay. The pieces you will find at this boutique - and the unexpected prices - will astound you. They carry styles for all shapes, and not just for skinnies. Seriously fashionistas, I think this store could quite possibly be one of the Triad's best kept secrets.

And now it's time for you to see what's in store at Boutique of Couture. This Smarty Sponsor is graciously offering five $20 gift cards to five very lucky TSP newsletter subscribers. And don't be fooled: You will be pleasantly surprised to see how far $20 will get you. On top of this, Boutique of Couture is offering $5 off to ANY reader who mentions Triad Smarty Pants at check-out, and a free pair of earrings to any reader who comes in and tries on one of their popular Mink Dresses (see black dress pic below.)

Let me tell you about my first shopping experience at Boutique of Couture. I was under deadline to find two dresses in one day. One dress was for a cocktail-attire rehearsal dinner, and the other was for a late afternoon wedding. I literally had 90 minutes to find these dresses before my husband headed to his next work meeting (he came home to watch the kids). Since Boutique of Couture is just down the street from me (and happens to be one of our Stylin' Smarty sponsors), I started there. Thirty minutes later, and less than $100 out of wallet (total!), I had my two dresses! I was thrilled (and I think my husband was even happier :)) I chose the a Mink dress and a classic London Times sleevless print dress - both of which received numerous compliments at the events I attended.


Before you register for this giveaway, here are some shopping tips on new arrivals at Boutique of Couture. Their new designer jeans are SAWARY from Brazil. They retail for $100, but Boutique of Couture has a special deal as the first North Carolina boutique to carry the Brazilian line. Their introductory price through December will be just $59 for these jeans!!! The come in a variety of styles and colors. The best thing about these jeans is that they lift and shape your backside like no other jeans.

And starting this first week of August, all designer jeans (except for SAWARY) will be on sale for $29, $50, or $99. Go now to get a great deal on high-end designer jeans for the fall!


Like I mentioned, Boutique of Couture also carries the New York labels of London Times and Maggy London, as well as the Jessica Simpson label. These dresses are great for work, church, and special occasions are priced from $60 to $89. Currently, in the store there is a wide selection of sleeveless London Times and Jessica Simpson dresses on sale for $45.

For everyday, Mink dresses are available in blue, fuchsia, peach, and black. These dresses are from Los Angeles, retail for $35, and are great to wash and wear and throw in a suitcase. Put a Mink dress on with flip-flops and go to the park, or add a necklace and heels and wear it to dinner. All Mink dresses are now on sale for $30until the end of August 2010.

For a more fun and flirty look, Boutique of Couture carries the label “Double Zero.” This label is also out of Los Angeles. These dresses are bold colors and patterns and range from $30 to $48. Looking for a great date night dress, a Double Zero dress is sure to get heads turning.


For T-shirts, Boutique of Couture carries the label LA Base out of Los Angeles. These shirts look great with capris, jeans, or skorts. Colorful patterns make these shirts stand out in a crowd. All La Base t-shirts are $18 dollars. During August, you can buy a shirt and get a free scarf (one scarf per customer per day)!
