Simple Style for Your Home and Life

Grand Opening of Brahmin Charlotte

on October 28, 2015 in Events/ Fashion/ Shopping 4

WELCOME BRAHMIN!

Charlotte is so happy to have you here and it was more than obvious at last week’s Grand Opening! I was lucky enough to be able to co-host the event with the fabulous Emily of Life with Emily and we had a blast to say the least! It was really cool to see so many loyal Brahmin customers flock through the doors! There was definitely a buzz in the air.

I know the spotlight is on the beautifully crafted handbags, and I promise I’ll get to that, but first I have to mention the amount of sheer style packed into the boutique. Sputnik lights, navy paneled walls, insanely cool chairs, say no more!!

With that being said the natural next step for a boutique this chic is a line of home decor which of course I love. Brahmin has added multi-sized trays, the cutest wine charms you ever did see, journals and wine bags wrapped in their embossed leather just like their bags. I’m a sucker for the iPhone cases and tassel key chains too! If you saw my bar cart styling post you know that a good tray is one of my favorite accessories for any space!

I’m pretty much speechless over the bags. Crossbody’s, clutches, totes, and oh the backpacks! Almost all of the bags have adjustable straps, lots of pockets and an enormous amount of detail making each one feel like a custom piece.

I think the Brulee collection was my was my favorite color of all! This Alena Crossbody is just fabulous!

I also surprised myself by falling in love with the darling backpacks! Emily and I both walked around with them on for most of the night!

The shopping experience was top notch and customers were able to enjoy cocktails and hors d’oevers and get a first look at the holiday collection as well as new products exclusive to Charlotte. Also, proceeds from the evening went to benefit the National Breast Cancer Foundation and they have a gorgeous pink collection supporting the cause.

I was obviously a little torn, the selection was just too good! My heart wanted the backpack or the Alena crossbody but my practical self won over and the Lincoln satchel came home with me. I couldn’t decide between the two sizes but everyone loved the large one so I went with that. Go big or go home, right?

By the end of the night my feet were tired so I crashed for a few minutes in these gorgeous chairs (that made my interior design loving heart flutter) chatting with the amazing Brahmin team. They were so gracious and you could tell they stand behind their brand 100%.  I was honored to be a part of this special day and I hope you guys will stop in next time you are at SouthPark Mall or a boutique in your city.
