I found this unique boutique on an afternoon stroll in the West Village on my way to a book reading at The Strand. Annelore was founded by Juliana Cho in 2002. Her pieces are timeless, original and elegant. I fell immediately in love with her sleeveless, pinstripe, ruffled waist-tied top. So excited about my purchase, I wore it the very next day to a brunch with my sisters at Bergdorf Goodman, styled with a leather skirt by Nili Lotan.

In a world of fashion, design and finding your own look/image, I thrive on young designers who can find their path and create an individual style that is original and removed from the expected.

Thank you Juliana, I will be back!
