Start saving your pennies ladies and gents - Los Angeles vintage mecca Decadestwo is opening a New York City outpost next month.
They’ve acquired a small space above Soho’s Kiki de Montparnasse and collected 2000 pieces of designer clothes, jewelry, bags and shoes to sell to (new)vintage hungry New Yorkers.
The store will be there from May 14th to 17th but there’s one small catch, for the first few days it’s only open to their already loyal clients and invited guests. The public may shop on the last day, but who knows how much of the Marc/Chloe/Balenciaga/Chanel/Prada stash will be left by then - especially since loads of it will be priced about 80% below retail.
Rachel Zoe’s donated a good chunk of her closet and a portion of the profits will help a Detroit based charity.
Fingers crossed for Balenciaga SS08 florals.

Lauren Conrad’s designing for Kohl’s.
The no-longer-star of The Hills has been working with the department store for almost a year to produce an exclusive line, LC Lauren Conrad.
The announcement comes less than two months after reports that she’d be closing her own line,
though The New York Times says she’s just taking a break before re-launching her eponymous collection overseas in 2010. Apparently, she wants, “to give it a whole new feel.”
LC’s been hard at work designing “California inspired” t-shirts, dresses and jeans for Kohl’s, all of which will fall between $20 and $60.
Come October, three hundred stores will carry the collection and pending its inevitable success the other seven hundred Kohl’s locations across the country may pick it up.

US May 2009 issue of InStyle magazine is covered by American actress and hot 36-year-old mom Jennifer Garner.
She opens to readers about her family, about her husband Ben Affleck.
Ben will do the school run,”
He dresses her and does her hair. It’s pretty funny. You can always tell when he has been at it, just two random barrettes hanging in there. It’s so sweet.”
Ben can be pretty clueless when it comes to my clothes or makeup. But when he does notice and says something, he’s so sweet that I forgive him.”
On keeping it real:
I never go nuts with my look. It’s easy to feel like you’ve gone into caricature territory when you do. I’ve found that if you feel like a good, you’re going to look like one.”
