EDGE-ucation 101 - I LOVE NYC!


I'm a New Yorker at heart.  
I was born in Manhattan and have a special place in my heart for the Big Apple.  
I try and find an excuse to get back there at least once a year just to get my "fix" and
I just returned from NY this past Monday.  I can go on and on about the things I love about New York, however I'll just highlight a few for now...

The Mercer Hotel - 75 loft-style rooms, perfectly nestled in the heart of NY's hip & trendy SoHo district. 

Katz's Famous Deli - The best deli in New York since 1888!







The romantic & scenic Boathouse  Restaurant - Central Park
And, of course, this wouldn't be a style blog if I didn't mention something about New York style.  New Yorker's definitely have a different style "edge".  It's not better or worse, it's just different.  Different than what we are used to.  Definitely more trend & label conscious.  More urban.  More formal.  More refined.  There is a greater sense of individuality through style in New York.  People are more daring and take more style "risks" when stepping out, especially as you move farther away from Wall Street.


When you visit Edge Boutique, you'll notice that I really tried to capture a bit of that New York "vibe" in not only the details and aesthetics of the shop but also in the merchandise we carry.  At the same time, we are working hard to promote your unique individuality but in a price sensitive way.  So, rather than spending $200-$300 bucks on designer denim, we carry similar looks and labels in the $80-$150 range that will give you that same look and the same level of quality.

Here are a couple of this week's featured items!

Still hard to believe he's gone :(

The "X" Factor

I'm not talking about this guy...

What is the "X" Factor?
Definition: x factor, n., a hard-to-describe influence or quality; 
an important element with unknown consequences.

One of my favorite books is Malcolm Gladwell's, Outliers; The Story of Success
In it, among many of his brilliant quotes, he writes; 
".....it would be interesting to find out what goes on in that moment 
when someone looks at you and draws all sorts of conclusions."
He goes on to say;
"If you work hard enough and assert yourself, 
and use your mind and imagination, 
you can shape the world and your desires."

Okay, so what's my point?
This is going to sound a little Tony Robbins or Joel Osteen 
but I honestly believe that we ALL have a little "X-Factor" in us.  
The problem is that we fail to embrace it b/c we've allowed things like
words spoken over us, what we think others think of us,
passivity, opportunities "lost", etc... 
to "stunt" our potential.  
We all have a contribution to make while we are here on earth.
We all have a legacy to leave behind.
Life is a journey, not a destination.
If we all embrace this,
together we can put a
 nice
 little
 "dent"
 in the world :)

EDGE-ucation 101



Hello Friends!

Welcome to the first edition of EDGE-ucation 101 !!!

I've been wanting to start a blog for a long time now and that time has finally come.

Here's what you can expect to see from my weekly posts;

* Key element - promise to keep it "short and sweet".
* Audience - anyone who likes to wear clothes;) Okay, more specifically, anyone who is interested in style, celebrity-inspired trends, fashion tips and the celebration of everyone's unique sense of style!
* Edge Boutique Danville - Obviously, I am bias toward Edge as I am the owner, however I intend to keep this blog real and honest.  If there is a "look" or a trend to discuss or promote, I will let you know if you can expect to find it at Edge or elsewhere.  In some cases, I may recommend a similar look for less $'s if we can help you pull it off;)

So, let's kick it off!

"Ordinary riches can be stolen, real riches cannot.  In your soul are infinitely precious things that cannot be taken from you." - Oscar Wilde

I love this quote.  
Why?
Because our identity is not to be found in the riches of this world or the "stuff"
we so long for (money, cars, clothes, etc..).  
Instead, God has gifted each of us with a uniqueness that is 
priceless and exactly as He intended. 
Therefore, let your "YOU" shine brightly for all of us to see and enjoy! 


Jumpers & Maxi's are trending for her!
