I’ve been a busy elf putting together my holiday gift guide and realized much of my browsing is targeted on a select assortment of online boutiques. So I’m starting off my holiday inspired posts with a list of the top ten online boutiques to shop for fashionable gifts this season. All of these boutiques offer a wide range of unique gift options, as well as online shopping. But a few have an actual storefront, so if you don’t shop online, just show up and shop in person.

Finally, Ten Over Six, one of my favorite L.A. based accessory stores has launched an e-commerce site and to celebrate they’re offering 15% off site wide with coupon code “BUYME”, valid this week only. Hmm….what to buy? I think I’m going to finally buy these black Cat Pumps — they really go with anything.

Los Angeles accessories boutique Ten Over Six has added designer to their resume. Technically, they already are designers as store co-proprietor and creative director Kristen Lee is a shoe designer, but this is a first for the store as a whole. They’ve created a colorful collection of shoes, bags, coats and accessories to compliment their fall arrivals from designers like Vena Cava, Rachel Comey, and Alexander Wang.
Some pieces are quilted, some are hand dipped in paint and they even designed some great over sized rings in conjunction with Steven Alan. Ten Over Six mentions that this initial collection is small and just a tease for what’s to come. Pieces are in stores now at 7427 Beverly Blvd.

We featured two styles from Kristen Lee’s Spring ’08 collection of shoes a while back. We’ve been meaning to re-visit the line (we sometimes have to distance ourselves when drawn towards a collection, in sake of our tendency to overspend). Well, when a designer you love opens a fantastic accessories store in L.A., you can’t help but dive in for more. If you haven’t visited, please check out Kristen Lee’s new boutique Ten Over Six. The day this shop starts selling online will be a glorious day, as well as troublesome — really troublesome, just look at the designer roster. Check out Kristen Lee’s A/W ’08 collection, available at a slew of great stores and online at Oak(very limited stock left). Click here for a store near you.
