On a lazy Sunday afternoon, after having brunch in the French Quarter, I decided to take a little stroll around the worn streets and explore some new shops. One of my favorite finds was Hemline, a great store for trendy outfits with a range of different price points.
With their first store opening in the Quarter 16 years ago, Brigitte & Luciano Holthausen have since established 10 other locations in the South/Midwest, including Nashville and Houston. In addition they offer convenient online shopping.
The Chartres store offers a wide array of great labels, ranging from Free People and French Connection to Cynthia Steffe and DDF. Hemline also has a great selection of designer denim like Miss Me and Seven For All Mankind, as well as shoes, belts, and jewelry.
What I find to be the best part about Hemline is the variance in price points. As one associate put it, “There’s something for everybody.” I was able to find attractive, unique items that could be bought either with a blank check or a budget.
Taking leisurely Sunday strolls in the Quarter definitely paid off! My next few blogs will feature shops set in the heart of the city. Come back next time to discover: LUSH.
