FABreview: Wakefield and York ~ City Chic In "The "Burbs"

With the holidays rapidly approaching, it's time to start thinking about making our lists and checking them twice, and when it comes to shopping, especially this time of year, I prefer to stay local. The nice thing about shopping the small boutiques is that there are fewer crowds, more parking, and you can take your time shopping in a more peaceful and personable environment without having to feel rushed.

A few weeks ago, I was invited to attend the grand opening party of Wakefield and York, located in beautiful Upper Montclair, N.J. and judging by the large turn out for the event, they won't be going anywhere too soon! Martha Fava and Michelle Gettings are the dynamic duo behind the already successful contemporary women's boutique, and together, they have combined their strong backgrounds in fashion and interior design, as well as their business savvy, to bring something a little different to "the "burbs." They have buying "on trend" pieces, down to a science, and believe me, they know what they are doing, because by the end of the evening, their racks were half full, and we all left feeling like rock stars! Isn't that how you should feel after making a great purchase?

The staff at W&Y will always give you their honest opinion because they care about how you look in their clothes, and they get just as excited as you do when you find something you love! It's like having your own personal stylist, and I guarantee that your purchases from W&Y will always be your favorite go-to's. So, Whether it's a gift for someone special, a new wardrobe, or a unique piece to add to your already existing fabulous collection, W&Y has got you covered for all of your holiday needs.(literally).

On a personal note: I have known Michelle Gettings since our days working at Ethan Allen. When Michelle decides to do something. She just does it! She continues to inspire me, and has been one of the biggest encouragers of Fabreview. I wish Michelle and Martha much success with their new venture. xo

Happy Holiday Shopping!
