“Barbara Bui’s python shoe is a must- have for spring because of the snake- skin texture. Python is going to be huge this year and it goes with everything. This shoe can definitely make an outfit.”
~ Emily Dees Boulden, owner, Swank Boutique in Atlanta and Birmingham, AL

"The design that I am in love with, that I want to sleep with every night, is Diane von Furstenberg’s Alexandria laser-cut suede bootie with an open toe. I’ve been lusting after this shoe since we saw it at market last fall—it’s freaking fabulous. It’s definitely for that woman who’s comfortable in her style, who knows her look and marches to her own beat. But it’s still very understandable. It’s just that perfect shoe that keeps you light and airy for summer but is not a sandal."
~ Dan Mauney, owner, Step by Sloan, 
Charlotte, NC

“I’m really excited about Rachel Comey’s Ipswich Brogue Wedge in silver leather on a wooden wedge heel. It’s a perfect spring shoe for me because it’s so interesting: Somehow it’s all at once futuristic, menswear-ish and old-school New England.”
~ Kristen Lee, creative director/head buyer, TenOverSix, Los Angeles

SWANK ATLANTA

Swank Atlanta was just recently written about on 
Check it out!!
Many Changes have been made to the outside of SWANK since this picture!!! I will post progress pictures soon!!! :)


shops around lenox becoming shoppable — swank opening soon



After Blue Genes, a high-end boutique located at the Shops Around Lenox in Buckhead, was robbed on multiple occasions (about seven in all, but who’s counting?), the owners were left with no choice but to hike up their pants and walk away through the rubble. With such a large mercantile space available at what many deem as a prime Buckhead location, much has and is becoming of the once empty space; obviously for retailers who are somehow immune to the blue jean bandits.
Most recently, Bill Hallman opened a new location in the outlet portion of the Blue Genes Boutique. Two months ago, Fab’rik opened adjacent to Bill Hallman (left of) making their fourth Atlanta location very prominent. As for the space left of Fab’rik, plans for an ostentatious boutique, Swank. From Birmingham Alabama, this high end boutique will be opening their first Atlanta location in February taking what was once the Men’s Department of the Blue Genes Boutique.
Offering the latest and greatest fashions for women, Swank is currently online at swankbirmingham.blogspot.com  For their Atlanta location and available fashions, it is illusive that an updated website (a DOT com) would be in the making.
As for all of the other available space at the Shops Around Lenox, here’s to hoping this flashy Mom and Pop attracts others (and scares away the thugs).
