two elle - a lifestyle boutique for women, men, and home

Unless you’ve left Tweedle Dum in charge of your social agenda this spring, you’ve probably heard about a little movie Tim Burton’s been working on. As if Two Elle isn’t Alice-heavy enough, we’ll be prepping the store for all things Wonderland in honor of the Friday movie release. Perhaps there will be special promotions, perhaps a flash of your Cheshire grin (or your ticket stub) will get you a special treat, or perhaps you’ll just indulge us as we revel in what was once a literary construction but is now a bona fide 2L icon.

And just a warning: if you’re planning to follow that White Rabbit, we suggest you follow us as well @twoellerabbits.

It’s never too late….

Well, I’ve stretched this birthday for as long as I possibly can, but I think it’s finally time to erase the board and welcome the new age. It was a lovely, festive birthday week. I got so many visits and messages from across the country, gifts both heartfelt and thoughtful, a dinner at PM with my 2L bunnies, and an excuse to wear neon green chucks throughout. Thanks to all of you who made my birthday special and who made me want to keep it going & going!

And the sting of birthday being over isn’t nearly as bad given that we have a store full of new pretty things to distract me!

RACHEL’S BIRTHDAY EDITION:

THE NEON GREEN CHUCK

In 2008, it was Marc Jacobs clown tees. In 2009, it was a flashing pink ring courtesy of Kristin. And in 2010, it’s the neon green Chuck Taylor hi-top. Yes, I’m someone who likes to celebrate my birthday with a fashion statement. But here’s the thing: I certainly don’t like to celebrate alone, and anyone who knows me knows that I’m a much better gift-giver than gift-receiver. So, MY birthday gift to YOU is $5 off these neon green Chucks, both for men and women, throughout my entire birthday weekend! It’s birthday present enough for me to spend my day with my little birthday bunnies, Becca, Ricky, & Stephen, but this way you can join us!

And although I love spending my birthday each year with my own little 2L family, I can’t help but miss the Chucks on the feet of my family spread across the country, whether it’s Adam’s enamel blue, Mikey’s white hi-tops (I promise I’ll put them in the mail!), Danny’s entire Spring 2010 line-up (again, the mail thing), my mom’s buttercup yellow, or my dad’s Varvatos slip-ons. Today, I’m supposed to celebrate the day I was brought into this world, but these birthdays wouldn’t be worth celebrating if it weren’t for the family, both 2L & blood, that celebrates with me.

Happy Birthday to us all!

Friends! Monday night combines 2 things we love: an opportunity to help others & our very own Ricky Braddy!

Here’s the plan:

Ricky will be performing Monday night, February 8, as a part of “Idols for Haiti.” The show is at 8 PM at 3rd & Lindsley and features our dear Ricky along with other American Idol alums Brent Keith, Felicia Barton, Anne Marie Boskovich, and Alex Wagner-Trugman. As if seeing Ricky and the other Idols live isn’t enough, they’ll also have a Haiti donation center, and all money collected will go to “Buckets of Hope for Haiti.” And that’s where we all come in! We will be donating 10% of our proceeds from today and Monday at Ricky’s show that night. So, if ever you were thinking of dropping by, today or Monday would be the day to do it, because not only will you walk out with a fabulous new treat, but you’ll also know that you’re doing a little something good for the world.

So, join us at the store, join us at the show, and join us in doing our part to help!

It’s world AIDS day, and we’re joining the fight! TODAY ONLY anything red in the store will be 15% off! So, yes, that includes the giant Tarina Tarantino red heart necklace, all that Steven Alan red plaid, and the WeSC MJ-inspired red jacket. And of course, the Converse Product Red grey chucks are 15% off, too! We’ll be tweeting in red all day, so make sure to follow us: @twoellerabbits and @twoellefrank.

Help us paint the town red & raise awareness!
