BUCKLE UP FOR FASHION!
Lou's Kustoms Vintage accessories for men and women are the latest offspring of Mary Lou's Vintage Couture. Owner and designer Janet Brown takes her passion for collecting vintage apparel on the road and hosts vintage trunk shows throughout Southern California.
And along the way her collection of designer jewelry and accessories grew from a hobby into a full-fledged design studio. Now she transforms vintage jewelry into stylish belts for women and men, called Lou's Kustoms.
Stop By Patina Boutique Thursday from 6 to 9:30 p.m. for a Mary Lou's Vintage Couture apparel and trunk show. Enjoy a fabulous evening of wine, truffles and shopping. Janet Brown offers a selection of fine vintage fashions from Vivienne Westwood, I Magnin, Valentino, Halston, Yves Saint Laurent, Dior, Whiting and Davis hand bags and showcases her Kustom Vintage collection of women’s and men’s belts and women’s headbands.
Brown decorates belt buckles with vintage jewels, enamel flowers, and turns them into one of-a-kind creations. And for men's belts she incorporates vintage lighters, money clips, pocket watches, and coins. The belts come with a wide variety of top quality leather belts.
In addition, Brown recently expanded her collection to include headbands, bracelets and rings for women. Accessories retail between $150 - $250.
