Your Girl Hit Me Up...

Was so fun for Faire L'amour to style and help produce this video for Toot and his wife. Very fun set, lasted 2 days of filming at many different locations, some shots even at our own boutique. Has a very catchy tune and hook :)

New Queen of Hip Hop !!!

Nicki is Not only been officially declared the Queen of Hip Hop by Rolling Stone Magazine, but it is safe to say this young lady is everywhere you look.  She is on every track with every kind of artist imaginable.  She is also not scared to push the envelope with her cutting edge style & music.  She is a huge inspiration to Faire L'amour, and she is a big part of the Harajuku movement.  It never gets boring to look at her and see what she will wear next. ! We want to give her nothing but Love!! We Love her fashionista ways.  Go Nicki!! We love you Barbz ! ;)

Faire L'amour makes music with upcycled BCBG hooded jacket

Photo of a brand new hooded jacket upcycled with treble clef detail on both arms. Intricate embellishments around the hood and authentic vintage broach on the front. Would be perfect for the right artist who is not scared to make a statement in this one of a kind piece!

Cristallo Couture at the Grammy's...

Cristallo Couture Creates Custom 2 Piece for Lazonate Franklin at the Grammy's 

Here is a quick shot from her phone, Lazonate Franklin & Fiance pose for a quick snap shot.  Lazonate is wearing the 2 piece tuxedo suit put together for her specifically.  We were not able to meet with her for a proper fitting but once we received her measurements we constructed something that she was proud to wear.  Who is Lazonate Franklin you may ask??  Only a beautiful genius who helped write songs you may have heard of or listen to on the radio such as "Telephone" By Lady Gaga and Beyonce to Willow Smith's breaking single "Whip My Hair"  She works with many amazing artists all over the world and Faire L'amour feels blessed to be able to work with her and continue our Loyalty to one another.  This is a situational example of what services we have to offer. We can make anything, for anyone, for any occasion no matter where they are..  More importantly then that, it is the quality in our work, love put into every step of the process...As you can see she is beaming on her special day :)

Lady Gaga in town for the Holidays...

Gaga has Omaha Gaga

People would expect Lady Gaga to stick out like a sore thumb in a place like Omaha, NE.   The facts that are swirling range from, they had no clue it was even her,- to she had at least 2 body guards with her at different points from the groups of people crowding around her at different venues.  Word is that she was spotted in Benson, The neighborhood home of One Love boutique.  Though she was spotted in dozen of locations through the Omaha area, including ; One Tree Yoga, Absolute Fresh, Goodnights Pizza and The Waiting Room, all of our favorites :) So she is being guided by a native to the area obviously.  Who is this mysterious person that brings Gaga to the heart of the nation over the holidays? Who and what else but a Love? ! Thats right, Lady Gaga's boyfriend is from Nebraska!

Mastering The Art of American Motorcycles

In our behind the scenes tab, there are some candid photos of the outfit being made. This outfit on the cover of the calendar was challenging to make, for many reasons...but this is the final product and we are pretty proud of it. The model Farrah Abraham designed it and Crystal brought it to life. The name of the motorcycle Farrah is with is called "The Wolf" hence her in the super hero wolf outfit :) The outfit is made with Faux Fur. The entire calendar wardrobe was made or styled by Faire L'amour designers Crystal & Tamara. If you would like more information on how to purchase one please visit links below .

The Path Of Least Resistance...

The path of least resistance describes the physical or metaphorical pathway that provides the least resistance to forward motion by a given object or entity, among a set of alternative paths. The concept is often used to describe why an object or entity takes a given path.

At Faire L'amour we love be inspired from everything...when making clothes we may be inspired by something we see, feel, hear, smell, or touch...the only way to enjoy these things is to live in the now. That's why when we create we our in our best space, focused on the task and living in the now...Its quite meditative actually. When you live in the now the best things happen, because we are able to fully pay attention to our environment. So our pieces always reflect how we absorb our surroundings, by doing so we are living in the now. If we are stuck living in the past or future how can you create with love??? Living in the now is bliss.

So we are moving forward on our path of least resistance we hope you do the same :)
