If you want to build a standout wardrobe, then resale boutiques should be your first stop. The ones that standout in the crowd are the stores that carry the best of the best, keeping their customers happy and returning. Entre Nous is one of those upscale gems.

Located in the heart of boutique shopping near the Beverly Center, this small boutique packs a serious punch with real deals on real couture women’s apparel. Gucci, Versace, Marni, Fendi, Dolce & Gabbana, Diane Von Furstenburg, Richard Tyler, Missoni, Badgley Mischka, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Stella McCartney, Marc Jacobs and more grace the racks and shelving here.

Well organized, good mirrors, plenty of rear area parking, a nice dressing area along with cheerful help make shopping here a pleasure. But it’s the product that is the cause of most shopping fun.

The first thing that sent me into fits was a large Marc Jacob leather handbag. In near mint condition and a sumptuous shade of teal, at $695 it was a deal. Original retail was over $1300. A classic vintage Gucci shoulder bag in mint condition was $365.

Below the Mark Jacob bag were more down to earth deals… a Joie silk polka dot blouse was $59 instead of $120, a Chaiken silky tank top was $62 instead of $274 and a charming Izaak blouse for $75 instead of $155.

Have a black tie or red carpet event in your future? Gowns and dresses were plentiful here. A slinky, silk chiffon Richard Tyler dress would normally go for $1800 or more here it’s $765. How about a beaded Badgly Mischka strappy full length gown at $525 instead of $1600. I liked an unusual Herve Leger knit dress for $495 instead of $1100. Or for a cocktail party, you could pair up a stunning Angelo Mozzillo silk embellished blouse at $235 instead of $585 with a pair of Diane Von Furstenberg tuxedo trousers at $79 instead of the original $340.

Statement making designer jackets and coats are also here. Standouts include a Stella McCartney heavy tailored white linen jacket at $385 instead of the original $849 and an eyelet runway Jacket by Marc Jacobs at $129 instead of $300.

Many items are new with tags, come from stylists and are never worn or worn only once, giving this store a standout selection of mint condition designer clothing. Entre Nous doesn’t schedule regular sales events, but has continual markdowns throughout the store making this a place to pop into every month.

Build your wardrobe with real style and some real couture items for a lot less.
