BOUTIQUES ON THE WEST END



Bellus on Main
181 Main Street

Holiday Party Season is here! This flattering yet forgiving black dress by Joseph Ribkoff with raglan bell sleeves produces insta-glam. The elasticized neckline can be worn on or off the shoulder, for more or less drama. A subtle keyhole is cut out in front, and the bottom hem is finished with guipure-style lace.

Where is Bellus? Next door to Luxe Optique.




Luxe Optique

183 Main Street
New frames at Luxe Optique do not disappoint! Just when you thought you'd seen it all in the shapes of frames - well, you haven't seen these yet. Sabine-Be, a brand handmade in France, is known for very wild, funky, different, unique and affordable frames. They're popular in NYC, and Luxe Optique is the only shop carrying them upstate.

Where is Luxe Optique? Across Cliff Street from Beacon Bread Company.

PARKING HINT: Park behind 1 East Main by the Hudson Valley Brewery and use the back walkway to come up to Main!


Style Storehouse

This long, burnout kimono by On the Road is in Style Storehouse right now, and is another easy glam trick to top an outfit. Great to throw over jeans and a tee to bring a little fun to lounging at home or running errands.

SPOTLIGHT SPONSOR HIGHLIGHTS

Rhinebeck Bank

Beer brewing and craft beer enthusiasts will love this interview with the co-founders of Mill House Brewing Company. Learn about how they started in their basement after purchasing a beer brewing kit, got hooked on the hobby, made too much beer, shared it with others, and the rest is history. At the time of this video in 2016, they had a 20-barrel production facility and employed 47 people at Mill House Brewing Company. When they got new equipment to increase their production, Rhinebeck Bank financed it.
Watch the video here, and tour the brewery!

One of the best ways to make sure this continues is through a donation to BeaconArts, which you can make right here online.
