We have the urge to splurge, but not much time, and face it-- we’re not exactly flush with cash these days.

But a few choice retailers—one is new, the other improved, and one to watch—are worth the investment.  

The boutique Jolie Couture--  so new the website isn’t ready--  held its grand opening this weekend in West Orange (459 Pleasant Valley Way, 973-325-0015).  Clothier Tom Romano has a nice selection of career, sportswear, and elegant evening wear.

It’s great for moms of the Bar/Bat Mitzvah, weddings and just in time for the fall cocktail circuit. There are also custom clothing services available—at reasonable rates.  Mention NJ My Way and you’ll get 10% off.

Our friends at Entiise Lingerie (www.entiiselingerie.com) in Millburn have a new home right by the movie theatre.

They’re sharing the space with  DeVenir Beauty (www.devenirbeauty.com ) so you splurge on elegant, flirty lingerie and beauty products all at once. Mention us and you’ll get 30% off on lingerie, and 10% on any of the cosmetics in the store.

Also worth the visit is Robin’s Closet (www.robinscloset.com) in Boonton, where Robin (full disclosure, she’s our neighbor) has the area’s best selection of designer jeans and tops.  It’s one of those cozy boutiques where fashionable moms and their teenage daughters can find great clothes under one roof.

Robin is giving 10% off to our readers as well.
