lula is a newer boutique right across the way from lucia. the same aesthetic that lucy has for clothes and accessories, carrie, the owner of lula, seems to have for home furnishings and other personal items. i've only made a few purchases there, but i really like going into this store. i'm absolutely in love with the slippers i recently bought there as well as the two vintage aprons i bought (one for myself, one for a birthday gift for a friend). the only other item i bought at this store was a cute checkbook holder, impractical maybe, but pretty and made by the owner's mom. apparently more designs will come out for the holiday season. lula also carries totes designed by jessa blades. i have one that i bought from jessa directly, but it's great that she now has a carrier in saratoga. lula has a ton of beautiful furniture that i don't need in my furnished apartment, but others should check it out. also the place always smells good and i think the candles that create the lovely scent are probably also for sale. the prices range: the small things are pretty inexpensive, the furniture is on the pricier side, but it is furniture afterall. read more
