There's been a dress for every fairy tale ending...

Once upon a time, a beautiful maiden had a [insert your last minute event here] to attend. While she had a closet full of beautiful dresses, she didn’t quite want to wear any of them. The beautiful maiden scurried about the city searching for the perfect piece. Finally, she stumbled upon a hidden palace… sunk below the ground in an old brick building, painted cream and pink and black inside. In awe, but still stressing, she hunted about, until one sweet sales girl found her the perfect dress in which to go out…

The rest, as they say, is history… but history tends to repeat itself. The reality is: we’ve all been there. We’ve gotten desperate, we’ve worried we won’t find anything. We’ve struggled for the perfect fit, color or cut. Fortunately, over the past couple of years the hangers at Crush have come to our rescue. While our current personal favorites include a pink Tracy Reese, a sequined Alice + Olivia and a lace under-layer Madison Marcus, we tend to say: “What is cuter than this?” each time that a new piece arrives.

No doubt then, you’ve established your own Crush favorites over time, which is why we’d like to invite you to share those with us. It’s a little project I’ve been brainstorming since May that we shall henceforth call, “The Crush Hall of Fame.” Our Hall of Fame will appear on the blog, and also in-store in the form of a scrapbook. We have a lot of books, it’s likely your husbands and boyfriends who hang out on the couch have read them all, but none that share our history, and you… and the dresses you’ve worn, are that history.

Sure, I could pull the pictures from the online store or scan the past two-and-a-half years of purchase orders, but what would be the fun in that? We cherish the memories we’ve made in the store, dressing you, dressing ourselves, and swapping stories about our lives. We’d like you to be able to do the same…

Please e-mail your Hall of Fame pictures, why you loved the dress, and what you wore it to, to Laura@shopcrushboutique.com or Rebecca@shopcrushboutique.com so that we may compile them to go down in history as the most beloved Crush pieces of all time!

Thanks girls!
