Erin Schaumburg Eros Home and Clothing
Creativity often runs in the blood—and Erin Schaumburg is no exception. She learned to appreciate beauty through the décor of her childhood home, which was designed by her mother, owner of Chatta Box Boutique. Her mother’s impeccable eye for beauty eventually inspired Erin’s own unique style, which has served customers of Eros Home and Clothing for twenty years through design services and a stunning retail space. Erin offers full service interior design—ranging from a single room re-design to vacation homes. When working with a client, she makes the process fun and stress free with her comfortable demeanor and positive attitude. Through in-home consultations, Erin has the chance to get to know her clients and to observe their families—ultimately creating a space that reflects their lifestyle and ignites their soul. As a mother of four active boys, she understands the importance of durable home décor and the blessing of a family-focused space they will never want to leave. Follow Eros on Facebook and Instagram, which serve as portfolios for Erin’s interior design projects, and are frequently updated with new arrivals to the store. Although their social media pages are inspiring, there’s nothing like visiting the impressive 3,200-squarefoot retail space and spending time with Erin and her welcoming staff. Customers are treated to an interior design candy store for the eye that is truly a reflection of Erin’s creative mind. Contact Erin personally at eschaumburg@me.com to schedule a consultation. Eros Home and Clothing is located at 3906 Hwy. 22 in Mandeville. 727-0034. 16

Stephanie Pagliarulo and Jessica Gilmore Emma’s Shoes and Accessories
Whether your calendar says weekend getaway or cocktail soirée, Stephanie Pagliarulo and Jessica Gilmore are sure to have the signature piece you’re searching for. Stephanie opened Emma’s Shoes and Accessories in August 2012 after noticing a lack of boutiques offering cuttingedge choices of upscale shoes and accessories on the northshore. With lines like Marc by Marc Jacobs, Tory Burch, Rag and Bone, Kate Spade, L.K. Bennett and Vince, Emma’s offers fashion-forward trends at price points that fit every budget. From fashionable booties to flats to elegant heels, the merchandise—including jewelry and handbags—is unique. To stay on the cusp of the ever-changing fashion scene, Stephanie and Jessica travel to market in New York City and California several times a year. With Stephanie’s keen eye for detail and a wealth of savvy business knowledge in her handbag, Emma’s was burgeoning with so much success that a second location opened in August 2014 on Metairie Road in Metairie. Stephanie and Jessica offer style advice to all who enter. “We love helping customers achieve the look they want,” she says. “If you see a look in a magazine, come in and we can help you style that look for your body type.”
Emma’s Shoes and Accessories is located at 3904 Hwy. 22 in Mandeville, 985-778-2200; and at 155 Metairie Rd. Ste. A in Metairie, 504-407-0668. emmasshoes.com. Shop Emma’s online store, and keep up with new arrivals on Instagram and Facebook.
