See...

We hate to say we told you so, but -- well -- we did! We disclosed insider information on our heavenly little secret, Breathe Inn, last week; and just yesterday Daily Candy discovered it and announced its goodness to all of Gotham -- now they're nearly booked up for the summer, and to get a room you'll have to fight tooth and nail, like UES women clawing at Manolo's at the bi-annual Bergdorf shoe sale!

You heard it here first -- or at least you ought to have. Come here daily for tastings of all things chic and delicious. Les Coquettes forever ... because our daily bon-bons are timeless...

That said, here's what Daily Candy didn't share with you:

We're still privy to the really good stuff. For the optimal Breathe Inn experience, attend the blissful retreat detailed above. Vite-vite -- Depechez-vous!

Ommm.....xx

a sweet reminder...

Our darling Coquettes fanatics,

It's time again for our monthly dramatics!

At our first party -- at your behest -- we coyly revealed our glittering chests,
Which surprisingly inspired all the ladies to suddenly bear their - umm - "best"s.
The second was a striking black & white ball,
Replete with gowns and bling-bling and all.
The third, of course, was a proverbial charm --
To have been anything less would've been cause for alarm.

So -- never to disappoint or be outdone --
This Thursday will be a night of unprecedented FUN!
We've got a magical guest by the name of KiD Laptop,
Who shall prove at the decks he's the cream of the crop!!


xx,
Kiki & Lala

Breathe Inn... Beauty Secret #1

Everyone asks us, "Mais, Kiki et Lala, qu'est-ce que c'est votre secret?" when marveling at the profusion of rest and relaxation in our bones.  And contrary to popular belief, the answer is not all the cake we nibble on or the grapes fed to us by our paramours du jour -- it's not even the preservatives of all the champagne we bathe in.

No, Les Coquettes are modern old-fashioned gals, who believe in the profound benefits of a more spiritual well-being.  And like l'amour, we believe in all things natural and aesthetically uplifting.

So, if you must know, the answer to your question is Breathe Inn -- our home away from home.

It's where we go for r&r and to detox from our indulgences de ville.  Quite possibly, it's the most beautiful, restful and inspirational place, outside of our native Gay Pareeeee -- and the proprietors are much lovelier and friendlier than our long-faced compatriots.  (Les americains are so delightfully charmantes!) 

Breathe Inn is -- how you say? -- a B&B; but a very chic, soignee one with modern design sensibilities that are harmonious to its natural environment.  It's a revamped Victorian house, set back on several unspoiled acres upstate -- but no doilies here!  Furnished with John Robshaw sheets, Moroccan lanterns, a projector, a pool, a hammock (Lala's personal fave) and Banksy pieces and such, it's a Victorian home with panache.  

Who would expect less from OG coquette, intn'l downtown style-setter/taste-maker, interior designer extraodinaire, Breathe Inn creator and most importantly, mother & friend, Camella Ehlke -- and natural chef hubby, Marlon Aitcheson?  Pas nous!

Les Coquettes with special guest

It's that much anticipated time, dear friends...
Kiki & Lala are at it again.

Come see why they're calling this party "NYC's best kept secret."

With their part burlesque, part what-the-heck act, Les Coquettes is where it's at. Same time, same place...this time with special guest, KiD Laptop!
