344 Grand Street
b/t Havemeyer Street and Marcy Avenue.
Williamsburg's Grand Street is beginning to live up to its namesake. Partially because the latest addition is the first Christopher Deane store. The New York-based label (designed by fashion duo Christopher Crawford and Angela Deane) which was previously sold in stores like Steven Alan, can now be found under one roof.
Granted, the space is intimate. (As in, teeny tiny). Still, you can find the best of the collection, which currently features jewel-colored cocktail dresses, silk zebra-print blouses, and electric blue fall coats.
For a limited time, the boutique is giving away canvas totes that read I (heart) ____, allowing the wearer to customize the bag.
After visiting the Grand Street outpost, we think there are some obvious answers to fill in the blank.
