Caroline Giraud-Sukornyk will not be happy unless you fall in love. Not with her, we will quickly add, but with one/some of the treasures that she has curated in La Vie en Blanc her remarkable interiors store that queerguru has just stumbled over in Fort Lauderdale. She’s very firm with any customers who are in two minds about whether to make a purchase of a particular item, and simply tells them not to part with their money and go home. If they are still thinking about it longingly the next day, or the day after that, then they should come back and take it home. It is important, she insists, that they are happy ….. and only falling in love with the piece, will do that.
She has a very good point, but the problem for queerguru is that her new large store is packed with way too many temptations from her 10 seater couch, to her Indian daybeds right down to a glass pencil holder. We fell in love far too often in just the first hour in the store.
queerguru talked to Caroline about her very inspired French taste and her passion for accessible objects for La Vie en Blanc, which was voted one of the Top 50 Decor Stores in America’. We sat down with her just two months after she had opened this new 6000 sq. ft, emporium after rapidly outgrowing her other two smaller stores.
