Gypsy Doll Boutique partners with International Bipolar Foundation for fundraising event

On June 6, the newest boutique in La Jolla will hold a trunk show showcasing their jewelry, evening clutches and clothing. The Gypsy Doll Boutique, owned by Sabah Parker, opened its doors to the public just a few weeks ago, but her jewelry is not new to those flocking to her store. Sabah formerly owned a wholesale shop on Fay Street, but with the urging of her clients, opened two retail shops across from each other in the courtyard on Prospect St. across from George’s.

Bijou Amani, the jewelry label, is a mainstay in any girl’s jewelry box. Ask Julia Roberts, Jennifer Lopez, Oprah and the Desperate Housewives, all of whom own this line; the pieces are fashion forward, chic, and very affordable (prices for earrings start as low as $49) — the perfect adornment whether you are going out on the town, traveling afar, or having lunch with girl friends.

Shoppers will have an opportunity to see the entire wholesale line (not usually offered at the boutique), as well as evening clutches and fashionable clothing. Those who want to stop by before going to dinner can indulge in a glass of wine and sample hors d’oeuvres catered by La Dolce Vita Ristorante next door. For the first 20 clients to spend a minimum of $500, there will be a drawing to receive $1,000 shopping spree at the store. If Sabah weren’t already generous enough, she will also be donating 20 percent back from sales to the International Bipolar Foundation.

Guests do need to register for this shopping extravaganza and will be rewarded with a free parking pass and discount coupons for area restaurants. Please contact Ashley at areitzin@InternationalBipolarFoundation.org or call 858-764-2496
