Shop One of Manhattan’s Coolest Stores Online

When we debuted our New York Closets series with Fivestory owner Claire Distenfeld, the comments were overwhelmingly kind (which is why we love you) and included such responses as:

“You’re cool and pretty and hella stylish and I want to be your friend.” — Quinn Halman

“I love that she raises up her shoes to offspring status.” — Misha Lobo

“I need that white buttons skirt pronto!” — Daphne Blunt

and

“Where did she get that backpack?” – Elaheh

Well now, regardless of where you live (Fivestory is a Manhattan boutique, you see), you can be Claire’s friend, copy her shoes, find her skirts and more readily hunt down niche backpacks because Fivestory now has e-commerce, and Claire does the buying.

This is a big deal if you’re looking for a clutch that says “chill pill.” Or if you’re allergic to shellfish but like to wear them. Or if you, like Quinn, want to smell like Claire.

It’s “just accessories” for now, which means no skirts (come visit NY, you guys!) but when there are Laurence Dacade boots that look like Bambi for pre-sale, who cares about e-clothes.

Besides, has Amélie Pichard taught you nothing? Shoes are the main attraction.

Shop Fivestory NY online here, and follow it on Instagram. As for Claire? Check out her New York Closet, check out her Insta, and while we’re at it, reminisce about her friend Rosie Assoulin’s SS15 fashion week presentation.
