Lamar Park Blog

South Texas' Most Unique Lifestyle Center

Everyone knows Market is one of the premier boutiques in Corpus, but do you know how Morgane got in to the fashion business?  Or what her favorite trend of all time is?  It’s ok, neither did I, but read on to see what I found out from this gorgeous fashionista!

Why Lamar Park?
Lamar Park Shopping Center understands great shopping. I love how everyone works hard to keep The Center looking beautiful and to fill it with the best shops Corpus has to offer.

Are you originally from Corpus?
Yep, I am originally from Corpus. I lived in Houston for five years and Los Angeles for two years before I decided to move back home.

How did you get in to the fashion business?
I have always loved fashion.  As early as 4 I was putting outfits together and could distinguish between what matched and what did not.  In college I majored in Art and developed a great creative eye – I knew fashion was my calling.  When I moved back to Corpus I opened a small boutique inside an Art Gallery and after six months it was doing well, so a good friend and I decided to get our own space.  We opened Market in March 2006 and the rest is history!

Who are your top 3 style icons?
Lucia Moreira Salles, Edie Sedgwick, Coco Chanel

Who rocks your favorite celebrity style?
I love people who take fashion risks – playing it safe with fashion is so boring. Fashion is an art and I appreciate people who treat it as such.  Ashley Olsen, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Chloe Sevigny are a few celebs who think outside the box!

What is the best fashion advice you’ve ever received or heard?

Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening. -Coco Chanel

Your favorite trend of all time?
Bohemian Hippie Chic

What was your very own fashion faux pas?
Wearing clothes that aren’t flattering for my body type but loving them or the style so much I have to do it anyway  :) (me too, sister, me too.)

The worst fashion faux pas you’ve ever witnessed?
Oh there is so many I have seen lately! I don’t want to be rude. LOL.

What are your 3 favorite pieces at Market right now?
Oh, there are so many I love right now! Here are three of my faves!
1. The Wendy Kaitlen dress with multi colored skirt
2. The white Cover tunic with black trim
3. The navy Zoa tunic with Gypsy Collection accessories

Describe the perfect summer BBQ / Pool / Party outfit:
This black strapless dress by Indah would be great to wear to an outdoor Party! It’s lightweight, cute, and oh so comfortable.
Another great summer party look is our yellow strapless Wendy Kaitlen dress with the Gerard Yosca blue bib necklace and matching bracelet.
I am also in love with the long ruffle skirts by Indah. They are perfect for an outdoor party or to throw on over your bikini for a summer pool party.
