Live a life of Luxury

Welcome to The Bravern: The Northwest’s newest luxury destination. Anchored by Neiman Marcus and home to boutiques such as Louis Vuitton, Jimmy Choo, Ferragamo, and Piazza Sempione, The Bravern is one of the only designer destinations around.

Do note: come prepared with an umbrella and you’re own coffee: the complex is completely open air (not exactly NW friendly) and there isn’t a coffee stand to be found.

Mario’s – a staple for designer apparel in Seattle. Come on in and make yourself comfortable. I’ve said this before, but make sure to find your way to April – she’ll take the best care of you!

Believe it or not, Nordstrom carries a wealth of designer labels such as Chanel, Christian Louboutin, Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci, Manolo Blahnik, Prada, and YSL. Check out the Downtown or the Bellevue location for the largest in selections.

New York. Chicago. Miami. Bellevue.

The David Barton franchise has arrived to the northwest, and now it’s finally possible to “look better naked.”

Touting one of the best views and menus in the city, Canlis on Queen Anne is known to be one of the finest establishments in the city. Dinner dress codes in the northwest tend to be fairly lax, but Canlis is one place where a jackets are required.

Be ready to spend some serious dough on some seriously delicious food: Canlis sends you the bill through the mail days after your dining experience.

Sky City – what used to be a kitschy, touristy restaurant in the sky has been transformed into a swanky dining room in the sky. Grab a seat, and within one hour of your meal you’ll have done a full revolution around the needle having experienced a 360 degree view of Seattle.

Have no fear: Sky City isn’t focused primarily on the view… the food is also delish.

Make your way to Metropolitan Grill for the best steak and Martini this city has ever seen. If the Metropolitan Grill sounds like a place you’d like to visit, be sure to make your reservations in advance and come prepared with some serious dinero, as the Met Grill is truly one of the priciest restaurants in town.

Feeling a little strapped for cash? Try the Grill’s Happy Hour during the week between 3 and 6pm… but get there as fast as possible, as this restaurant fills up faster than you can say “Happy Hour.”

Make your way toward Woodinville for a little lap of luxury. This little town on the outskirts of the eastside is home to many fantastic restaurants and wineries; one being the Herbfarm.

Once there, have a seat in a somewhat ethereal setting and prepare to enjoy your 9 course meal prepared with some of the freshest and local ingredients. Obviously you’ll want to come hungry, as you’ll be spending the longer part of your evening enjoying delicious foods such as caviar, lamb, truffled cheese, and many other items the chef’s seem fit.

Do keep in mind, the Herbfarm revolves it’s menu regularly with “themes” yet also change their menus on a day to day basis depending on availability of the best ingredients.

Cristalla Condominiums is one of the only luxury condos in the city (for now). Located in the heart of downtown, each condo is home to fantastic finishes and absolutely stunning views. Of course the building is host to beautiful luxuries such as a gym, rooftop deck, guests lounge, parking, and concierge. Be prepared to pay a pretty penny, this please is only for the seriously chic.

The Four Seasons is yet another luxurious place to call home. With not only a top rate hotel (if maybe you just need to spend a few nights on the town) but also a host to private residences, the Four Seasons is quickly becoming the place to be.
