A Fashion Boutique with a California Girl V Two friends turn their love of fashion into a business WORDS BY KAREN MEURER PHOTOGRAPHY BY TATYANA SEMENOVA
It’s the classic story. Friends from high school reconnect and forge a deep friendship again, and in the case of Courtney Antoniuk and Erin Mack, a business. On a vacation in California together, Antoniuk and Mack started talking about where they were in life and what they wanted to do next. The conversation turned to their love of fashion and Mack’s excellent online shopping skills and before the vacation was over they had a plan and a business name — PaperDoll Clothing. Both were done with the days of spending $400 on a pair of jeans — they wanted to source clothing lines for women who wanted to look put together but not break the bank. Mack reached out to clothing lines in Los Angeles and they came on board. PaperDoll now carries lines from California, New York, London UK, and Australia. Erin Mack and Courtney Antoniuk
