Holiday Shopping at COLCHA

By Erin Ferucci

As a Lifestyle Designer one of the many things I am called upon to do, especially by my Celebrity clients, is Holiday Gift Shopping. Frequently clients will ask me to find that exclusive, tasteful gift that is perfect for a manager, agent or studio executive. I love this kind of assignment because I know it will take me to the door of one of my favorite shops: COLCA.
COLCHA is a quaint neighborhood shop in Venice owned by Sue Cowie. It is filled with lovely, unique gift items that are both exquisite and surprisingly affordable.
