The Goods
I've been doing market work (shopping for a living) for nearly five years. And, admittedly, there are times when I get a bit lazy and repeatedly use the same source for one project (and often many projects in a row). But when that source consistently has a fabulous assortment of stylish and affordable products, it's hard to deny the return visits.
If you've yet to visit Z Gallerie, I suggest you take a look at their store locator immediately. With 54 stores in 18 states, Z Gallerie has approximately 1,800 square feet of style for every room in your home. Large-scale furniture, lighting, tabletop, artwork, bedding – the list goes on. The best part? You know how when you visit other chain home stores (Think: Pottery Barn, IKEA and Crate & Barrel), everything looks like it came from that store? That's never the case here. Whether your style is Asian-modern, boho-chic or leans toward the classic transitional, you'll find items to fit your niche.
The Secret
Although Z Gallerie has a sort-of big-box vibe (huge store full of affordable products), it remains a privately owned company. Started in 1979 by brothers-sister team Joe Zeiden, Carole Malfatti and Mike Zeiden, Z Gallerie has grown from a small poster shop (the trio would frame posters in their parents' garage at night) to a full-fledged (yet still family-run) home goods franchise that remains dedicated to providing us with attainable style. Joe, Carole and Mike, my bank account thanks you.
Things to Know
Sadly, a Z Gallerie store can't be found in every state, but every state can have a shopping heyday via their online store, which also happens to keep an updated page of their recently marked down items for extra-budget-friendly shopping. Sure, you'll incur some minimal shipping charges -- but it's a small price to pay for what will undoubtedly become your go-to source for incredibly chic, affordable home decor.
Inside tip for you Southern Californians: Z Gallerie's outlet store is located in Gardena and has a new assortment of fabulous products coming in daily. That's right: daily. Think of it as a design addict's personal dealer.
