Designer Erin Fetherston

California-native-turned-Paris-expat-turned-Manhattan-resident Erin Fetherston has had a busy year. Her Target collection hit (and subsequently flew off the shelves) stores, she and her artistic auteur fiancé Hedi Ferjani relocated to lower Manhattan, and, right this second, she’s finishing up a very impressive fall 2008 collection which will be unveiled tomorrow at the Bryant Park tents.

While others may query her on her inspiration and favorite fairytales, Fetherston can talk the real New York talk; specifically real estate, restaurants, and where a woman of impeccable good taste gets her shopping done.

Here, the talented Miss Fetherston (whose tres chic Paris abode has been featured in many a glossy magazine) points out her top 5 favorite home décor shops:

1. ABC Home; shop with Matt Falcone
2. Degournay for wallpaper
3. Erin Martin; she has a store in St. Helena, C.A. and her style is really cool
4. Maurice Villency in NYC
5. Bleu Nature for eco-decor
