About Mal and Val
They say “it takes a village” – and they’re right! La Vie Cherie was born out of the reality that life is best when it is lived together. The truth is that we need each other – even in the fashion world. How much have all of our lives been changed by “What Not To Wear” and similar shows on fashion? How many of us need a valued friend to say honestly, shake her head, and declare “hmm… not so much” if we make bad fashion decisions? How many of us rely on our true friends to tell us which one of the thousands of mascaras on the market is the best one?

In the end, we trust a friend.

You know who you are and what you’re like. But no matter what kind of person you are, you will find something at The Village. If you aren’t born with fashion sense, you can come to The Village to find others who will give all sorts of tips for discovering the best in you. Or if you are one of those admirable women that can throw on a paper sack and look like a million, The Village is poised to hear your success.

Either way, we all can come together at The Village – we all belong here. We can learn from each other and have fun in the process!

La Vie Cherie is French for “the cherished life” or “the darling life,” and the name means a lot to Mal and Val. The concept was birthed during a time that Mal was recovering from West Nile Virus and Val had just lost her daughter to adrenal cancer. Mal, age 21, and Val, age 51, found common ground in wanting to cherish every moment of this wonderful life that can seem so short.

At La Vie Cherie, we want to quickly help you find products that are, simply put, the best, as well as give you top fashion tips and the most current trends. Your time is precious, and we’ll treat it as such, because we want you to have time for other things that are the most important part of life – relationships.

Welcome to La Vie Cherie – come be a part of The Village as it grows and expands in the days ahead!
