We’re Styling Our Apartments After This Soho Store
Julia Robbs

Remember when, as a teenager, you’d fantasize about opening a store with your best friend? You’d dream about all the cool things you’d sell, what it would look like, who would shop there, and how great it would be to go to work every day and hang with your best buddy?

Now imagine that becoming reality, except your best friend actually shares your same first and last name, you’re married to two brothers, and between the two of you, you have eight (!!!) gorgeous children. Oh, and the store has two Manhattan locations and carries perfect Americana-inspired staples. Such is life for Veronica Swanson Beard and Veronica Miele Beard—the sisters-in-law, pals, and business partners behind Veronica Beard.

Their line of perfect everyday jackets (with genius interchangeable dickeys), easy, sexy dresses, and slim trousers has a new home in their SoHo location at 78 Greene Street, which officially opens tomorrow. To celebrate, we got a tour of the new digs straight from the Veronicas themselves.

“You feel great when you look great. When you feel like you’re appropriately dressed and you can enter somewhere and feel good, it’s everything, especially in this lifestyle. We both had babies after we started this business, so it’s not like the world stops when you’re having a baby. I think it helped us figure out that you can still build businesses, do your thing, be a mom or be a pregnant mom and still look good and feel good.” —VMB
