Perhaps you already have a friend who never ceases to surprise you with some new chic find or a designer whose name you haven't filed into memory just yet. While we cherish and certainly relish their knowledge, who couldn't use a new in-the-know pal? Our latest insider comes by way of recently launched e-commerce site Feminin Rascal.

Stocked with European treasures, Feminin Rascal is the smart, new middleman between hot, overseas designers and our very own mailboxes. Some of the most lust-worthy labels include Aperlai, an Italian shoe brand whose stylish kicks look more like works of art, and Thierry Lasry, whose "futuristic vintage" sunnies are beautiful statement specs. No need to start searching these names on Google — Feminin Rascal founder Estee Lieberman has created a site that not only sells but provides the 411 on the luxury Euro designers you'll want in your closet … and at your desk (we're talking Keith Haring colored pencils from French label Ligne Blanche).

While a cyber stroll through the new e-commerce site may provide a small virtual tour of European style makers, we also got the scoop on a few in-person hot spots worth checking out if you're fortunate enough to find yourself flying trans-Atlantic. Leiberman, the woman in the know and French transplant in NYC, shared with us her favorite Parisan must-sees for any summer traveler. Considering the beyond-impressive lineup on her site thus far, we're definitely taking her advice to heart — or, at least, filing it away for our next Parisian adventure in the unforeseeable, but certainly not impossible, future.

Jot down the Lieberman-approved travel picks on the next page.
