Luna Rosa Home

Came in Luna Rosa to get some inspiration for apartment decorating– it could not have been a better decision.
The owners were nothing short of warm and welcoming. My best friend and I had such a great time looking through all of the beautiful items that they carry. We ended up picking up some gifts for Mother’s Day coming up. When we were checking out, they even let us take extra moon stickers for our MacBooks!
Luna Rosa is absolutely amazing and if you’re in the area I highly recommend you stop by, even if it’s just to look around.

I could not love this store more. The biggest obstacle in decorating my New York apartment after scoring the most perfect rug ever at ABC for just 600 has been slip cover for the ancient peed on, puked on, smoked on Crate and Barrel chair and ottoman, and lamps.
Who knew lamps were such a trial? Crate and Barrel floor lamps, well-​made but dull, start at 400. CB2 lamps are meh. I did find one for 60 I love but the shade is too white and it’s not a typical cone, so I’m just going to return. I just haven’t been able to find lamps.
I went online to Lamps Plus and there were some nice floor lamps (pharmacy style) in the 200 range but nothing that really grabbed me.
Everything at Luna Rose is tremendous. If I owned a house upstate, I would deck the entire place out in stuff from this very special Hoboken store. The owner has exquisite taste and she prices stuff very fairly, under Manhattan pricing and comparable websites.
It’s also really nice to shop local. So I found a table lamp for 75 that looks as though a decorator chose it to go with the gray/​cream silk and wool rug from ABC basement in Chelsea. It even goes with the old cheap Jenifer love seat with cream and gray strip. That was here before the old tenant, bought by the landlord and while it’s not transcendent, it works.
Toward the back of the charming store was a floor lamp. It is a work of art. A friend was buying me a TV for my birthday but 5 years I haven’t had TV or premium cable in this place as a part-​time, non-​rent paying visitor. I can live without a TV for another 6 months or whatever. I said I would prefer a lamp and my friend said okay.
I will pick it up in Hoboken on Tuesday, when my friend (a Rockette from 1966 – 70) works. I love the café a few doors down and they had a coconut bread pudding I almost brought home. But by the time I was packed and balanced to head back on the ferry with my lamp and two BEAUTIFUL sea foam patterned plush bath towels for just 29 each, I didn’t want to stop.
For 440, you don’t get anything special at Crate and Barrel in the way of lighting. This is my dream lamp and I am so grateful!
Most women who come into the store are furnishing luxurious homes in Jersey (Bergen and Essex, I imagine) and you get to see some serious wedding rings. I love diamonds and drooled over one set-​up a mid-​30s wife wore.
You truly want everything in the store: candles, candleholders, pillows, and various high-​end tchotchkes for tables, counters, and bathrooms. The pillows truly take your breath away.

I love this place! Talk about supporting local businesses that you love — this is the one.
We, here in Hoboken, still don’t have a lot of great shops. Luna is the exception. It’s charming, handy and the owner and staff win you over with their infectious excitement and inspired taste. The pillows and candles are so great.
A brilliant place in upper Hoboken to hang or treat yourself to something you’ll love.
