My absolute favorite tidbit about Monica Vinader is the brand’s in-house piercing services. That’s right — you can get pierced at their brick-and-mortar in NYC’s Soho, or at their shop at the Nordstrom South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa, CA — and, at the time of writing there are plenty of immediate openings available on their website (unlike, say, the always-booked Studs or other boutique piercing studios). At Monica Vinader, you can get up to three ear piercings per appointment, anywhere on the lobe or helix, and each piercing is only $25, plus the cost of the earring you get pierced with.
