The Forum Carlsbad, an outdoor lifestyle shopping center managed by Northwood Retail, invites the community to celebrate the opening of Van De Vort on Friday.

Known for its elevated style and contemporary fashion, the boutique brings Andrea Van De Vort’s distinct, L.A.-inspired perspective to North County.

Founded in 2013 by Van De Vort, the boutique quickly gained a devoted following for its curated collection of stylish pieces. After relocating to Del Mar, she saw an opportunity to bring cutting-edge trends to her new community.

Van De Vort has since expanded to include an e-commerce platform and a second brick-and-mortar location at Carmel Valley’s One Paseo.

“We’re thrilled to welcome Van De Vort to The Forum Carlsbad,” said Trish Pruitt, vice president of marketing for Northwood Retail. “Andrea’s brand aligns perfectly with our commitment to offering the best in style, quality, and community-centered shopping experiences. Her unique approach to fashion will bring something truly special to North County.”

To celebrate its new location, the store invites guests to a grand opening from 4-8 p.m. Friday where guests may meet Andrea Van De Vort in person. For every $100 spent, patrons will receive a $20 gift card and a raffle ticket for a chance to win a $1,000 gift card. The event will feature a live DJ and cocktails by Snake Oil Cocktails.

“Opening at The Forum Carlsbad feels like a natural next step in sharing our style perspective with a broader community,” Van De Vort said. “We’re here to help women embrace their personal style and we’re excited to connect with our new Carlsbad customers.”

Van De Vort is located at 1923 Calle Barcelona, Suite 145 in Carlsbad.
