"Thirty-four-year-old Van de la Plante looks every bit the gentleman," notes the
Los Angeles Times. "Sporting
a beige linen resort suit, a green Cuban guayabera cigar shirt and Cole
Haan huarache sandals, De la Plante fits in well as owner of
Gentlemen's Breakfast, a new boutique in Laguna Beach that sells antique
eyeglasses, sunglasses and accessories. The small shop,
splattered in bitter chocolate and beige tones, is decorated with manly
finds and furnishings. Antique crystal decanters sit on an old desk,
filled with Scotch and ready for the pour. A vintage bourbon flask hides
a 1909 candlestick phone. It's reserved for those who spend enough
money, according to De la Plante, who declined to say just how much is
enough. A feather pen with ink jar caps off that rich, old-world look."
