A Real Boutique for Real Women!

by sewrocks at Citysearch

I am moving to New York this April and I really wanted to get to know my neighboorhood. I figured I would get online and find some cool boutiques to go to. The problem is that I am a size 14 and most of these "cool" boutiques don' carry my size or if they do I feel like 5 pounds of sugar in a one pound bag! Ha! I googled a couple of shops online and found Lee Lee's.

On New Years Eve, in the cold, ice and snow, I found one of the best boutiques I have EVER shopped in! First of all, you receive immediate personal attention and care. The clothes are beautiful and and fit perfect. I have to say that the first dress that I tried on I have NEVER felt more beautiful than I did at that moment. I was in Lisa's shop for about 3 hours mainly because I couldn't stop trying on clothes, which NEVER happens! I love this shop and you can be sure that when I move to New York, Lisa, and her awesome staff, will be tired of seeing me!

• Pros: Great Service, Beautiful Clothes, Lots of options to choose from
• Cons: A little bit pricey but well worth it!

5 stars chicas

Lee Lee's Valise is not just a boutique.. its an experience. The sales team are absolutely fabulous. I wanted an engagement party dress, and I found a show stopping gown featured in the GRAMMY"S. I absolutely love this store, I am from Long Island. Thus, the commute is extremely far. But, the drive is worth it if you want style , fashion, elegance, and figure friendly gowns. I am a size 14 and sometimes have trouble finding dresses but the search ended in Brooklyn. I give this place 5 stars ladies.

• Cons: distance from long island/queens

Finally!!! A Designer Boutique in NYC for the Curvy Woman!

I love this shop! The service is excellent and personalized. The selection is thoughtful and plentiful. I bought several pieces here and adore every one. Some of their things are expensive, but beautifully tailored by designers working specifically to flatter larger sizes (check out Olivia Harper and Anna Scholz). You'll find gorgeous fabrics like linen and silk that you don't often see in plus-size stores. It is such a cute, hip place that while I was there several skinny women walked in, realized their mistake after a few minutes, and walked out. I don't feel bad for them, as they have lots of choices. Now we do, too! LOVE Lee Lee's!!!!!!

• Pros: Warm attentive service, beautiful selection, charming atmoshpere
• Cons: Not in my immediate neighborhood!
