Midwestern Girls Rock!

I have to let you all know about two new fabulous boutiques for us larger gals.

The first is located in my own state but up in the great north woods in Hibbing Minnesota.  Yes, that Hibbing.  Childhood home of Mr. Bob Dylan.  Gateway to the great Minnesota Iron Range (See movie  North Country).  Now, Hibbing is also home to the fabulous clothing boutique, Moxie!  In an environment where the biggest fashion statement is wearing a PINK fleece jacket, Moxie is bringing a stylish new world to the plus size gals of "up north"! 

I had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Suzanne, at a women's event at which I performed earlier this spring.  She presented a fashion show featuring clothing by XCVI, Alice Berry and Rebel Green (featured at the Fred Segal boutique in Hollywood.)  She is unabashedly passionate about putting stylish clothing into the hands of women who don't have as many choices as those of us with Nordstrom and Bloomingdales located in our back yards and for that I salute her.  I will make a point to stop in whenever I head up that way to visit my parents and I encourage you all to check out her website at:  http://www.moxieshoppe.com/.

Also just located, an adorable new boutique in Milwaukee, WI called Boutique Larrieux.  From their website, Boutique Larrieux is dedicated to providing high quality fashion tailored specifically for the plus size woman.  Lines they carry include Kiyonna, Brian Meester, Monif C., and eShakti.  Another great Midwestern choice for curvy, chic clothing!!  A road trip could be in the future for this woman.  http://boutiquelarrieux.com/index.php

  1. Hi Jodie - Thanks for including Boutique Larrieux in your most recent post! I'm a curvy gal myself and am always on the hunt for new places to visit. And regarding that road trip, YOU MUST! :-D Please do give me a shout when you're in my neck of the woods. - Lydia, Owner, Boutique Larrieux, info@boutiquelarrieux.com
