La Jolie MLN - Elmhurst’s Dream Closet -Testimonial
I’ve been asked by more than a few people in my life if I’d rather spend my money on things or experiences. At La Jolie MLN, I don’t have to choose because I get both.
Walking into La Jolie is like walking into what I have always pictured my “dream closet” to look like. La Jolie is the closet of that friend whom everyone looks to for fashion advice and whom everyone wants to borrow clothes from.
The first time I visited the boutique, Daisy, the owner, as well as her staff were getting ready for a Botox event, where Botox and skin care services were offered to customers shopping in the store. Daisy also provided wine, cookies and candy to those participating in the event while they shopped! La Jolie regularly hosts events such as this one. Some events they’ve hosted in the past are themed parties which the boutique promotes on social media. Examples of themes they’ve had in the past are Kentucky Derby and Ugly Sweater around the holidays. These in-store events are just one way that La Jolie leaves a lasting impression on its customers.
This family-owned boutique in Elmhurst, IL radiates charm while promoting fashion that aims to make women feel like their best and most empowered selves. I was impressed that the pieces sold at La Jolie are so consistent with today’s trends, such as ruffles, one-shoulder bodysuits, and puff-sleeved dresses. The boutique was illuminated with fabric in vibrant pastels which are perfect for summer! But La Jolie was not short of basic tanks in neutrals, as well as flare jeans and blazers for a capsule wardrobe. The store also had a variety of choices of sandals and wedges in nude, black and white to pair with any neutral or pastel item in the store!
At the back of the boutique, there is a room sectioned off specifically for formal wear. This is also where the fitting rooms are, accompanied by two adorable chairs where guests can sit comfortably while they wait. This special room has a variety of formal wear to choose from on their racks, such as prom dresses, wedding guest dresses, and even bridesmaid dresses. La Jolie has already started seeing high school customers come in to shop for homecoming dresses for the fall, and it’s only July! Guests can also reserve the store after hours for private groups to shop for formal wear to make their customers’ experience at the boutique more personalized.
My first shopping experience at La Jolie MLN was extremely captivating and enjoyable. Though this was my first time visiting La Jolie, it won’t be my last!
