The pros of boutique shopping:
1. You get a piece that no one else has.
2. You have an interesting story to tell about your purchase.
3. Ideally, you have great customer service.
The potential cons of boutique shopping:
1. You walk out with one item, if any, because you simply can't afford the prices.
2. You feel judged when you walk in the door.
Enter Vixen Day Spa & Boutique in Magnolia: Your first and likely new favorite boutique (and day spa!). Owner Courean Napolitano opened the doors in 2002. An esthetician by trade, she started the business as a day spa and eventually expanded so that her loyal clientele could shop before a manicure, relaxing all the while.
As a personal stylist, it's common for clients to tell me that they love the idea of boutique shopping, but struggle with execution. Might I suggest Vixen as your introduction to boutiques?
