I've been to Torrid, Lane Bryant et al. But a boutique? Nope! Because there are NONE in NYC! (Ok, so there is like half of one, a store that sells muumuus and big jewlery somewhere on the upper west side, but that doesn't count!).<br /><br />The store I am talking about is called Lee Lee's Valise and is run by the fabulous Lisa Dolan, a big girl with a big dream. She gutted a busted laundromat and carved out a gorgeous boutique full of the best plus size fashions. She is stocking a number of incredible lines, including <a href="http://www.svobodastyle.com">Svoboda</a>, <a href="http:www.abbyz.com">Abby Z</a>, <a href="http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=65657&u=119052&amp;amp;amp;m=293&urllink=&amp;afftrack=">Kiyonna</a>, <a href="http://www.igigi.com">Igigi</a>, <a href="http://www.fashionoverdose.com">Fashion Overdose</a>, <a href="http://www.bandlu.com">B&Lu</a>, <a href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-1602296-10368910?sid=blog">Size Appeal</a>, <a href="www.cennev.com">C.enne.V</a> and lots more!!!<br /><br />She is also selling plus size thongs from Hanky Panky, beautiful jewelry, purses, large size bras, and course, more than anything - she is selling a feeling - of having the right and privledge to shop in a store that sells your size!<br /><br />Here are a few of the items I saw in the store:<br /><a href="http://www.shareasale.com/m-pr.cfm?merchantID=293&amp;userID=119052&productID=456330228" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.beautypluspower.com/img/kiyonna-shortlace.jpg" align="left" border="0" /></a><a href="http://www.anrdoezrs.net/click-1602296-10368910"><img src="http://www.beautypluspower.com/img/sizeappeal-butterfly.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.fashionoverdose.com/setproduct.asp?ssetid=17"><img src="http://www.beautypluspower.com/img/fo-2.jpg" align="left" /></a> <a href="http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?u=119052&b=539&amp;m=293&afftrack=&amp;urllink=www%2Ekiyonna%2Ecom%2FMerchant2%2Fmerchant%2Emvc%3FScreen%3DPROD%26Store%5FCode%3DKK2003%26Product%5FCode%3D25060201%26sblid%3D25060201%26Category%5FCode%3DTops"><img src="http://www.beautypluspower.com/img/kiyonna-colorblockt.jpg" /></a><br /><br />Top Row:<br />(L)- Kiyonna Lace Top<br />(R)- Size Appeal Butterfly Top<br /><br />Bottom Row:<br />(L) - Fashion Overdoze Halter<br />(R)- Kiyonna Colorblock Tee<br /><br />Visit Lee Lee's Valise:<br />368 Court Street (at the corner of President St)<br />Take the F or G train to Carroll Street Station and walk 1 block<br /> <br />Call 718-246-LEES for more info<br /><br />I might just see you there!Lisafashionistahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09003971342905726455noreply@blogger.com
