Lucy’s Boutique in Landrum adds option to local apparel market

Summer style in our area received a boost from the arrival of Lucy’s Boutique earlier this year.
Mother and daughter duo Sonya and Lindsay Dobbins launched the new clothing boutique in Landrum March 31.
“This is something I’ve always wanted to do,” said Lindsay, who graduated about a year ago from Chapman High School. “We’ve been really excited by the response.”
Sonya Dobbins said they wanted the clothing store to be accessible to a wide range of customers – young or mature – and not shy anyone away with prices.
“People have taken to us well and I think it’s because our price point is attractive,” Sonya said. “I’ve been delighted by how well it’s done.”
The average item in the shop costs about $40. There are items above and below that range as well, depending on what you are looking to buy.
Styles inside lean toward youthful and preppy looks, but Sonya and Lindsay said customers of varying age ranges and tastes can find something to meet their needs.
“We try not to have the same stuff as other boutiques,” Lindsay said. “Our biggest goal was to provide a place for someone to come in really quick and find an outfit or dress for a wedding or weekend event.”
The store’s primary lines include dresses, shoes, jeans, handbags and a variety of accessories. Lucy’s also carries a small collection of men’s clothing from Southern Point Co. and hopes to add Coast apparel in the near future.
Sonya Dobbins said the work hard to keep up a Facebook and twitter presence to let customers know when new items come into the store. You can follow them on Facebook or email them at boutiquelucys@aol.com for more information.
