My passion for fashion began early when I worked at a popular boutique in Miami, Florida. After moving to the Chicago area I accepted a job at Neiman-Marcus. There I dabbled in a lot of areas ranging from managing to sales for 10 years… I started a job as a buyer and merchandiser at an Chicago suburban boutique for 9 more years. Traveling is another passion of mine.

My husband Harry is in the music business which takes him on the road quite often to some pretty exotic locations with mega entertainers. Fortunately I have had the opportunity to tag along, often to explore unique boutiques. On one of these many trips, I had an idea to open a store combining, fashion and jewelry, and the idea of Hunny Boutique was then born. I decided that I liked the downtown Chicago “Vibe” so I opened the store in the heart of shopping paradise at 2027 North Damen, Chicago’s Buck Town was the perfect location for my yearning.

Now when I travel, I am wearing the jewelry I sell. Because of the compliments and overwhelming requests, I have decided to open an online store, to share my visions as well as what I sell out of the storefront.

Hunny Boutique is not your average shopping experience. You will see jewelry, accessories, and clothing from designers such as Sir Alistair Rai, Tressie Handbags, JeeVice sunglasses, and a very eclectic array of high end jewelry are featured there. Chicago’s very own jewelry designer Lana, Lulu Frost, Virgin Saints & Angels, Tracy Matthews, Love Heals, Catherine Michiels and more, bring their fabulous pieces to Hunny Boutique. On the clothing side of the store, you will be able to find the very popular J Brand jeans, RYU dresses, Fluxes Tee’s and Matt Bernson Shoes among many others.

The neighborhood is fantastic, sort of like the Soho of Chicago, and has welcomed our arrival resoundingly. There is really no other place down there where you can pick from such a varied selection of unique and special, high end jewelry, and accessories as well a selection of casual everyday clothing, like you can under the one roof at Hunny Boutique.

When I am not at the store or traveling with Harry I am at home with family and friends hanging out with yet another passion of mine, my 2 dogs Angus and Olive ... Who knows, maybe there will be a unique dog Boutique one day.
