For those of you that follow along with the boutique and don’t particularly know me, I wanted to share a little background and the meaning behind the name Ivy Lee.

When I was 19 years old, my life changed forever. One minute I was eating dinner with this special man right here, who I was lucky enough to call dad, and the next minute he was suddenly taken from me. My dad was my everything. I wasn’t sure how I would go on without him. Still some days it’s hard to grasp that he’s no longer here with us on earth.

I’ve always wanted to make him proud. I cried the morning of Ivy Lee’s launch because all I wanted was a text or call from him of him telling me how proud he was of me. But I know he is. I know he is SO proud.

Ivy Lee is named after my precious daddy that I lost too soon. Ivy means eternal life and Lee is his middle name. I know he is smiling down on me in heaven and I know he will be with me every step of the way during this journey of mine. I am so blessed to have had the dad that I did and now I am so blessed to have my store named after the best man I’ve ever known in my life.

If you’ve lost someone and you’re still grieving, know that you are NEVER alone. I want this to be somewhere we can have fun and share fashion but also somewhere that we can come to be there for other ladies that need lifted up during the hard times! 

Now let me help you look and feel amazing for any and all occasions! Cheers girls, let's get to shopping!
