It's true...over the years, I've become known for my shoes.  I do love a good shoe - and relate all too
well to Carrie Bradshaw!  Below is where I purchase my shoes.

OLD FASHION SHOPPING:
Below are some of my favorite local (and not so local) places to shop.

4Her / 4Him
1237 East University Drive • Granger, Indiana 46530
574.277.4500
Tue - Sat 10am - 7pm, Sun 1- 5pm, Closed Monday
www.

I love this boutique situated in Granger, Indiana.  Not only does this posh shop tout great brands,
but they also have an exceptional collection of special event dresses.  4Her's staff has a grown-up
attitude toward fashion, and is always willing to let shoppers shop - or help by offering advice and
suggestions.  

It's hard to find something unique and different for men, and 4Him is the answer.  Great brands, skin
care and even a shoe or 2 are all things you can find a 4Him.

Both shops offer personal shopping services (by appointment), and individual wardrobe consultation
(by appointment).  

Verandah
1245 East University Drive • Granger, Indiana 46530
574.277.SHOE
http://www.verandahshoes.com/

Another one of my favorite local shops is Verandah - a shoe shop.  Really, I don't need to say much
more (a SHOE shop!).  This shoe boutique reminds me of the years when Hansall's in Elkhart was
THE place to buy up-scale, top brand shoes.  When Hansall's went out of business, there was
literally nowhere for binge shoe shopping in Michiana.  Until now.  

Verandah displays both men's and lady's shoes as well as a selection of handbags, watches and
jewelry.  Great brands, and great sales...check out Verandah.  Even if you don't live in Michiana -
give them a call - they can special order just about anything you are looking for!

FLOURISH BOUTIQUE AND GALLERY
A GREAT new boutique in South Bend, IN.  Online shopping too!  NOW OPEN!

POODLES BOUTIQUE
1600 E Bristol St
Elkhart, IN 46514
(574) 266-6900
A cute boutique on the North side of Elkhart.  Great brands, fun finds...stop in!

LAURA LEE'S
121 S Michigan St • South Bend, IN 46601
574.232.2100
Laura Lee's is located in the heart of downtown South Bend.  I love this boutique because I love
Lucky jeans.  Aside from the actual Lucky store in Chicago - LL's has a great  selection - and maybe
better because of the grown-up girly atmosphere.  Laura Lee's also carries Brighton and some
other fun brands.  A great place to check out when you're downtown!

Lily's Boutique
A new boutique in Heritage Square.  ***more details to follow***

ANTHROPOLOGIE
www.anthropologie.com
Anthropologie is one of my favorite places to shop.  If you look in my closet - everything I have came
from 5 places...the designer I work for, 4Her, Flourish, Mark Shale or Anthropologie.  I love the
eclectic styles, the different things.  One of my favorite things I found at this great store is a chicken
sweater...yes, a chicken sweater - and it is ADORABLE!  If you stop into the Chicago - Rush Street
location, tell Kathy F.  I said Hello!

MARK SHALE
www.markshale.com
Mark Shale is good for men's and women's clothing.  They have great classics - if you're looking for
something special, chances are Mark Shale has it!  

Nordstrom's
www.Nordstrom.com
It's true, I am a Nordstrom junkie.  Every time I travel, I see if there is a Nordstrom close by.  I
am serious!  I get online, and check locations when I am visiting a new city.  Nothing beats
the brands, service and quality you can find at Nordstrom's.
