This week brought a couple great trips to two very awesome boutiques in my area, The Paper Doll and Jade. Both are located in downtown Rockford, MI and offer an eclectic selection of high end and affordable clothing. The Paper Doll is situated on the Rogue River in Rockford in a gorgeous stone and brick building, the atmosphere in this boutique is friendly, the staff are knowledgeable and always around to help but their not overwhelming. The store can be a bit intimidating as it's quite large and offers an array of different styles and price ranges, but if you have time to look around at everything I can all but guarantee that you will find some treasures. This is the kind of boutique that attracts ladies who want to make a bold statement with their outfits, and I promise this boutique delivers. While I do enjoy some standard everyday pieces of clothing that I believe every woman should have, I also like to find pieces that other people will not have, I like being able to make a statement and have my own individual style. Jade is the second boutique I visited this week and it's just around the corner from The Paper Doll. Jade is a smaller but more high end boutique also situated on the Rogue River. The building is older but full of charm and that charm carries in to the inside of Jade. The atmosphere in Jade feels more high end then at The Paper Doll, it carries expensive brands and the choices are a bit more limited. Jade is my first choice when looking for great shoes and great jeans. It's also a great place to look for one of a kind accessories and purses. I will caution that a simple trip to this boutique could cost you upwards of $100 and while you might not get a lot for your money, you will be getting quality clothing, great service, and one of a kind pieces. I have put links to both boutiques below. If you are ever in Rockford you won't be disappointed if you stop in to The Paper Doll or Jade.
