WNTW 2010 Fall Season Premiere

We just finished filming the Fall Premiere Episode of next season’s TLC’s “What Not to Wear” with Stacy and Clinton. The crew did a great job with their subject who was none other than Mindy Cohn who I am sure you will remember played Natalie on the “Fact’s of Life.”

It was a great shoot and Mindy will be wearing our Lisa Wrap dress in one of our new fall fabrics as well as a Marisa top in the Pink Paintbrush! Mindy really fell in love with our clothes and picked several other items. You will have to watch the show to see her in her reveal outfits! So be sure to watch the season premiere this Fall to see your favorite boutique featured once again on ‘What Not to Wear!”

The Fourth of July has come and gone and we are getting ready for a great summer. It’s going to a hot time in summer in the city and Lee Lee’s Valise would like to help you look great at the parties or barbeques and when you are just going to work and want to beat the heat.

Look Cool this Summer with the new trends from Lee Lee's Valise

We have a great collection of light weight sundresses such as our Tie-dye maxi’s and our Smocked Top sundress which goes together perfectly with our Fabulous Franny like a cool drink on a hot day. We have a new collection of your favorite Lola Maxi Dresses in fun vibrant fabrics such as jade, periwinkle, 70’s Swirl and our new favorite the Silver Cloud. Put it together with one of great collection of Sun Hat’s and you are ready for cocktails at well, the drop of a hat!

For those of you who still have to work before you get a chance to go on vacation we have a great new collection of skirts. Our new Paula Pencil Skirt will be a staple of your wardrobe when you match it up with our Brianna or Marisa tops that come in a great variety of solids and prints. Mix and match them to spice up your summer wardrobe and have a different look when you add one of exclusive leather belts.

When you finally get ready for your vacation we have a great new selection of bathing suits, tankini’s and beach cover-ups that can take from the pool to the barbeque with effortless ease.

Why should Mrs. Howell be the only one who looks great at the Luau? If you are going on a “Three Hour Cruise” or just working for the weekend you want to look cool. And feel cool in every sense of the word. So come visit us at Lee Lee’s and spruce up your summer wardrobe to beat the heat and look great all at the same time.

Smocked Sundress with Our Fabulous Franny in Fuschia

Even though summer doesn’t technically start until June 21st we all know that Memorial Day weekend really kicks off the summer.  This year we have so many great things happening that will take you into the summer fun.

 We have restocked your favorite Lola Maxi dress in several fun new fabrics. Our Basic Black is always a favorite but check out Our New “Silver Cloud” Lola Maxi Dress with black, grey and white when you want to try something different. For those you who requested a solid color other than black we created two new fun colors in our Jade and Periwinkle. And for those of you who like something different we have our favorite purple paintbrush and 70’s Swirl.

Continuing in the Maxi dress mode we have several fun new maxi’s in blue tiedye and green tiedye.  Great for that summer barbeque or to wear to a beach wedding when that old friend in college decides to get married on the Fourth of July and you have nothing to wear.

We have some great beach cover-ups that will be great for the beach which can take you from the beach sand to cocktails at night. Perfect for vacations and weekend trips especially when you add one of our fun summer hats.

 ”Miriam a nudist who has just come out of a toxic relationship….. when she does decide to wear clothes they’re either baggy or shapeless…. Can Miriam find a hip, modern style that will help her to be taken seriously?”

She also purchased the Annie Svoboda Jean and the Eddy cords! Her jeans looked great after tailoring to fit her petite shape.      Svoboda has new jeans in!    Check them out now!

As Seen on What not to Wear

Episode 14: Courtney
“Courtney has dropped a whopping 170 pounds! Unfortunately, her wardrobe has become as extreme as her weight loss and she struggles to recognize herself for the beauty that she is. Can Stacy and Clinton help Courtney embrace her new body?”

She did love the Lace Boudoir Dress but didn’t think it fit in with the rules Stacy and Clinton gave her….they totally disagreed and wished she got it.

Things she purchased at Lee Lee’s Valise:

You saw her wearing  The Lauren in Rust Dot at the end of the show when she was modeling different outfits. She was also in the Lisa Wrap Dress in the West Side Story Print. That dress was paired with the crocodile leather belt and looked fantastic!

Check out the Lauren in some other prints: The Geometric Print   The Dragon Print   The Lauren in Black
