Alaina Lynne

Eeeeek! I can honestly never contain my excitement when I start writing a blog post with new to us (and you on the blog) retailers. I have too many thoughts and remarks that start to swirl through my head that I can’t possibly get out quick enough. So without further ado please meet Alaina Lynne Boutique! We stumbled upon the Instagram page and were quickly drawn to the classic trendy pieces.

We started interacting on Instagram simply because we liked the goods. Not too long after the lovely owner, Jennifer, shot us a sweet note to let us know that she was part of the tall girl tribe standing at 6’. We always love when people send simple notes like this because it instantly connects us. It helps initiates a more personal “internet friendship”.  We learned that the boutique is online but they do pop up shops around Maryland, DC, and Virginia. So if you are in those areas, you should feel lucky! If you’re wondering about the name; it’s a combination of both Jennifer’s middle name as well as her sisters. We also love a good sister duo. It also helps that like us, Jennifer can appreciate sarcasm. Are we long-distance best friends? Seems like we are well on our way.

One of their main goals is to provide women with a versatile wardrobe. Ummm could this align more with our goal for y’all? We always like to reiterate that we don’t just post things to post them. We obviously post often about certain big-box retailers but with smaller boutiques and niche companies, we do our homework. We ask questions like what are your values, goals, why are you doing what you do? Do you think us posting your items aligns with all of the said questions? If any of the answers are no or we don’t think the items will benefit you; you will straight up never see them. No questions asked. Unless it’s a tall fail. We share those solely for that reason.

Let’s get back to it. Alaina Lynne is definitely not strictly for taller women. However, since we are blessed that the owner is tall herself there are so many tall friendly items! And if you are worried about which items these are, send a DM to their Instagram page and she will happily guide you through fit, sizing recommendations, Etc. To be honest, it was like having a personal shopper. Jennifer picked our pieces and recommended which size to do in each based on our typical sizes and everything fits like a dream.

The first item that we are featuring is this Knot Your Average Button Up which we are certain you NEED. This top is going to be on the heavy rotation this summer. Not only is the style as cute as can be, but the color combo is also perfect for summer. This top paired so nicely with both white denim and regular denim. I for one cannot wait to pair it with shorts too!

From the first time I slipped into this top to try it on to the many times I have worn it already, I cannot get over the comfort. It is light, breathes easy, and hangs exactly as I want it. Both Jenilee and I always struggle with finding tops that are truly comfortable in the shoulders but this one more than fits the bill. We recommend this top for most frames. If you have broader shoulders like us: girl, what are you waiting for?

I loved being able to share this company with all of you today and hope you enjoy giving their site or Instagram a look. Let us know what you think and what items are your favorites! Stay tuned for a look into one of our other favorite Alaina Lynne items early next week. Not sure which item we like more!

Happy Friday Eve Fam! Stop back tomorrow for a bit more on London! Here is the link to the striped top!
