Elle boutiques was opened 30 years ago by my mom. She always had an eye for the pretty stuff ... fashion. Like most women I know they are just compulsive shoppers. Its an impulse from the hunter/gathering of early humans. The men go out ... whatever is in view ... dinner! The boutique has an international taste. Clothing comes from Milan on her seasonal trips to the fashion shows. Attention to detail like a Hong Kong tailor shop. She is an experienced seamstress and can help you fix hems that don't fit or add an extra flare to the outfit. There are kawaii styled shirts / sweaters to Fellini pinstriped out suits. A specialty boutique in a corner of Monterey Park with the regular people.
