Blue Layne Boutique Makes the Finals in Global Boutique Awards

Clemmons, NC - From over 4,000 boutiques worldwide, Blue Layne Boutique, an online e-commerce boutique, of the Clemmons/Davie County area has won the hearts of both local and global shoppers being voted into the final round of the 2017 Boutique Awards in the state of North Carolina as a contender for Online Boutique of the Year.

The Boutique Awards is the only global recognition event for independent boutique retail owners in the fashion industry, hosted by The Boutique Hub. The Awards recognize and celebrate the best boutiques across all 50 States in the US, Canada, Australia and the United Kingdom, in the categories of Storefront Boutique of the Year, Online Boutique of the Year, Children’s Boutique of the Year, Mobile Boutique of the Year, and State or Country Overall Boutique of the Year. 
 
Already, the awards have garnered over 300,000 votes from shoppers and consumers who love boutique shopping worldwide, and voting wraps up on August 21st, 2017 on www.theboutiqueawards.com.

The awards celebrates retail at a unique time, when many are dubbing a current retail apocalypse, however industry trends show a strong upswing in the boutique retail market.  The Boutique Hub, the global voice and Hub of the Boutique Fashion Industry, cites one of the strongest boutique markets in history with new boutiques opening daily across the globe, and established boutiques posting some of the strongest sales to date. The Shop Small movement is certainly alive and well as big box retail dwindles.


Blue Layne Boutique opened on 2013 by Samantha Colbert. Carrying modern, versatile trendy fashion, catering to women of all ages.  At Blue Layne, our motto is “It’s more than an outfit…”. We want everyone who shops with us to be able to feel confident, gorgeous, and learn how to wear the clothing best for their lifestyle.

“Being recognized by this awards event is incredible. We hope to spread our motto across the nation that our clothing is “more than an outfit”. We don’t just sell clothing, we build up spirits, confidence, and we have built a community behind our brand that we love to interact with.” - Samantha Colbert, owner.
