Lula’s Vintage Boutique opens on State Street

Lula’s Vintage Boutique, 221A E. State St. (above Waldow’s), has opened in the downtown River District. Lula’s is an eclectic boutique with a mixture of new and vintage fashions, gifts and accessories. The store offers a varied selection of vintage (and not so vintage) fashions from the 1920s to present.

Lula’s is the collaboration of two minds: a Lu…(Luan Dean) and a La…(Lauretta Rundgren).

“Downtown Rockford was the perfect place to open Lula’s,” Dean said. “We both love the downtown area and want to see it thrive.”

Rundgren said, “The boutique is a mixture of vintage and new items with a shabby chic feel that is the fashion hit now.”

Dean said: “Lula’s is not your typical boutique—it’s not only a shopping experience, it’s a whole new attitude. We want women to not only look good but also feel good about themselves.”

Some items available at Lula’s include the following (Note: inventory is always changing): Vintage fashions, purses, scarves, shoes, hats, jewelry, gloves, antiques, new sterling silver jewelry, note cards, frames, gifts, and, coming soon, lotion, bath essentials and soaps.
