A many folks probably know...I love to shop. I also love a great deal and, still, I enjoy nice…read morethings. Hence why I enjoy the thrill of sale shopping. Well, Avalilly's is an adorable boutique in Cornelius and provides me with this same thrill through their unique concept. To quote from their website "Avalilly's brings in excess inventory and fashion overstock from the nation's top women's boutiques to the Cornelius store and offers this highly sought-after designer clothing at great prices." Rawr-some. It's not a big space, but you can certainly score designer duds for less here. Don't expect giant discounts (unless you're shopping their sale section)...look forward to more like 10-25% off typical boutique prices. Again, these duds are still brand new and many in season. The inventory changes often as does the selection of different items in varying sizes. Brand wise, I spied items from Three Dots, Trina Turk, Citizens of Humanity, J Brand, Michael Stars and more. There's also a well put together accessory collection including gorgeous bags, jewelery and belts. If you're in the Cornelius area, definitely drop by Avalillys - the selection may be just what you're looking for and the girls who work here are just as sweet as can be.

She selects perfect pieces and outfits for me that I would never try on myself, and they look fabulous! I feel great in all her selections and I always receive compliments on my Bevello look including jewelry, handbags & shoes!
