A Personal Letter From Rose & Jamie

Rose & Jamie Boutique customer rating
A note from two sisters about the place that shaped us, why it needs help now, and a cozy sweater we would love to share with you.
The two sisters behind Rose & Jamie and the story that inspired our boutique.
We were 18 when we left home in the United States for Paris in 1990 to study fashion. We were excited, a little overwhelmed, and a very long way from home. We had no idea that a small boutique would become one of the most important places in our lives.
During the week, we studied fashion and shared a tiny attic room. On weekends, we worked at a neighborhood boutique called Maison Avélune. From our very first days, we were welcomed with such warmth that the shop quickly began to feel like home.
We learned how a boutique runs, but its owner taught us something far more important: fashion is not really about the clothes on the rack. It is about the person who takes them home. A piece only matters when it makes someone feel comfortable, confident, or a little more herself.
That is the lesson we still carry into Rose & Jamie. But Maison Avélune gave us more than a way of looking at clothes. It gave us a place where we knew we would always be welcome.

For other people, Maison Avélune might have been just another little fashion boutique in Paris. To us, it was a second home. The woman who owned it became like a second mother. When we went through difficult periods, she was there to help us. No matter what was happening, we knew there was somewhere we could go.
We never forgot that kindness. It is part of the reason we wanted Rose & Jamie to feel personal: not like a shop that sees a size or a sale, but like a place that sees you.
Now Maison Avélune has been largely destroyed and looted. Seeing a place that once felt so safe in this condition is heartbreaking for us. We want to help restore the boutique to the welcoming place it once was.

For years, she was the one helping us. Now it is our turn to help her. Every contribution to the Maison Avélune rebuilding effort brings us closer to making that place feel like itself again.
We have committed 50% of each completed order to help Maison Avélune rebuild. The contribution is based on the discounted order value, before shipping and taxes. The aim is simple: let everyday purchases become meaningful support.

Lottie — a soft, easygoing knit with a playful cat motif.
There is one small, happy thing the three of us always shared: we all loved cats. It is a detail that still makes us smile when we think about our time together in Paris.
So when we chose pieces for our support collection, Lottie felt especially meaningful. This oversized knit has a playful cat motif, a cozy feel for colder days, and the kind of comfortable, easy style we believe she would have loved too.
It is for fellow cat lovers who want a sweater that feels good to wear, looks lovely without much effort, and goes with the clothes they already own — from jeans to simple trousers or a skirt.
The playful cat detail is what first drew us to Lottie. It has personality without being too loud — a little everyday reminder of the love of cats that connected all three of us at Maison Avélune.
Lottie is designed for the days when you want an extra layer of comfort. Its soft, cozy knit feel makes it a lovely choice for a cold morning, a relaxed afternoon or an easy outing.
The relaxed, roomy silhouette is designed to fall comfortably rather than cling. It is the sort of fit you can move around in, with a laid-back look that still feels put together.
Wear Lottie with your favorite jeans and boots, or pair it with trousers or a skirt for a more polished look. Its charm comes from being easy to combine, not from needing a whole new outfit.
A lovely sweater should feel personal. Lottie is listed in 10 colors, from understated shades to brighter options — so you can choose what suits your own wardrobe and mood.
Lottie is offered in sizes S to 5XL. Use the measurements on its product page to choose how roomy you want the fit. The right size is the one you feel most comfortable wearing.
Not every sweater needs to make a statement. Here's how Lottie compares with a simple plain knit when you're choosing the style that suits you.
| Detail | A simple plain knit | Lottie Sweater |
|---|---|---|
| Silhouette | Depends on the style | Relaxed oversized cut |
| Look | Plain, understated design | Playful cat motif |
| Everyday styling | Works as a basic layer | Easy to style with jeans, pants or a skirt |
| Colors | Varies by collection | 10 listed colors |
| Sizes | Varies by collection | S to 5XL |
This is a style comparison, not a claim about the quality or construction of other brands.

Maison Avélune taught us that the nicest clothes are often the ones that make you feel most like yourself.
— Rose & JamieThree women, one love of cats, and a boutique where we learned that clothing should bring a little happiness to the person wearing it. That is exactly why Lottie belongs in this collection. It is comfortable, cheerful and easy to make your own.
There is a second reason. For every completed order, 50% of the discounted merchandise value, before shipping and taxes, is committed to helping rebuild Maison Avélune. Choosing Lottie means choosing something for yourself while helping us give back to someone who once gave us so much.
For us, Lottie is a small reminder of the three cat-loving women who once found a home in that boutique. And for anyone who loves easy, cozy style, it can become a new favorite of their own.

When we were two young sisters far from home, Maison Avélune was a place we could always walk into. Its owner never made us feel like we were alone. Now we want to help open that door again.
If Lottie feels like a sweater you will genuinely love, choosing one is also a way to stand beside us as we help restore the boutique that gave us so much.
With love,
Rose & Jamie ♥
