A letter from two sisters about the boutique that welcomed them, the kindness they hope to return, and a pair of classic lace-up ankle boots chosen for everyday women.
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.
The daily countdown follows New York time and resets at midnight ET.

Maison Avélune taught us to look past the item itself and think about the woman who will wear it. Will she feel comfortable? Confident? At ease in her everyday life? That lesson guides the pieces we choose for Rose & Jamie.
That is why we chose Trudy for this collection. It has the familiar charm of a lace-up ankle boot, with a smooth synthetic-leather upper, a rounded toe and contrast stitching around the sole.
Wear it with straight-leg jeans and a cozy sweater, leggings and a long coat, or tights and a casual dress. It is one of those everyday styles that works with the wardrobe you already love.

The front lace-up design lets you loosen or tighten the boot around your foot and ankle. A useful detail when you switch between regular socks and thicker pairs.

The product listing describes a cushioned insole intended for everyday comfort. It is a welcome detail for the days when you are out and about.

A low heel keeps the silhouette casual and understated. Pair Trudy with your everyday outfits without feeling overly dressed up.

Trudy is described with a durable rubber sole for day-to-day use. The contrast stitching around the edge adds the distinctive finishing detail.

A softly rounded toe and ankle-height profile give these boots their classic look. The smooth synthetic-leather finish works naturally with jeans, trousers and casual dresses.

We still believe that beautiful clothing starts with one question: how does the person wearing it feel?
— Rose & JamieThe owner of Maison Avélune taught us that thoughtful clothes and accessories are about the person wearing them. We chose Trudy because it combines a familiar lace-up ankle-boot shape with practical details: adjustable laces, a cushioned insole, a low heel and a rubber sole.
And now that lesson comes full circle. We have committed 50% of the discounted merchandise value of each completed order, before shipping and taxes, to help restore Maison Avélune. Choosing a piece you genuinely love helps us give back to someone who gave us so much.
If Trudy feels like a pair of everyday ankle boots you would reach for with jeans, trousers or casual dresses, we would love for you to make them your own.
