Hi, I'm Lindsey! My showroom represents a curated assortment of brands: Free People, Young fabulous & broke and Beach Riot for New England and commando, good american, tkees, Daydreamer LA, Vitamin A Swim, Show me your mumu and i-sea for the Northeast.
I created L. Marie Sales, now BLVD Showroom, in 2016 after leaving the world of fashion in New York City for Boston. I was introduced to Free People Wholesale during my college internship at a specialty boutique in Newport, Rhode Island. After graduation I opened and managed a Free People Retail location in Connecticut and a year later chased my dream and left for the city to work at Free People's Wholesale Showroom. Years later, I manage the collections I love in Connecticut with my four pawed assistants, Layla and Basil and now my mini, Grayson.
