Lounging Around
Longtime bra-fitting specialist Erin Yates launched her online boutique Lounge With Us in December 2020, as women increasingly began working from home and seeking more comfortable clothing during the pandemic. This October, Yates opened her first storefront in the Merchants Village shopping center on James Island, offering bra fittings and lingerie from popular brands such as Natori and Simone Perele and pajamas from PJ Salvage and HoneyDew Intimates. In addition, shoppers can find comfy loungewear, maxi dresses, graphic T-shirts, accessories, whimsical decor, and gifts in the cheerful space. [520 Folly Rd., Ste. 130, loungewithus.com]
