Maxine is a woman-owned boutique in downtown Elmhurst carrying a curated collection of apparel, jewelry, handbags, shoes, accessories, and gifts. The selection changes regularly with an eye for pieces that feel special rather than mass-produced.
Origin Story
Maxine was founded by J. Blanchette, who envisioned a women’s boutique that would bring a curated, personal shopping experience to downtown Elmhurst’s York Road corridor.
Located at 122 North York Road, the owner personally selects all apparel, jewelry, and accessories, building relationships with designers and brands that align with the shop’s aesthetic: chic, accessible, and always evolving.
Maxine has become a favorite among Elmhurst women who trust the boutique to surface pieces they wouldn’t have found on their own.
