“Give the lady what she wants,” Lynn McFee tells me, referencing department store magnate Marshall Field’s famous saying. She’s referring to her retail philosophy at McFee on Main, her beautifully-appointed home décor and clothing boutique nestled on Mount Horeb’s main drag. McFee just celebrated her shop’s fourth anniversary this past September.
Prior to owning her boutique, McFee had a long career in Chicago and New York City with Ralph Lauren’s men’s, women’s and home divisions. Using the expertise she gained from her 30-year career, McFee skillfully mixes home items (tea towels, utensils, blankets), baby gifts, accessories and clothing in her two-story shop.
McFee especially enjoys hand-selecting the clothing she carries, which are all pieces that are wearable for everyday — with a stylish bent (see the leopard coat below!).
“We all like our in-person retail fix — and you can’t get that online,” says McFee. “Customers love coming here, and I love making it special for them.”
