Our Story - From Lauren:

Eccentrics Boutique is the realization of a dream, brought to life by Lauren Craig in September 2011. With a passion for fashion and a keen eye for style, Lauren carefully curates a selection of premium brands, trend-forward clothing, accessories, shoes, beauty products, and gifts. Located in Southern Illinois, Eccentrics Boutique thrives on the warmth of a close-knit community where every shopper is more than just a customer—she's part of the family.

Hi, I’m Lauren—the founder and creative force behind Eccentrics Boutique. Helping women express their unique style is my passion! While growing this business, I’m also dedicated to raising a loving family that puts faith first. With the unwavering support of my husband and three amazing children—Ledger, Elle, and Indy—I strive to balance motherhood and entrepreneurship. My journey started with a degree in Fashion Merchandising and Marketing from SIU, followed by hands-on experience in high-end retail. Eventually, I brought my city-inspired vision home to Southern Illinois, launching my dream in a cozy 400-square-foot loft. As demand grew, so did our space, expanding into a full boutique and online store.

Every day is a learning experience, and I am incredibly grateful for the team and customers who make this dream possible. At Eccentrics, we believe in exceptional customer service and a hassle-free shopping experience, both in-store and online. And as for me? I believe in big hair, bold lipstick, and, of course, a little shimmer—because yes, shimmer is absolutely a color!
