It is so refreshing to see the American Dream alive and well and living on 41 Central Street in our town.
One of the things that makes Wellesley strong and unique is we honor small unique businesses. Alexis and Kimberly started Isabel Harvey from the ground up and named it after their grandmother.
Isabel Harvey has a robust and effective tagline: Be sparkly. And of course they call the sales associates ‘the sparklers’.
Isabel Harvey is a welcoming store with great customer service and sparkly vibration which is contagious.
Today The Wellesley Celebrations Committee, a standing committee of the Select Board, Town of Wellesley honors Isabel Harvey, with a Community Service Award.
Here is the story of Isabel Harvey in their own words:
“Our Grandmother, Isabel Harvey, is the inspiration behind our business. Classical in her taste and creative in her fashion, she taught us that every woman should express her own style through beautiful, fun, and unique accessories. Most importantly, however, she believed that good character, strength, and confidence were the keys to good taste.
With the launch of Isabel Harvey, we have created a line of jewelry and home goods of which we are deeply proud. Throughout the line, we have made sure that each piece represents our grandmother’s graceful demeanor and keen sense of style, as well as our own individual spirit and artistic vision. We are excited to have created a place online where women can find unique and beautiful pieces that represent everything from everyday modern elegance to night-on-the-town bohemian chic.
As experienced stylists and skilled jewelry consultants, our goal is to guide women and help them find special pieces that will enhance their personal style and define their sense of fashion. Our Grandmother not only had great taste- but she also had an intuition about what worked and what didn’t. We, at Isabel Harvey, refer to this as Style Intuition, an ability to see something, try it on and know that it possesses that trend-setting element that sets you apart. This trait passed on to us is what sets us apart from other boutiques and shops. With a diverse, ever-changing collection of jewelry, there is always something that’s just perfect for everyone.”
As we celebrate our American Revolution, there is a spirit we inherited of knowing we can make it on our own. These are today’s entrepreneurs. Small businesspeople, who fuel America’s growth.
It is not easy to start, operate and expand businesses.
Alexis and Kimberly, you did well. Congratulations to Isabel Harvey on 20 years of success.
