Lovit Boutique is to close its Queen Street store next Saturday.

However, owner Jenia Thompson said today that the three-year-old store had plans to reopen in the near future.

In a statement, Lovit said: “Downsizing will allow Lovit Boutique to focus solely on providing fashionable work and special event options as dictated by the needs of its local clients.”

The statement added that “all remaining items are available at dramatically reduced prices”.

The women’s clothes store says it provides “upscale, unique options for work, a night out, or just a casual afternoon”.

Ms Thompson said: “I will definitely miss our location in Windsor Place and have big plans to reopen the store with a renewed focus on bringing in trendy yet classic clothing and jewellery lines.

“I thank everyone who has supported the store over the past three years. I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know all my Lovit customers. I hope to see you again very soon.”
