A new women's clothing boutique, Love of Hauls, will open on Saturday, Nov. 23, in Fingerlakes Mall. Founded by Mary Bodner, of Auburn, the boutique features a handpicked assortment of dresses, casualwear, office-ready pieces and more, the Aurelius mall said in a news release.

Bodner's goal with the boutique is helping women find fashion that's empowering, accessible and reflective of their style. "Owning a clothing store has always been dream of mine that was recently fueled by the lack of retail options in our immediate area," she said in the release. "This is 100% a passion project that I decided to run with and not look back.



I worked retail while in high school through college and even though I have an established career now, my retail roots have pulled me back. I have always enjoyed creating a great customer experience and have every intention to do that in my own store.” Prices vary from about $20 to $70, the mall said, with accessories averaging $5 to $30.

No items come in bulk. The boutique is open from 5 to 7 p.m.

Mondays through Wednesdays and Fridays, 5 to 9 p.m. Thursdays, 10 a.

m. to 7 p.m.

Saturdays and 11 a.m. to 5 p.
