Ashiko Couture Boutique, Rockford

At Ashiko Couture Boutique, a trip into the dressing room is all it takes to discover Hollywood-caliber style. That's because the boutique's owner keeps the shop stocked with celebrity-inspired apparel in sizes ranging from S to 3XL. The women's section features on-trend pieces such as sheer split tops and midriff-baring two-piece ensembles, and the men's side offers trendy t-shirts and polos. Ashiko's buyers also seek out sales and travel back in time to track down upscale consignment pieces by designers such as Christian Louboutin.
