Dear Lucy

Vermont friends… the temps may say “feels like -18°,” but February break is almost here, and we’re thinking ahead to those getaway outfits ☀️✈️

New from Sam Edelman — this woven mesh Mary Jane with espadrille detail is the perfect warm-weather neutral for wherever break takes you. Easy, lightweight, and made for sunshine days (even if we’re still layering parkas for now).

And good news — our Vermont customers can now shop us online, so your break-ready styles can ship straight to your door.

Dear Burlington,
Today we begin our Closing Sale and the start of our final chapter on Church Street.
After many many years, countless pairs fitted, and so many memories shared — it’s time for Dear Lucy Burlington to step back. Retail has shifted, downtown realities have changed, and we’ve made the thoughtful decision to close our doors at the end of January.

This is bittersweet, but it comes with deep gratitude.
Thank you for supporting a little local shop with a big heart.
Thank you for choosing small, for showing up season after season, and for letting us be part of your lives. We didn’t just sell shoes — we got to watch you celebrate milestones, grow families, build careers, and walk out feeling your best.

✨ Our Official Closing Sale begins now.
Expect progressive markdowns, special events, and later this month — the opportunity to purchase fixtures, displays, and store treasures that have been part of our journey.

We also want to reassure you of something important:
Our employees are valued, and they will be treated well throughout this process. They have been the heart of Dear Lucy, and we are committed to supporting them through this transition.

We’ll continue posting updates here throughout the month so you can follow along, shop the sale, and give our team the warm send-off they deserve.

With appreciation and full hearts,
Melissa & The Dear Lucy Team
