About Us

Havlan & West began as a brick & mortar in Chicago’s Bucktown neighborhood in 2015 and now is solely an online boutique. H&W was started by Emily McKenney Happ because she saw a need for easy-to-wear pieces that can be paired with items already in your closet for an affordable price. It is important to us that the brands we carry have safe working environments and provide fair wages for their employees. Several of the brands are fully or partially produced in the USA. See a list of brands below.

We love to help women feel comfortable and beautiful in their everyday clothing. Please contact us with any questions!
