Le Point Turns 5, Invites You To Celebrate From Afar

Only three weeks ago, we were all patting ourselves on the back for frequent hand-washing and scoring a few roles of Charmin, and now we’re locked down in our homes, living life via Zoom, and questioning if it’s possible to return to a life of wearing pants. (Leg prisons, amirite?) But you know what didn’t stop during these uncertain times? Le Point. The Mission District store is still serving up lewks on Instagram and shipping out orders—albeit with heightened virus-fighting protocols. And, as the headline on this article suggests, the boutique is celebrating a major milestone: it just turned five!

Making it as a small business in San Francisco is no small feat, so most stores that hit the five-year mark like to throwdown with music and booze and the works. But for this little coronavirus setback, Le Point would be doing the exact same thing. Owner Pauline Montupet is taking it all in stride, though, and showering clients with discounts instead. Wanna help her celebrate? Why not enjoy 30% off your purchase and free domestic shipping? It’s the e-commerce equivalent of birthday cake!

Free shipping continues on US orders through April—no code necessary. For the 30%-off-icing-on-the-cake, you’ll need to use the code 5YEARS through April 12. Orders are shipping on Mondays and Thursdays, so buy yourself something pretty, and then be patient. It will come.

Even if you don’t come across something you need right now, consider supporting this small, woman-owned business by purchasing a gift card towards a future purchase. Got questions on sizing—or anything else, really—slide into Le Point’s DMs on Facebook or Instagram. They’re super responsive.

We’re all in this lockdown together, apart. Here’s your chance to brighten your day and a local business owner’s.
