Eleanor and Hobbs Boutique

A hidden gem in Rocky River, Ohio

Tracy Hobbs is the founder and owner of Eleanor and Hobbs. She and her team opened their doors in Boulder County Colorado in the summer of 2013 and expanded to their storefront in Rocky River, Ohio in February 2022. Together they have created a unique community where women come together to shop, laugh, create memories, and share their lives.  Tucked in the corner of a timeless Rocky River plaza, the ladies at Eleanor and Hobbs have been hard at work for the last twenty-one months building a community of like-minded women who appreciate style and fashion. Let's take a dive into what makes Eleanor and Hobbs a must-visit shopping experience in Rocky River.

Eleanor and Hobbs takes pride in offering a carefully curated collection of contemporary fashion, sourced from well-known and local designers. Each season, Tracy and her team travel to New York and Los Angeles to scour the markets for the latest trends and emerging designers. They work tirelessly to build a curated collection of clothing, jewelry, and accessories. Most recently, the Eleanor and Hobbs team picked up Nili Lotan, a timeless designer who is not represented in Cleveland. They chose timeless lifestyle pieces that will take any woman from day into night, in style.

From high-end brands to moderate price points, there truly is something for everyone. Their most popular piece in the store is a $30 heart bracelet that makes the most perfect gift. Whether you are trying to build your wardrobe or are just dipping your toe into fashion, their team of stylists will help you. They pay close attention to how and where pieces are made, sustainability practices, and prices to offer their clients the best product on the market. They are the antithesis of fast fashion. Most of their pieces are made in the United States and will last until you decide to pass them on. 

“We hope that each piece you find at Eleanor and Hobbs becomes one of your favorites. We choose specific pieces from each designer’s collection with our clients in mind, and are focused on finding well-made, special, and thoughtful pieces. We get excited about bringing new fashion to Rocky River and the Greater Cleveland area each and every season. “ - Tracy Hobbs. 

Their specialty lies in denim, a nod to their roots in Colorado and the casual lifestyle of Boulder County. “We love buying on both coasts because we get to select pieces that have the cool laid-back vibe of California, and the “on the go” pace of New York City. We work hard to create the perfect balance of event wear, wardrobe essentials and on-trend styles.” - Tracy Hobbs.  

Their services even expand beyond their storefront, curating style boxes and creating a personal shopping experience at home. The boutique's thoughtful team of stylists works hard to assess your style, help you find great pieces and make you feel confident.
