A 
boutique (from the French word for "shop") is a small shop that sells expensive or designer clothing and/or accessories.
In many places this tag is widely, but wrongly used to tag shops unrelated to clothing as in French speaking areas "boutique" is commonly part of a shop name[1].
In USA word "boutique" is also used to refer to shops selling houseware, skin & hair care products etc.[2]
