When and how did your business get started?
I opened in August 2011 after working at my mom's boutique on Taylor Street. I loved everything about it and felt like the Southside needed something like this.
What is your business best known for?
We are known for our one stop shopping. It's a great place to get a quick gift and I will even wrap it for you. You will always find something.
Why did you choose the town you did to open your business?
I grew up one block away and felt like our neighborhood needed an accessories boutique.
What's something interesting about your business your customers might not know?
This is my second business. I opened a wine bar on Taylor street with my brother almost 15 years ago. It's still going strong!
Does your business offer a special deals card or program?
We do work with the Manna Program.
