A couple of weeks late sharing this because… life. The intention at the time was to simply support our community by sharing a tiny snippet of a few spots we also shop. But it feels even more important to share now.
We are so grateful to live, work, and raise our children on this beautiful little island. Our family has continued to spread our roots here, and our little boutique is possible because of the incredible community - and this little sandbar - we’re proud to call home.
Our annual back-to-school tradition - aka “Mom finally gets a few hours away from the shop” - took us around the island to visit a few of our longtime favorite places.
There are so many more local businesses we love that didn’t make it into this reel, simply because there is never enough time in one afternoon to visit them all.
Please continue to support our local businesses whenever you can. These are not just storefronts - they are our neighbors, our friends, the families our children grow up alongside, and the people who show up for this island every single day.
We hit Little Bungalow hard because I LOVE their blankets their line of The Great.
Wink Boutiques is a MUST stop for new seasonal items and WINK stickers.
Sunny Shop - obsessed. The fun, funky, vintage vibe is everything, and I want it all - bought a lot of it. Lily is a treasure of a human.
Sink R Swim quite literally a back-to-school tradition for my little feral island children. SRHS HOCO dresses were procured, too!
Farias On Centre - no notes as usual. 10/10. Spent all the money here, and if I’m being honest, planning to do so again this weekend.
Salt Cottage Coastal Boutique - private shopping experience for my littles & we actually purchased a ton of new clothes for them - and they wear all of it. Apparently I have “peak fashion sense.” So there’s that. 😉
Other favs: Serendipity, Five 0 Six Surf Boutique, Viking Outfitters, sincerelyjunenj, Lavinia's Haven and so many more - my post is too long to list everyone.
After an especially difficult weekend in our community, our hearts are with sincerelyjunenj and BLVD PIZZA. Sending so much love, strength, & support to both
