skirts and pants, jackets and tops, mother of the bride or groom<br />

dresses and specialty accessories. Each piece is unique and oneof-a-kind,<br />

and they only use high quality fabrics. They also fill the<br />

store with the latest trends and top designers, including Angela<br />

Moore, Mary Francis, Joseph Ribkoff, Frank Lyman, Tribal and<br />

many more. All their clothing is upscale yet very affordable. You<br />

can find a unique outfit or accessory for a night out on the <strong>Ave</strong> or<br />

a dinner party or luncheon.<br />

“Sophisticated and moderately priced,” is how the owner describes<br />

the clothing in her store.<br />

“We cater to the woman who has an important social life, who<br />

wants an outfit that is flattering, sophisticated, and clothing that<br />

will take her from day to night. We try to keep our prices of the<br />

clothing moderate for our customers,” she said. “We accommodate<br />

everything from casual and sophisticated day wear, lots of<br />

separates, jackets, skirts and pants, cocktail attire, and everything<br />

in between.”<br />

Besides high quality clothing, the boutique also has a welcoming<br />

atmosphere of a small business. Unlike big malls and department<br />

stores, the owner and staff specialize in being knowledgeable<br />

about fashion, trends, clothing designers and can dress you<br />

from head to toe and for any occasion.<br />

“Many women today have careers, so when they shop they<br />

want to have expediency and one-on-one attention. The access<br />

to our store is expedient. When they drive up, there is plenty<br />

of parking; the location is very convenient. And there is always<br />

someone here to help you find that perfect outfit,” said the owner.<br />

“All of my staff offers that red carpet experience to our customers.<br />

You are getting one-on-one service here!”<br />

The owner also gives back to the community through charity<br />

events and fashion shows including the Delray Beach Fashion<br />

Week and many more. Nance, who attended the Parsons School<br />

of Design and owned a hotel, has many years of experience in the<br />

hospitality industry. Many of the customers come in to socialize<br />

with staff and friends and make a day out of shopping and catching<br />

up. The owner Nance has become close friends with many of<br />

her customers and has dressed their entire families. The owner<br />

continues to have the same enthusiasm for the store since the<br />

day it opened.<br />

“I’m still excited about the store and have enthusiasm for the<br />

fashion industry. If you enjoy what you are doing, it doesn’t feel<br />

like work. I get to outfit clothing for the local community and<br />

three generations of families, from grandmothers to mothers<br />

and daughters,” said Nance.<br />
