The owners, and staff are sweet as can be, always happy to help you with recommendations and style suggestions based on what you're looking for, what's currently in style, or what they think you'd like based on your look. Every time I go here, I can't help but find an adorable must-have, either clothes or accessories. There is also a store in Wayne that's outstanding as well, but open in the Fall-Spring. Stop by, you'll love it!

For the other seasons, they have Patagonia, Barbour and Helly Hansen just to name a few. In addition to clothing, they offer a healthy selection of accessories as well, my personal favorite are the HydroFlasks. The store is located right in the middle of the economic hub of Stone Harbor (with a new location on 21st Street in Avalon), so there is also a large number of activities that you can partake in after getting you Global fix on. The staff is extremely helpful and welcoming, I'll definitely return.

This is my second year visiting Boutique at the Beach and while last year I found many more items…read moreto purchase, as did my mom, I was still happy with what I found. I spent about $180 on 4 sale bras, a camisole, a leather fall top, and a pair of casual summer pants in a funky print. The bras I purchased last year, also on sale, have become my favorites so I was looking to add more. At this time of year all the jewelry is 50% off as are many other items. They carry some new fall and winter items as well as plenty of after season summer outfits, from mix and match from an Italian company, to mother/daughter bathing suits, short shorts and long trendy jeans. I visited California this summer and many of the items have a distinctly California coast vibe to them. One lady was shopping for a long dress and she looked good in at least two of the ones she modelled, all on sale for 50% off. Last year my mom purchased a number of the Italian one size outfits and was looking to add pieces to them, but the sizing this year was smaller than last year. The proprietor told us many people had trouble with the sizing this year which may account for why she had more left than one would want end of season. I find the items to be affordable for a bit higher end beach wear especially at off season. The proprietor knows her merchandise and is very helpful with questions about fit and quality. I know all of the items I purchased last year became wardrobe favorites, and I was slightly disappointed not to find the same number items I really wanted to take home. Never the less we may make one more stop before the week is out. I would say the clothing and accessories are mid priced for a beach town, different than you find in other stores, a bit beach trendy and would appeal to a mature buyer for some items and a younger buyer interested in California style beach wear. Let me say it is further up 3rd Ave than most of the shops so you can miss it, but there is convenient parking and worth a visit if you are shopping in the area.
