Where did 70% of the inventory go? What about accessories, shoes, bags? What about the luxury items for a special event? Home accessories? Sale rack? It's so DRASTICALLY different...and NOT good. What a bummer. They should not have kept the name... Guess we'll all be saving a lot of money moving forward...

I was looking forward to see how they would put their spin on a classic boutique in Stone Harbor. They still have a Lilly selection, although it's so much smaller than it used to be. I loved seeing some Instagram favorite brands like Farm Rio and The Striped Sheep in the racks, but like a previous reviewer indicated, I was missing the usual volume of fun inventory, cute, whimsical things you would only be able to find at the shore. It felt more like the boutiques I encounter in Manhattan. I also missed the warmth toward the customers. Not a single associate interacted with my mother and I when we browsed, which was incredibly disappointing for two, loyal People People customers.

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!

I have been greeted kindly, and with a "thank you" when leaving even if I did not purchase anything. They have a very interesting eclectic selection to shop from. They have some clothing, some ceramic souvenir items, clothing, handbags and some very attractive jewelry. You'll also see some art for sale too. I especially enjoy the handmade soap from Blue Eden that Coastal FX sells. This is how that soap addiction started. "The Beach" handmade soap caught my senses and the rest is history. I've purchased jewelry and a mermaid ceramic dish along the way and was pleased with my purchase. I like this store because it's affordable in the Stone Harbor world of affluent Dr's and lawyers with their multimillion dollar homes. I think you'll enjoy the selection.

The owner told me this is her 3rd location and she only recently opened in this location 2 months ago. The shop is beautifully appointed and items are displayed attractively. I purchased a really cute pair of pants at sale price, but for the most part items are unique and priced accordingly. This is a store for a discerning customer who appreciates fine things that can't be found elsewhere and is willing to pay for them. This shop has fine shoes, purses, accessories and clothing items for women. There are items for a younger demographic but the mature shopper will be very enticed by the items in the shop. The location of the shop is next to a long time Stone Harbor women's clothing store, Gingy's, Stephanie's, an upscale gift shop and the Happy Hunt, a locally themed beachwear shop. It is definitely a shop to visit when you venture off the main shopping street a block up.
