Shopping at the Beach - part II by Elizabeth Tucker

Hello,

Boutique Buzzz is very happy to introduce you to our Guest Blogger this week, Elizabeth Tucker - creator of the stylish phone carrier Eye-Pocket http://eye-pocket.com/. We hope you enjoy her shopping adventures at the Beach as much as we did!

  
  On Wednesday I kicked around Bethany Beach for a little timeout from the sun to do some shopping. My first stop was one of my favorite boutiques in Bethany, Sanpoula's. Great selection of bright, beachy fashions; tons of handbags and beautiful shoes. They have lots of great sales going on. Find them on Facebook at Sanpoula's. 

Next I wondered over to Lighthouse Station. The Palms is in that corner shopping center, as well as Yuppy Puppy... to bring your favorite pet home a beach souvenir! I was excited to discover a great new boutique called “haven blu.” I enjoyed spending some time chatting with owner Jen Vernon about her new store. She just opened this season right before Memorial Day. I was impressed by her selection of upscale, unique dresses, tops and bottoms. In my opinion, a much needed addition to Bethany’s shopping selection. You can find them on Facebook at haven blu. I highly recommend stopping in when visiting Bethany.

Wednesday I took a drive down to Fenwick Island and took a peak into another favorite of mine, Paco’s Paradise. I always enjoy browsing their selection and unique, dressy sandals. They are celebrating their 40th anniversary with lots of merchandise on sale.

On our last night at the beach we spent some more time in Rehoboth & I found a store called Just Dance Boutique. Everything in the store was 35% off, and handbags were 50% off. They had a great selection of casual, fun dresses and quite a few really pretty handbags.


Late July into August seems to be a great time for shopping at the beaches. Since the end of the season is near, all shops are offering generous sales and bargains. I only wish I had had more time to explore the plentitude of boutiques to be found.

Shopping at the Beach - Part I by Elizabeth Tucker

Hello,

Boutique Buzzz is very happy to introduce you to our Guest Blogger this week, Elizabeth Tucker - creator of the stylish phone carrier Eye-Pocket http://eye-pocket.com/. We hope you enjoy her shopping adventures at the Beach as much as we did!


Every year our family has the pleasure of vacationing in Bethany Beach, DE. One of my favorite activities, besides sitting in the sand, eating piles of blue crabs and embarrassing myself at miniature golf, is the shopping! The great thing about staying in Bethany, is the proximity to Rehoboth, Dewey, Fenwick and Ocean City, Lots and lots of retail options!

Sunday I did a little shopping In Ocean City, MD. The boutique shopping is slim in OC, but I did find a great little shop called “Fashion For Less.” They have four locations; you can find their stores at www.fashionsforless.net. They have a fun selection of inexpensive items such as watches, purses, hats, scarves, costume jewelry and cosmetics (nail polish, hair chalk, etc.).

On a super quick trip to Rehoboth Tuesday I had a few minutes to visit Tiger Lili on Rehoboth Avenue (https://www.facebook.com/tigerlilirehoboth).  Always a nice selection of dresses, jewelry, handbags, and other cute tops and bottoms. I picked up a great beachy dress on sale for $29.00!

They were also running a jewelry sale, buy one, get one half off. I considered buying this pretty elephant cuff bracelet, but didn’t... now I’m sort of regretting it! Tiger Lili now also has an outlet location in the Bayside Outlets, Rehoboth.


I also took a quick peek into Cleo’s Boutique, (247 B Rehoboth Avenue, www.cleosrehoboth.com) which I adore! They were also having a great sale. Lots of beautiful new items for fall - boots, sweaters, dresses, and more. 






















Stay Tuned for Part II Coming soon!!
