I was introduced to Conversation Pieces through one of the blogs that I read. I immediately fell in love with this little store. The selection of clothes at Conversation Pieces is exquisite, all the pieces are easy to wear and they will become your go to pieces time and time again. What I love most about this store is the store owner Audrey, she takes the time to answer any questions you may have, she is always asking the customer's opinion of the items to buy for her store. You can see the dedication to her customers, employees, and pets! I had the opportunity to ask her some questions to find out a little bit more about her and her store.
1. Why did you decide to open your own boutique?
10 years of twist and turns and heartbreak. I used to hold international sample sales… hosted events for all the indie denim brands.… I was an off price buyer… I was a liquidator/buyer… I was also a wholesale vintage buyer…
2. What sets your store apart from all the rest?
hmmm…. I think first and for most, I spend time taking care of employees and customers more than I spend time on creating promotion or marketing opportunities. We also let our customers/readers into our life through events held either at our home office, or meeting up when I travel. I also do not stock furiously. I take time to find clothes that are easy to wear, great to travel with, and are your go-to pieces over and over again. They must last a few seasons, wear well, feel good and are affordable, low maintenance and practical. I try my best to ensure that every piece from Conversation Pieces is something that you will reach for in your closet time and time again.
3. What do you like most about what you do?
I get to be me EVERY DAY!
4. How do you describe your personal style?
Comfortable and chic.
5. Besides owning a store, I see you have a blog about cooking/recipes, what made you want to blog about that?
By the answers to these questions and by reading more about her story here you can see that Audrey is a very humble and caring person. She is always willing to lend a hand, plus she is always whipping up something yummy in the kitchen. I know that you will fall in love with Conversation Pieces, Audrey and her adorable pets.
Audrey is so wonderful she she offered to give us all free shipping with the code FallinloveFreeShip. and who doesn't love free shipping.
