About Us
Get To Know The Girl Gang
Story
We are a women-owned and operated boutique with two brick and mortar locations in Wallingford and Madison, Connecticut and have been open for 17 years.
We carry everything from denim to evening gowns and specialize in offering excellent service and making our clients feel and look their very best. Our Wallingford store is inside a 130 year old Queen Ann Victorian building with two floors of shopping. The second floor is home to our formalwear collection. Our Madison location is in the heart of the Connecticut shoreline and is home to not only our store, but the Aquinnah Jewelry Flagship, Lindsay J. Hair & Makeup Studio, and Annie Mame Boutique curated by Ann Nyberg.
