Shopping!! Aquamarine, Boutique, Historic Lewes, Delaware, Beach Chic, Ladies Apparel, Shoes, Jewelry, Delaware Beaches, Southern Delaware, A Must Stop Shop for Women of all Ages

Kick back in style at the Delaware Beaches.  Aquamarine has been recognized by “Elle” magazine as one of the 50 best boutiques across the 50 states.  I can see why….all boutiques are shops but not all shops are boutiques.  Personal attention at Aquamarine is what you will get.  And, once you become a customer, Maureen and her Mom will remember your name.

Aquamarine is located at 114 Second Street, in the heart of Lewes Historic District.  Tel. 302-644-4550.  Website?  http://www.aquamarineat114.com.  You can also find Aquamarine on Market on Facebook.

What makes us, women, come back to this boutique?  The inside is so pretty.  The building dates to the 1900’s.  It used to be the hardware store owned by the Vessel Family.  Rich woods and cabinetry are beautifully preserved.

Aquamarine has something for everyone and the personal attention that customers receive is just that.  Maureen has a great eye for what looks good on a woman.  She is honest, friendly, and you’ll love her immediately because she makes you feel like you have known her forever.

Here, at the Delaware Beaches, our lifestyle is very casual…Beach Chic, Resort Attire….we love it!  The dress code is sophisticated but understated, as well.

We are waiting for summer, the temperatures are rising, the flowers are starting to bloom.  You can feel it in the air.  There is something about it.  By the time you read this post, hopefully, the tulips are blooming in Lewes.  Aquamarine is full of colorful ladies apparel and Maureen mentioned that she has new lines in the store.  For example, there is one line that she thinks is great.  It is called Planet.  This company utilizes top natural fabrics like Irish handkerchief linen, prima cotton, and washed silk organza.  Palettes are of soft hues.

Enjoy the week-end and sunny weather!!

Shopping, Deanna’s, Historic Lewes, Delaware, Women’s Apparel, Casual Clothing, Accessories, Shoes, Shop Local, Tax Free, Delaware Beaches, Southern Delaware

I bumped into Deanna as I was taking pictures of a beautiful day in Lewes.  The weather was a bit cooler and I am, definitely, ready for it…and what a difference a few days make.

I followed Deanna into her own store….Deanna’s, located at 111-113 Second Street, Lewes, DE 19958.  Tel. 302-644-1112.  Second Street in Historic Lewes is Main Street.  Lots of shops and restaurants are found on this street and surrounding streets, as well.

It seems like it was just yesterday but Deanna has had her store for about 19 years.  The store has merchandise catering to a wide range of ages.  You will find Deanna and Ashley, her daughter, receiving customers, chatting with them, and making them feel at home as they shop in a store that has all those indispensables that we love here at the beaches.  And if you are shopping with your significant other….there is a nice comfortable sofa to make him feel at home or if you want to rest a bit.

Casual clothing, jeans and sweaters.

Shoes…summer and winter.

Dresses….

Perfect for this time of the year…These long tees are flying out of the store.

For the little ones….look what I found!

So, remember that in spite of the rain…the stores are open, tax free shopping in Delaware and Columbus Week-End is Here!!  And, are the Sales!
