About Grace

Grace is a New-England style boutique located on the Southern Coast of Connecticut. We celebrated our 15th year in business in 2022. Our brand aesthetic is modern fashion that is approachable and moderately priced. Our goal is to provide an inspirational shopping experience while empowering women to live their best life. Our customers love that both mothers and daughters can shop together and find something each can wear with confidence. During the holiday season, we are a very popular destination for gifts and decor.  Our product offerings are inspired by the vibes of Anthropologie, Free People, Terrain, J.Crew, but we are truly driven by our own creative vision.

What is Grace? 

What is Grace? Well, as a noun, the dictionary describes the word as meaning “elegance, finesse, and poise”. As a verb, it can mean “to adorn, embellish, or decorate”. That’s what Grace means, but what is Grace?

Grace is a Sunday morning, cozy in bed with a warm cup of coffee and sunlight streaming through the windows.

Grace is a crackling fireplace, a good book, and the first snow of the season.

Grace is sunrise at the beach, with warm blankets and old friends.

Grace is family.

Grace is home.

We look forward to helping you take a little bit of Grace with you everywhere you go.
