Shopkeeper Spotlight: Frankie & Steph of Willow Grey Boutique
Shopkeeper Spotlight is a monthly post where I feature one shopkeeper and their business! Frankie and her business partner, Stephanie, are owners of Willow Grey Boutique.
Willow Grey is an online boutique focused on bringing the best hand-picked pieces to your closet. Our goal is to make each woman who shops with us feel beautiful in outfits that can be dressed up or dressed down. Here’s their spotlight in Frankie’s words.
