Meet Caroline

Meet Caroline, dress-lover, beach-goer, new mom, and owner of 8.28 Boutique! She is passionate about offering confidence-boosting pieces to all of her customers, with a few fun trends scattered throughout. 

Read on to see what she has to say about her favorite things, personal style, and inspiration when buying for the boutique!

Favorite place to vacation:

Anywhere with a beach! I am such a Florida girl in that way. I love traveling and experiencing new things, but if I get to chose a vacation, I’m going to the beach!

Favorite ice cream flavor:

I am definitely in the minority when it comes to this, I don’t really like ice cream. I like ice cream when it’s on top of another dessert, but I don’t crave ice cream on its own!

Favorite nail polish color:

My favorite nail polish color changes by season. In the summer I love Funny Bunny by OPI. In the fall I love Complimentary Wine or Good Girls Gone Plaid!

What are the first 3 things you do each morning?

The first three things I do in the morning have changed since having a baby, but because I own my own business and wor from home, I have to make sure I stay motivated. I always take a shower first thing in the morning and typically act like I’m going to work at a traditional job. Then I get a pick cup of coffee, check my Shopify, and start fulfilling orders!

Top 3 artists on your Spotify right now?

I am a creature of habit when it comes to my music and who I listen to. If I’m not listening to worship music, I’m listening to Ben Rector or Drew Holcomb and the Neighbors.

Who is your biggest influence?

Definitely my mom! She is truly an amazing woman and I hope to one day be half the woman/wife/mom that she is!

Define your personal style in 3 words:

Classic, timeless but sometimes edgy!
