I spent a happy afternoon strolling through Stonington and here are a few new finds.

Heidi’s Curated Living

Step inside this sprawling retail emporium and discover an extensive inventory of women’s designer collections, estate jewelry, vintage furnishings, home decor, linens, and plenty of interesting gift ideas. I was surprised (and delighted) to find Max Mara, Oliphant, Frances Valentine, Maison Marigold, and a slew of tempting brands new to me.  If you’re looking to add a special piece to your summer wardrobe or are on the hunt for the perfect party dress, you will not be disappointed here!  @heidis.curated

Anclaire

Anclaire is the Borough’s newest women’s boutique, radiating a breezy coastal vibe. Discover effortless cotton and linen pieces, mostly from women-owned collections. If you love two-piece sets, flowy dresses, beachy caftans, or a rainbow of denim, iconic sweaters, and tees, you’ll be tempted to treat yourself here.

Via Carota Cocktails at Cove Ledge Liquors

I grabbed a few of these colorful single-serve cocktails from one of my favorite restaurants for a beach dinner, and they were a hit! Plus, the empties make a sweet bud vase!
