Darling Way Boutique

Darling Way is reminiscent of a different era. A
throwback to a time when one's surroundings
were meant to be touched as well as admired,
appreciated in real life not on a screen; when
personal relationships were a mainstay of life;
imagination was encouraged and creative
expression welcomed. Beauty was recognized
in many different forms; the natural human body was revered by artists. Romance and courtship flourished. The jet set crowd prided itself on their willingness to converse about meaningful, even controversial topics of the day.

We at Darling Way refuse to accept the current view of sexuality; we refuse to abide by a
view in which emotional intimacy is dismissed as trivial; we abhor the idea that bodies are
only beautiful after airbrushing and editing; we know absolutely that there is a better
alternative. Instead, we choose to celebrate beauty, love and pleasure through artistic, literary, sensory exploration. We rejoice in all things romantic. Percy Bysshe Shelley said it best: The joy, the triumph, the delight, the madness! The boundless, overflowing, bursting gladness, The vaporous exultation not to be confined! Ha! Ha! The animation of delight
Which wraps me, like an atmosphere of light,
And bears me as a cloud is borne by its own wind.
( Prometheus Unbound)
Inspired thusly, our unique boutique is full of romantic treasures, elegant gifts, vintage books,
inspired menswear and gorgeous lingerie; The silky, lacy lingerie is intended to be pleasing
and appealing while gracefully worn with pride, or even while draped casually over a chair.
Our candles will add old fashioned ambiance and arousing scents at any time of day or
night. Romantic books beg to be browsed. Sensual art will please and tease, rather than
show and shock. Small treasures that will incite your imagination and encourage joyous
sensual play. Of course, providing sustenance and tasteful satisfaction in all such pursuits,
there is nothing more romantic than deliciously divine chocolates to tempt even the most
discriminating palate.
