Teely's Boutique

While working alongside each other at one of the top boutiques in Nashville, Neely Butler and Tara Tomlinson-Paulin realized they both loved the same things in life: friendship, fashion and fun in the sun. Their decision to migrate (further) south to fulfill their dreams of running their own store made perfect sense, and in April 2011, they founded Teely’s Boutique.

With a little luck, a lot of hard work and style to spare, Teely’s Boutique will bring the latest and greatest accessories and apparel to 30-A. The space is chic—bold splashes of vibrant colors lend a modern touch while vintage accents keep it cozy and inviting.

Neely, who graduated from the University of Tennessee with a degree in communications, worked in advertising and public relations for Us Weekly, Rolling Stone, Neiman Marcus - and most recently, Posh Boutique. Like public relations, she knows that good style is all about the angle, and believes in the power of accessorizing to get the most out of your wardrobe.

Tara, who has a degree in marketing from The University of Missouri-Columbia was the Visual Merchandiser for the flagship BCBG store in New York City- and most recently, the Director of Merchandising for Posh Boutique. She clearly has a serious eye for aesthetics - both with fashion & decor. Bold, chic and colorful, Tara has mastered the ability to create stylish, innovative looks both in-store and on her clients.

Their little shop of fashion opens Thursday, May 5! Follow Teely's on twitter @shopteelys!
