Kathi Wachtenheim - Massachusetts

Massachusetts is our full time home. We vacation at our condo in Calabash, NC every year. My to do list includes: visit friends, search for sand dollars, enjoy Sunset Beach and of course shop at Island Breeze! My favorite sandals ( 3 pairs!) are from Island Breeze. Sweaters, jackets, jewelry, Brighton belts, and more are all treasures I find at Island Breeze. I love all the compliments I receive when I am wearing something from Island Breeze. Everyone wants to know where I shop! Island Breeze is my place to shop!

This is a funny story, but indeed a rousing testimonial to the fabulous clothes available at Island Breeze. I have told this story many times to groups of ladies and they all understand perfectly because they know that shopping at Island Breeze is just to tempting! Here goes . . .when my husband and I were building our new home in Winding River, I used a Master Charge to purchase various items for the home. One day, he opened the bill and confronted me about some of the charges saying, "What are all these charges I see each month at Island Breeze? What is Island Breeze?" I quickly replied, "Ceiling fans!" I used this excuse until our home was built and he knew we needed no more ceiling fans. Perhaps for next month's Island Breeze charges, I will explain them to be wind chimes! I must confess though, he still thinks I look pretty good wearing the clothes!

Jane Thilo - Bellevue, WA

I live in Bellevue Washington, close to Seattle, but I come to Sunset Beach at least every other summer to spend a week at my parent’s beach house. Whenever I’m there, I always make it a priority to visit Island Breeze because I have bought many of my favorite clothes there. Last summer I brought a friend with me on my trip. Of course I had to bring her to Island Breeze! She was so excited. Between the two of us, we almost bought out the store and we had a marvelous time in the process. Not only do you have fabulous clothes, but the staff is so much fun and we were made to feel so welcome. We’ll be back next summer and you can bet we’ll be coming to Island Breeze!  Wish you had a second location on the West Coast :)

I am continuously amazed at how welcome your staff makes me feel every time I enter your fabulous store.  Whether there are 10 people shopping or over 100 in your store, I am treated as if I am the only shopper.  Your staff makes helpful recommendations, puts extraordinary outfits together, and ensures that I look amazing in my new clothes! 
 
There are pieces of interest for every age group and for every occasion.  And the accessories!
 
What a lucky girl I am to live on the coast and have such a beautiful store at hand.

Maryann Barnaba - Secaucus, New Jersey

Living in New Jersey just a few miles from New York City and its many shops and boutiques should have given me quite an advantage in selecting a dress for my daughter's July 4th wedding in Chapel Hill, NC. Yet, I found the dress of my dreams in Island Breeze!

I stopped by last fall just to check out the selection and fell in love with a gorgeous Carolina Blue gown. It was only the second dress I looked at, so I honestly was hesitant to purchase it immediately (mistakenly thinking that I might just find something nicer).

When I returned home to New Jersey, I continued my search for the perfect dress. However, I couldn't get the Island Breeze gown out of my mind. So, I called Island Breeze and they had it shipped to me immediately. They explained that if I was not satisfied, I could send the dress back. When it did arrive, I knew it was the one!

As for the wedding day, I truly felt like a queen. The gown was so cool , comfortable and flowing, just what I had envisioned!

Thank you Island Breeze for helping to make this special day so perfect for me! Your staff was so gracious and accommodating. And the workmanship and styling of this dress (an exclusive creation for Island Breeze) was extraordinary. I know that I could never have found a more beautiful (and reasonably priced) gown anywhere, including the New York area.  Island Breeze, you are second to none

You requested one or two wonderful experiences I have had at Island Breeze, but the number is in the dozens! I love Island Breeze not only for the wonderful selection of clothing but the great, personalized service. Clarice, Sara and the other ladies are always ready to help fill a dressing room with a day's worth of things to try on! Island Breeze is the highlight of all of my beach trips!
