122 Here comes the bride: The owner of 2 boutique retail stores gives us the real scoop!

August 02, 2020

LET’S GET TO KNOW TODAY’S GUEST, KRYSTAL DARLING!


 


She is a Mama, a kick-ass entrepreneur of not 1 but 2 businesses, and she’s a lover of all things fashion - like seriously, her style is amazing and I wish I had her wardrobe.


I first connected with Krystal while searching for my dream wedding dress - a quest that took me all the way to Bracebridge Ontario, since I knew her shop had the exact dress that I was searching for. It was so serendipitous & it just so happened, Dave and I had chosen a wedding venue just a few minutes away from the shop, as well.


My experience working with Krystal was nothing short of amazing. She made the whole experience super comfortable and enjoyable - especially for someone like me, who barely ever gets out of her lululemons and tank tops.


With an eye for unique and beautiful pieces -  owning two boutique businesses is not just Krystal’s job, it's her passion.


She also owns a shop called Belle's Boutique, which is a carefully curated clothing shop that offers an array of exclusive fashion brands for women.


Also, might I point out that Krystal and I recorded this just days before she gave birth to her 2nd baby boy, Watson. Congrats, Krystal!


In this episode, we chat about…




  • How she’s been able to build something so much greater than just a retail store




  • The challenges she faced in starting a clothing business in a small & seasonal town




  • Why she decided to launch her second business, Darling Bridal Boutique in addition to owning & running Belle’s Boutique




  • Importance of partnerships, collaboration  & getting involved in your community




  • & so much more
