    I love this boutique, when ever I need to look fresh for an event she’s my gal. She also offers great service, in that she possess many skills. I needed help figuring out my measurements and I didn’t know who to go to, so my sister referred me to her and she helped greatly. Apart from all of that she treats everyone who comes in her boutique with respect, and treats them like family. 5/5⭐️

    I own several curtains, cookware, suits and loafers from this prestigious boutique! I have also watched the steady growth of a dream transform into a full-fledged business led by an adorable yet firm lady. It's especially an awe watching her interact with customers, speaking at least 6 different languages just so each customer can feel recognized and welcome! It's truly a treat walking into her tidy, well-lit and sweet-smelling shop with wares from Dubai, Accra, Dakar and beyond. Visit, when you have a chance, to experience personalized and dedicated service! 5🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

    Every item I’ve used from Nana’s boutique has never failed me and there is a wide selection of options available so clients have an easier time finding products that fit their individual needs. Nana’s rapport with her guests is second to none and she always goes above and beyond to provide quality service throughout the shopping process. Highly recommend giving this shop a visit!

    Well priced Quality products! Still no wear on kitchen items(2+ years later). The owner makes shopping an experience with suggestions and her funny personality. Check here for some of your everyday items before you go elsewhere.

    Nana is very very conniving ,manipulating, self-centered and extremely rude to her clients .She makes false promises which she obviously does not adhere to.I bought some items and she said she would mail them since i was visiting from out if town (I have a witness). Only to turn around and say she never said she would mail them and then sent me a long list of insults on whatsapp just because she did not want to keep to her word.DO NOT BUY from this shop unless you want to be insulted.Buy at your own risk.I am not the first person she has done this to.Apparently that is her normal characteristic.If there was a zero star i would give her zero.Total disappointment.I will give out the stuff i bought from her so i wont be reminded of the insults.Buyers be aware!!!!! Buy at your own risk

    Absolutely love this locally owned African Boutique & more! Great place for Jewelry, unique fabric prints, and Africana. Clothing selection appears to change almost daily, with a variety of styles, cuts, and designs. Nana is usually working the counter, and is an absolute pleasure to interact with-- she always makes an effort to get to know her clients, and make recommendations based on previous visits. At least from what I can tell. Great place to shop for people of all shapes and sizes, here's a pic to prove it :D. P.S. I'm pretty sure she speaks at least 3 different languages, so don't be shy to check it out if you're ESL!

    I passed the boutique late one night and the exotic beauties in the window drew me in looking as if they were Royals preparing to romance the city. And upon entering I found what I would imagine the elite to have adorning their homes. The owner Nana has traveled to the lands in which she sales the product of . Very nice atmosphere and prices are actually pretty good! You should definitely swing in if your looking for wedding or banquet warmers

    This is a gem of a store. Everything here is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also extremely functional! The best part is the owner Nana is an entire adventure to encounter. She is very intuitive and knows just what you need- meeting her is always a blessing
