This month The Wilmington Post had the pleasure of putting the spotlight on one of the most chic and avant garde boutiques in Wilmington; Island Passage Elixir. A sister store to Island Passage located at Lumina Station, Island Passage Elixir is located downtown on Market Street, home to some of Wilmington’s most unique and trendy stores. The stores manager Hannah best describes the stores style as “a trendier and more soho chic version of their main store island Passage”. Some of the trendy well known designer brands found here are Free People, Luluvia, and Ella Moss. The boutique also houses a fabulous jewelry collection with tons of unique necklaces and earrings; each piece different from the rest. The cute clothes and accessories are what drives customers to this store, celebrities too. One tree Hill’s Bethany Joy Galeotti shops at Island Passage Elixir not only for her character played on the show, Haley Scott, but for her own personal wardrobe. The boutique has a variety of price points to fit all of their customers’ needs, and even lower price points at their consignment store Return Passage located a couple blocks away on Grace Street. The girls at Island Passage Elixir are very friendly, fashionable, passionate, and knowledgeable about their boutique, and can’t wait for you to stop by! They are located on 4 Market Street, in downtown Wilmington.
