Local Boutiques to Shop Clothing & Accessories inn Corpus Christi

Shopping small is one of the most powerful and helpful ways to support our local economy, and maybe even more importantly, to champion the hardworking entrepreneurs who make the Coastal Bend a one-of-a-kind place to live. If you’re in the market for new clothing and accessories, these stores are a great place to start.

Lady Captain

If you’re after effortless chic with a touch of coastal flair, Lady Captain is the place. Everything on the racks is part of its own thoughtfully designed clothing line, created by co-founders Claire Fields Craig and Lauren Neal with the Gulf Coast woman in mind. From easygoing dresses to polished sets with activewear elements, each piece is made for days spent on the water and nights with friends. Bonus: The shop also carries Her New Tribe, a colorful ceramic jewelry line that adds just the right pop to any outfit.
