C O M Shop for Family, Feel Like Family Southern Belles: A Children’s Clothier When you shop at Southern Belles — named one of Mount Pleasant’s Best Children’s Clothing Stores — in addition to fine children’s clothing, shoes and exceptional gifts, including the bestselling Bogg Bags, Molony and her dedicated staff make you feel like family, safely greeting you at the door and creating an intimate, personal experience you can’t get at big-box stores. “Customer service is at the top of our list. It’s so important to us for our customers to feel welcomed and appreciated,” Molony said. The inventory selection at Southern Belles, both online and in the store, is second to none in quantity and quality. As an added perk, the store’s signature gift wrapping is complimentary. Not ready to shop inside the store yet? No problem. Molony has increased her online inventory since the pandemic began and offers shipping, curbside pickup and assistance over the phone. For those who prefer to try on at home, there’s a 24-hour approval process. “Small businesses are the lifeline and heartbeat of this country. Even if you can’t physically shop in the store, check to see if your favorite shops have a website,” Molony said. M ore than ever, it’s important to support small businesses within our community. “Local businesses have to work so hard to compete with big-box stores like Amazon and other online businesses,” Southern Belles owner Susie Molony said. It’s been hard for Molony to see shops around her shutter during the pandemic, but she credits her loyal customers for keeping her children’s clothing business going all these months.
