About UsYour Friendly Fashion Destination
We are Scout & Molly's Kiawah. We truly believe that no one style fits all and that we have to have choices for our customers so that she can find something that makes her feel beautiful and comfortable. Our stylists can help our clients step outside their comfort zone, find new trends and approaches to their style in a comfortable environment.
Our team believes that we should always treat each person that walks through our doors like we want to be treated and we strive to do that each and every day. We take our clients seriously. They become like family, stopping to see what’s new and to catch up with their favorite stylist. We hope that our clients feel like they are shopping in their best friends closet.

I absolutely love what I do for so many reasons! Managing a corporate store has given me the opportunity to be “entrepreneurial” within my management role. I am very fortunate to have complete autonomy to run this store as my own. And of course, I adore all of our customers! We love it when they just stop in on their way to the grocery store to see what’s new and to say “hi!”.

Tell us about yourself and how you got started with Scout & Molly’s?
After moving to Charleston, retail became my 3rd career quite by accident. After a successful real estate career and sales & marketing career, I thought I was going to slow down. Not a chance! I started working part time for a small local clothing store. Before I knew it I was managing the store. When it was time for a change, as many people do, I turned to Indeed….and as they say… the rest is history! I feel very fortunate that I landed with Scout and Molly’s at Kiawah, I truly love my job!

When you’re not at Scout & Molly’s, what can you be found doing?
Now that I am a grandmother to a sweet baby girl, I spend as much time with her as I can. The rest of my free time is in my garden. If I am not there, I can be found in all the local garden shops looking for things to plant in my garden. I do a morning “garden walk” with my coffee and an evening garden walk with my wine. It puts every day in perspective for me.

If a customer was visiting your city, what’s the one place you’d say they have to visit?
We are very fortunate here on Kiawah to be minutes from the Angel Oak Tree. It is a live oak tree that is between 400 and 500 years old, stands more than 60 feet high and 28 feet in circumference. It produces shade that cover about 17,200 square feet. It is breathtaking and a must see for anyone visiting Charleston!
