Tamara has three passions in life: family, fashion and horses.

She says, 鈥淚 get my business drive and commitment to community from my father, my fashion sense and my sass from my chic mom, and my love of horses from them both.鈥 Encouraged by her parents to take risks and follow her heart, Tamara ran a handbag business for years during a time when she says that niche businesses run by women were exceedingly rare.

鈥淚 travelled the globe solo, seeking inspiration in beautiful and unusual articles to share with my customers.鈥

Over the years, Tamara has learned that even the darkest cloud has a silver lining if you know how to look for it, and she attributes her success to her eternal optimism.

When it comes to style, Tamara likes a nicely tailored fit, novel fabrics and quality workmanship, with equal measures of innovation and classic style.

Today, as the owner of Wear It鈥檚 At Boutique in Mill Bay鈥攁 trendy women鈥檚 fashion store鈥擳amara says she鈥檚 older and wiser, but she鈥檚 still always seeking inspiration.

鈥淚 get my most creative ideas when riding my beloved horse, Shalimar. Riding is play therapy for me, and I strive to bring that playfulness into my business. Nothing makes me happier than encouraging customers to try new styles, accept honest feedback and move out of their comfort zones. When they leave excited and looking their best, that鈥檚 the icing on the cake!鈥
