J&P BOUTIQUE OPENS OXFORD LOCATION
J&P Boutique, offering children’s clothing items, opened its new Oxford location at 1330 Barry Street, Suite A, on Friday, May 2, 2025.
Owner/operator Hayleigh Mellem said the idea came when she was having trouble finding matching outfits for her young daughter and son.
“When I had my daughter, I found there are tons of cute girls’ clothes in her size,” Mellem said. “When I had him a few years later, I wanted things to match, and that was hard to find.”
Mellem said after doing some research, she discovered a supplier from which to order those hard-to-find items, “and it just went from there.”
“We are thankful you chose to open a business in Oxford,” said Mayor Alton Craft. “If there is anything we can do for you, the city staff and I are ready to help.”
Mellem said the boutique is ready for Mother’s Day with a supply of dresses,
bubbles, sets, and rompers.
Open Thursdays and Fridays:
9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. to 5 p.m.
Saturday: 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
