We had the good fortune of connecting with Terri Pacifico and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Terri, what habits do you feel helped you succeed?
Anything worth wild in your lifetime is never an easy ride. You will always have trials and errors along the way. As long as you are willing to learn and never continue to make the same mistakes, you will always succeed. Everything is a learning process, there are no shortcuts or easy answers but through Drive and true passion for what you set out to do will give you the most success. It’s the outcome from all your hard work that gives you true fulfillment

What should our readers know about your business?
My name is Terri, and I am the founder and owner of Devinity Boutique. I am a fashion stylist I create a style through fashion for all women. I set out to create the best look to give them confidence encouragement and to have them feel as good as they look. My brand is made in Italy it offers a unique style great quality and most of all a perfect elegance for all figures. I have always had a passion for encouraging and advising women to feel good about themselves. After being a nurse for many years while that was very fulfilling, I had always had a passion for fashion and helping women to look as good as they feel. So, I began my journey in March of 2021 and set out to start my own business as a fashion stylist slash women’s clothing boutique owner. I left my full-time career as a nurse to fulfill a longtime dream. What better way to have the best of both worlds the enjoyment of making those around me smile and creating a style for every story. I started off attending weekly and monthly markets around town encouraging and styling those around me. It wasn’t long before I was approached by a businessman who was willing to take a chance on a small business like mine. He was opening a location inside a brand-new mall that he himself had just opened in hopes of helping small businesses in the area. This was how I was able to open my first store location in such a short period of time. Dreams come true through passion, drive, and sometimes a little help from others who may have walked your steps before you.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I am a huge fan of our beaches east coast west coast it doesn’t matter. There is where you can just disconnect from that hustle and bustle of daily life. Just spending time with family & friends is most enjoyable. We are also big fans of sushi restaurants around town we love them all, each one has their own special touch and not all menus are alike.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
My husband and I run this together. We have two children they are our inspiration and power for all we do. I started this adventure 2 years ago. I had a dream to inspire, give confidence and make a difference in the lives around me. I had no idea how things would turn out, with persistence and motivation and god by my side I went for it.
