Sassy Junk Boutique

the Local Light

No. 18

Sassy Junk Boutique has brought affordable and adorable retail options to the Southwest Missouri area for 10 years now. Sassy Junk Boutique owner, Erica Barclay, is the definition of a ‘Boss Babe’ with loads of ambition. Beginning in 2011, Erica bought a tanning salon and slowly added an inventory of accessories for clients to shop. The accessories went over well and Erica enjoyed the retail aspect of the salon, so clothing options were soon introduced to the Sun Glo Spa. Pursuing her new found passion for retail, Erica began setting up inventory at shows around the area and opened two new boutique locations. Sassy Junk Boutique was born and business began booming.

Specializing in screen tees and casual boutique clothing, Sassy Junk Boutique takes pride in their affordable prices. These low price points are possible because Sassy Junk Boutique designs, bleaches and prints all of their own screen printed products by hand. Making the bulk of their inventory themselves may take a tad longer than larger companies, but ensures a better quality product for a lower price. Sassy Junk Boutique provides screen printing whole sale options for surrounding boutiques, creates bulk custom orders and has amazing referrals for clients with smaller screen printing order requests.

While Sassy Junk Boutique has grown into a large boutique and trusted name with more than 50,000 active online shoppers and thousands of orders weekly, business was small and slow when it first started in a salon storefront 10 years ago. Erica has put a lot of love, hard work and tons of time into growing her business and it shows. Because of her experience, Erica loves supporting small business owners and encourages new entrepreneurs to not give up— one day it is all worth it and it “just clicks”. Don’t give up on your dreams, they can come true.
