A new shop selling fashion jewelry has opened in Garapan with owner Sun Qi opting to meet the trendy needs of teenagers.
Oops Boutique is located on the second floor of Tun Kiku’s Building next to Beauty Facial and just above Herman’s Bakery along Middle Road.
“The reason we opened this shop is because people are so focused on what adults need but sometimes forget how the younger ones who don’t have that much money can afford fine accessories,” said Qi.
Qi said that most of their merchandise are imported from Korea and they opted to call it Oops Boutique, “because we want the customers who are wearing our accessories to impress people the first time they see them.”
Since opening last Oct. 1, Oops Boutique’s most popular items are its unique earrings and one-of-a-kind bracelets.
“Most of our products are sterling silver and some are gold-plated. All of our products have price tags and from $1.99 to $35.99,” said Qi.

Asked what it’s like to open a business during the COVID-19 pandemic, she said one thing’s for sure it’s quite challenging.
“Well, overall. It is really tough to open a business during the pandemic. And also as you know, everything in increasing includes utilities, rent, and gas. But we still decided to open it anyway because we feel that young people need to have some options to shop for,” she said.
While Oops Boutique currently has no promotions during its first month of operations, Qi assured everyone that they will be offering discounts in the upcoming holidays.
“For now we don’t have any promos going on. But we will have promotions on the upcoming holidays, Halloween, and Christmas. And the best part is that we have the merchandise just for the holidays.”
Oops Boutique is open everyday from 10am to 7pm. For more information, call 670-989-1989.
