Meet the Owner of Cypress Boutique Monterey!

Posted on August 11th, 2026 by Cypress Boutique Monterey

Hi, I am Mary, owner of Cypress Boutique. I am married to my wonderful husband, Brian, and together we have the sweetest baby boy, who fills our lives with love and joy every single day. We also have a dog named Max, who is very much a part of our family.

Mary's Business Journey

My business journey began in 2015 when I opened my shop as a streetwear boutique at 800 Lighthouse Avenue, Suite C in Monterey. During the Covid lockdown, I made the difficult decision to completely transform the business into what is now Cypress Boutique.

As the fashion industry changed and many brands became less affordable, I wanted to create a place where people could still discover beautiful, unique pieces at prices that felt attainable. By shifting my focus to handpicked thrifted, vintage, and carefully selected new items, I was able to continue sharing my love of fashion while giving clothing a second life.

Owning Cypress Boutique has been so much more than running a business. It has become a place where friendships are made, stories are shared, and people can find something that makes them feel confident and special. I truly love meeting each of you, helping you find that perfect piece, and creating a warm, welcoming space where everyone feels at home. I look forward to welcoming you into our shop for many years to come.

To Our Employees

I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to my amazing employees, Holly and Lamont: thank you for your kindness, hard work, dedication, and for caring for this little shop as if it were your own.

I also want to thank every previous employee who has been part of Cypress Boutique over the years. Each of you has left your own mark on this business, and I will always be grateful for the time, effort, and heart you poured into helping my dream grow.

To Our Customers

From the bottom of my heart, thank you to every customer who has walked (and will walk!) through our doors. Your support has allowed my dream to become a reality, and I will never take that for granted. Thank you for believing in us, supporting a small business, and allowing me to do what I love every day.
