In 2007, Sandi McClain saw a need for more fabulous fashion in the Greenwood community combined with warm, kind and welcoming customer service. She created a sweet vision forever known as Sugar Boutique, "the fashion you crave".
Sugar first opened it's doors in April 2008 along the quaint brick street known as Waller Avenue in beautiful Uptown Greenwood. In 2015 the boutique moved to a larger, newly renovated space just across Uptown within the historic Textile Building at 334 Main Street (find us right next door to Howard's Deli!)
The boutique’s name is inspired by Southern women, who are both chic and sweet. We also believe fashion is a little bit like candy, right? You want it. You may even crave it constantly and once you "treat yourself", it's the ultimate satisfaction.
Sandi went on to create the sweetest community of over 49K Facebook friends, 23K TikTok friends and 17K Instagram friends. She received SC's SBA Young Entrepreneur Award in 2012 along with The Index Journal "Best Women's Clothing Boutique" multiple years, Uptown Greenwood's "Best Social Media" award multiple years and so much more...but above all the joy and blessings of meeting and serving so many amazing women over those 18 years is her biggest accomplishment of all!
Speaking of Uptown, did you know that Uptown Greenwood was recently named 1 of 15 Great Places in America by the America Planning Association? If you're ever in the area, we'd love for you to visit!
More recently in 2026, Sandi passed her pink glittery baton over to Alex Driver - present owner with a mission to SWEETEN (and GROW) Sugar beyond anyone's wildest dreams!
So get ready to sprinkle your closet with a little sugar.
We promise one visit will leave you craving more...
Hey, sweet friends! I'm Alex!
If we haven't met yet, I'm SO happy you're here...
I'm a wife, a mom to a very energetic and strong-willed little girl, and a Type B girl who loves structure (make that make sense). Most days you'll find me balancing motherhood, a never-ending to-do list, and at least one iced coffee.
What started as a wild idea in a group chat quickly became an opportunity that I knew I couldn't pass up. I get to spend my days curating collections, helping women find pieces they love, and building a community around great style. I feel like I need to pinch myself!! I've always believed that getting dressed should be fun. Not stressful. Not complicated. Just fun. The right outfit can give you a little extra confidence, help you feel more like yourself, and make even the most ordinary day feel special.
My vision is to create a thoughtfully curated shopping experience filled with elevated everyday styles, unique finds, and pieces that help women feel their best for every season of life.
More than a boutique, I want it to be a community where women can feel inspired, welcomed, and celebrated.
When I'm not at the boutique, you'll usually find me spending time with family, planning my next home project, scrolling for outfit inspiration, or chasing after my toddler.
Thank you for being here and for supporting this dream of mine. Every order, visit, share, and kind word means more than you know. I'm so excited for this next chapter and can't wait to continue dressing all of YOU in “the fashion you crave”.
xo,
If we were best friends, you'd know...
I never say no to an iced coffee.
I'll rearrange a display (or a room) ten times before I'm satisfied.
A cute outfit can change the whole mood of the day.
I'm always choosing bright and colorful when given the option.
I firmly believe every woman deserves clothes that make her feel amazing.
