In many ways this lovely boutique feels like an art gallery with its white walls, minimal displays, open space and beautiful hanging pieces. Judith opened its doors in late April 2014 in Portland’s Old Port neighborhood. The curated collection of products focuses on women’s contemporary clothing, accessories and special objects. It’s the kind of place where you’ll find your new favorite cardigan, a unique pair of slides and one-of-a-kind earrings all at once. Carrying an assortment of all our favorite designers, this place is the real deal.

Designers Starr Hout and Laura Cramer founded Apiece Apart together in 2008 when a trip to Texas for their 30th birthdays had them wishing for a wardrobe of simple pieces that could be packed into any carry-on bag. Today their New York City-based line of contemporary women’s wear combines classic styles with modern silhouettes for a full range of easy, sophisticated pieces to mix and match.
