MINT + BASIL earns its spot on Phillips Avenue by doing something most boutiques can't pull off: making a shopping trip feel like an actual discovery. The kind where you walk in for a gift and leave reconsidering your whole wardrobe.
The store curates and sells contemporary women's clothing, fashion accessories, and home goods — layering statement pieces alongside everyday wearables and gift-ready finds. It serves the woman who wants to shop locally without compromising on style, whether she's refreshing her closet or hunting something worth wrapping.
Downtown Sioux Falls has no shortage of chain retail, which is exactly why independent boutiques like this one hold ground. Mint + Basil selects with a point of view — you're not sorting through a rack of maybes. That specificity is why locals come back, and why it draws browsers from outside the Phillips Avenue corridor who want something with a little more intention behind it.
