About us

Hey girly pops! My name is Alli and I own AP & Company Boutique!  AP & Company is a women's clothing boutique located in Lake Ozark, MO with a goal of carrying classy, quality and affordable items. Here at AP & Co you will be able to find your favorite basics, athletic wear, statement pieces as well as everyday attire. AP & Co opened their doors to the brick and mortar location on July 30th 2022 and our website launched March of 2023. We are located by land at 1126 Bagnell Dam Blvd Lake Ozark, MO and by water on the 1mm. I frequently get asked what our store name stands for and I am always so excited to share the sentimental meaning behind AP & Company. Growing up, my Mimi (my moms, mom) always called me AP, as my full name is Allison Payton. I knew I wanted my boutique to have a personal touch to its name and what better way then to name us AP & Company! Mimi is quite the fashionista herself and going shopping with her was a regular weekend event growing up. It has been my dream for many years to open a boutique and I am so excited to share AP & Co with all the women in the lake area and now across the country online! I am dedicated to finding and offering the trendiest clothes on the market with a focus on quality and pricing. I am always researching and picking out trends in order to make sure all my AP & Co babes are dressed their best!! 

OUR STORE! Our store is one of the historical buildings on the iconic Bagnell Dam Strip at Lake of the Ozarks. We are just a short walk from the dam itself have a lake view right out our window. Customers can boat or drive to our store! Our town and even our storefront has been featured on TV shows such as Ozark, Lake Front Empire and Ozark Law. Fun fact, here at Lake of the Ozarks we have more shoreline than the state of California. 

 

OUR MISSION! AP & Company is an intentional curated selection of women's clothing, accessories, fine jewelry and gifts.  Our pieces can bring color and style to your wardrobe and everyday life! We work to create a fun and inviting storefront and website, where you can shortly escape the stress of everyday and enjoy good company and quality clothing.  AP & Company is best known for adding a pop of color to your closet, outstanding customer service and a warm welcoming environment. 

We also put a heavy emphasis on giving back to our community in the form of helping our local animal shelters. Ever since I can remember, dogs have been my first love and my favorite thing in the world. As I grew older I began to realize the desperate need for donating, volunteering and fostering shelter dogs. Through middle school and high school my favorite activity was volunteering at my local humane society. Then as I went through college and post college graduation I adopted both of my two dogs and fostered many dogs along the way. My two pups, Lady May (Black Lab/Blue Heeler mix) and Lasso Lou (Rat Terrier/Basenji/10 other breeds) are the inspiration behind our mission. We frequently do dog food drives, fundraisers for shelters and donate regularly. Check out the link below to donate!

OUR TEAM! Our girl gang at AP & Co is made up of the sweetest, most hardworking girls in all of Mid-MO! I could never run AP & Co without these gals. Emily (my sister) is the brains behind our website & inventory. Emery, is an incredible sales associate and beautiful model. Ellie and Rachel are also both wonderful sales associate we are lucky to have. Our mom is also a big help running order to the post office, covering shifts and delivering Starbucks, LOL!

SOME MORE FUN PICTURES WE WANTED TO SHARE!

We often host bachelorette parties or girls nights at the store. These are some of our most favorites days we get to spend at the shop. These parties are always full of best friends, laughs and memories in the making!
