B2B A Rhody Gem

What makes it a Rhody Gem?

B2B Retail & Luxury Consignment Boutique, or as the owners and sisters Lisa Ricci-DiSarro and Maria CP Russo recently renamed it, “B2B,” started as a consignment boutique for luxury clothing and accessories; three years later, it expanded to include retail finds as well. All inventory – whether new or “like brand new” – is high-end designer or designer inspired. While authentic famous maker handbags are the shop’s bestseller – “We have so many to choose from, we have to keep adding shelves,” says Ricci-DiSarro – the boutique also boasts over 200 gowns and dresses in their formal wear department, which includes footwear. The popular spot has lots going on with remodeling for new inventory, and is closed Sunday through Tuesday through March. That still leaves plenty of days to visit, and check in to learn about Sip & Shop parties, sales, and more. “The feedback we continuously hear is that B2B is a fun, happy, good-vibe place to shop,” the sisters say. “This is exactly what we strive to achieve.

Lisa & Maria

When a life-changing car accident upended Rhode Island native Lisa Ricci-DiSarro’s fast-paced, jet-setting career in Florida, she reevaluated her life and returned to her home state, setting an intention to focus on family and happiness. With sister Maria CP Russo, Lisa pursued her love of fashion (especially shoes and handbags!) and opened B2B RETAIL & LUXURY CONSIGNMENT BOUTIQUE. The shop has only grown, from all consignment to a blend of popular retail items, too.

“Together we designed a beautiful boutique like no other in Rhode Island,” says Maria, B2B co-owner with another career as a cosmetologist. “We make a great team – she's the Energizer Bunny and I bring her balance!” Glammed out with chandeliers, Prosecco, and mellow music playing, the sisters curate a space to relax and have fun finding outfits and pieces that “wow” you, choosing from hundreds of gowns, designer handbags, home accessories, jewelry, and more, sourced from over 600 consignors. This year brings new events (from psychic readings to fashion shows), a Shopify page, and continued charity work supporting local families in need.

Talk about the sisters doing everything “Back2Back”.

In October, Maria co-owner of B2B, a life-altering car accident. To date, she is still on the mend and will be just fine. With the help of her sister and partner, Lisa they are still doing everything together. “It has been a long healing process; says Maria and I am so grateful for all the love and support from family and friends. We have so many wonderful friends who have gone above and beyond in my absence to help at the Boutique. It is truly amazing, their support and dedication are something we will be forever grateful for.

I look forward to returning soon, (spring) and thanking you all in person for your help, support and all the well wishes”.

Wherever we go, whatever we do
We're gonna go through it together
Wherever we are, it's together
