The story behind it
Unhinged Lifestyle Boutique started the way the best things do: with a mom who decided to bet on herself.
In 2016, Tammie Golden opened the doors of Unhinged in Senoia, Georgia — a boutique built on great style, strong instincts, and 20+ years of retail experience. Her daughter Nicole was still finishing college at the time, but she was there from the start: helping with buying, running the socials, and learning the business the way most people learn to swim — by jumping in.
When COVID hit, Nicole went all in. Her and her husband moved to Oklahoma, started managing the online store full time, and began building something of her own. She started buying her own inventory, doing craft shows and pop-ups across Oklahoma, and growing a following of women who came for the clothes and stayed for the community.
In March of 2021, Tammie was diagnosed with Stage 4 Glioblastoma — an aggressive form of brain cancer. She fought hard. And even in the middle of treatments and surgeries, she never stopped showing up for Unhinged. She believed in what they were building, and she made sure Nicole did too.
In December of 2022, Tammie encouraged Nicole to open her first brick-and-mortar storefront in Ponca City, Oklahoma — five months pregnant and determined, Nicole opened the doors.
In 2023, Tammie passed away. She loved her customers, town & employees so incredibly much. She made a huge impact on the town & will forever be remembered. Thank you for your love and support. This business was Tammie's love & passion and we hope make her proud!
Today, Unhinged operates two storefronts — one in Bartlesville, Oklahoma and one in Senoia, Georgia — plus a fully stocked online shop Nicole has poured herself into.
The name "Unhinged" was Tammie's choice. Nicole reminded her it meant "kind of clinically insane." Tammie said she knew. They went with it anyway. ♥
