See Boutique’s Fantastic Fifty in Cross Creek’s April Display
Smart Charlestown shoppers … get ready for a springtime treatl!!!
Ladies’ Boutique manager Peggy Romenesko has collected 50 fabulous purses, totes, wallets and coin purses, and some gorgeous accessories as well, to show off (and sell) in Cross Creek’s display case right through the month of April! In all sizes, colors, textures and styles, this collection is sure to offer even the pickiest shopper something to tickle their fancy. Items will be changed every week, and instructions for purchasing and picking up these beauties will be in the display case.
If you don’t need a purse, handbag, evening clutch or wallet, take a look at the Cross Creek collection anyway, just for fun; then head on down to the boutique, where spring really has sprung. The shop is bursting with spring apparel from skirts and dresses to jackets, tops, tees, and pants … including capris and shorts. And on a recent visit, I found two pair of the relaxed-fit pants I favor with the store tags still on them!
The current collection includes bold floral prints, perky stripes, stunning black-and-white patterns, and lots of very pretty solids, including sparkling white. Spring is a time of renewal, and the boutique’s racks and shelves present a real treasure trove of goodies for your summer closet. It’s been a lo-ooooooong winter, and a spring treat will make you smile!
The Ladies’ Boutique is located on the terrace level of Herbert’s Run, and is open on Tuesdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. We’d love it if you’d help us support the environment by bringing your own bag!
