Happy New Year…

Thank you for one of the best years ever! We’ll be back next year with more random thoughts about everything! (you know we have an opinion on pretty much anything!)
In the meantime come visit us..we’re having a BIG SALE. This is the time to get that cute jacket you’ve been looking at for yourself …it’s marked 1/2 price
We’re open 10am to 3pm on New Year’s Eve and 12pm to 6pm on New Year’s Day!
In the meantime Be Happy and Be Smitten…and Happy New Year!

Thank you for not being in the mall…

Yes, that really was overheard at Smitten! We’re happy NOT to be in the mall and we hope that you would be happy not to shop in the mall! I preach about the importance of shopping local and supporting your local businesses a lot. Please know that this isn’t simply to have you shop only with us. I can’t stress enough the importance and value shopping with a small business has to your community’s financial health and development. How boring the world would be if the only retail choices we had were in the form of a mall. We try to have something for everyone in our sweet boutique…but we know that sometimes we just don’t. What we do know is that there are several lovely shops in Brightleaf and on Ninth St that just might have what you need. Trust us..we’ll send you in that direction.
So before you hop in that car…drive to the mall…fight traffic, crowds and over worked sales help… Stop and think about if you just might be able to shop with a local business, with great parking, and very appreciative sales help.
We thank you all for your support of Smitten. We appreciate you, your patronage and most importantly your friendship.
We have one more event this week…Smitten Men’s night! Make out your wish list and send them our way, Thursday December 17, 6pm to 9pm. We’ll guide them in the right direction…we promise.
Don’t forget our weekly Wine, Cheese and Retail Therapy, every Friday from 4pm to 7pm!!!
We look forward to seeing you soon…
In the meantime,
Be Happy and Be Smitten!

The Big Countdown

Yes, we all know how many days there are remaining until Christmas. Including all of us here at Smitten. We have been stocking the shelves with wonderful merchandise, and we are certain we have something for everyone in our sweet boutique.
We know the last year has been a tough one for many, in light of that we have brought in many items that are very affordable, but still a luxurious treat for any fashionista to receive as a gift. We want everyone to feel welcome here and we appreciate our customers and their support of Smitten.
We have a few more events before the year’s end. Tomorrow, Wednesday December 9, (5pm to 8pm) we have our last CFE (continuing fashion education). “So many parties and nothing to wear”. We’ll show you how to update last year’s party look with fun and affordable accessories. These events are our favorites! We’re ope until 8pm so drop by, let us show you how to wow the party…and maybe even get those last few gifts crossed off your list!
December 17th is Smitten Men’s Night. We’ll be sending an evite to all the spouses and significant others who NEED to come to Smitten. If you want your someone included on that list …send us an email with their email address! Don’t forget to let us know what it is you really want! We’ll take care of the rest!
Lastly…if you can’t make it to any of these events, stop by and see us on Friday night! We still have our Wine, Cheese and Retail Therapy from 4pm to 7pm…for those of you that have joined us know that it really is the best way to end your week!
We look forward to seeing you soon. Let us help make your holiday shopping easier…we gift wrap and ship.
Be Happy, Be Merry and of course Be Smitten!
