In the midst of gift buying, decorating, and making Christmas cookies come the fun parties and family get togethers. I have learned from being in the women’s clothing business for many years that this is one time of the year that we want to look good. Even though we may have things from years gone by we want a little something new. We want to feel special. Here is where Montrose shines. We have several, “one of a kind” women’s clothing stores with hand picked, unique merchandise. You can be assured that when you shop for clothes in Montrose you won’t see yourself “coming and going” in the chain store outfits that are the same across the country.

Are you going to a fancy company dinner or cocktail party? HOLIDAY HATS & GOWNS is the store for you. Owners Lillian and Karla have the best selection of cocktail dresses and gowns in town. You will love their customer service and cozy fitting rooms. You just may want to move in!

REVELATION TOPS will introduce you to “top therapy”. A phrase they have coined that describes how good you feel in a special new top, for less than half the cost of a massage. There’s nothing like a fun casual top with a touch of glitz on Christmas day and Revelation has lots of them. www.revelationtops.com.

ANNIE’S SCANDAL has been voted Glendale’s best for many years. When you visit you will know why. Owner Annie and her wonderful staff have a large store stocked full of all kinds of goodies, dresses, co-ordinates, shoes, and accessories to match.www.anniesscandal.com

If this is not enough we have TENDER TREASURES which carries the Flax linen line, FAYE’S comfy missy co-ordinates, and BELLA’S trendy items for all ages! Just to name a few!

We invite you to the quaint streets of Montrose where we will help you to look and feel your best. We make shopping fun!

P.S. Facebook fans can join the MONTROSE SHOPPING PARK and get the scoop on Montrose happenings! Merry Christmas!
