On Monday morning, July 29, Ana Blair’s Boutique will open at its new location of 820 E. 1st Street.
As owner Vanessa Lazarz explains, the new building (2,000 square feet) is much larger than the store’s previous location at 2801 E Main St. (500 square feet) and was a good fit for that very reason.
“As our customer base grew, we just outgrew the space we had. We needed room to expand and here we will have plenty of space to do that,”
As Lazarz alluded to, one of the first orders of business at the new location will be doubling her inventory of women’s clothing and accessories, especially Ana Blair’s logowear. While offering plenty of new items for customers, the full espresso bar will remain intact with the addition of a seating area for espresso customers and pre-packaged snacks. The additional space will also enhance the store’s ability to keep pace with shipping products ordered via its online store. Lazarz will also be delving into the realm of natural wellness with the addition of an infra-red sauna. “I’m very excited to add the sauna, which releases toxins from the body and promotes natural wellness,” Lazarz adds.
A grand opening at the new location is planned for Aug. 1. Ana Blair’s Boutique can be reached at (715) 409-0796, during regular business hours of 8-6 Monday-Friday, and 8-3 on Saturdays.
