Between the Holidays Hours

Tattered Rose will be open shorter hours between Christmas & the New Year (yes, even shorter than usual!)

Wed - Fri 11-3
Sat 11-2

That's about all we wanted to say.

Oh.....and Happy New Year to all!

There are Miracles All Around Us......

....if your heart is open to seeing them.

"You may call me a dreamer, but I'm not the only one."
                                                                             John Lennon "Imagine"

Tattered Rose is sometimes a place for miracles.....whether it is old friends seeing each other for the first time in years while they are both shopping in the store, or the discovery of a brilliant & talented young singer who agrees to be a part of your in-store shopping events.....or what happened yesterday, quite by chance.

How many female carpenters do you know? I know exactly two, and they are both my customers & now friends. And they both ended up in Tattered Rose yesterday at the same time.

They were introduced to each other and I suddenly realized and said out loud to them "You are BOTH carpenters!" The look of recognition in their eyes was a thing to behold as they talked of similar career paths and experiences in their lives.

Even though they are from different generations, there was a kinship that we all recognized and the three of us chatted and laughed for quite some time, sharing stories and goosebumps. Kindred spirits enjoying our time together.

Before they left, contact info was exchanged and I am sure that they will be lifelong friends who happened to meet in Tattered Rose a few days before Christmas 2017.  It was a small but meaningful miracle to witness and I was so grateful to be a part of it.

Women are the best & the strongest when we stand together. This is something I believe with every fibre of my being and also what is behind everything I do for my customers and the store. Tattered Rose is here to help you express yourself through the clothing you wear and if we become friends at the same time, all the better.....the gift of friendship is something to be treasured that is beyond the store/customer relationship.

Now, these are the kind of miracles I adore! 

All the best to my wonderful customers.....not just for now but for always.

The last few days before Christmas....

These are the last days before Christmas and your shopping is probably winding down a bit as you search for those last few gifts for your wife, friend, niece, daughter.....and we have lots of perfect gifts for her in the store.

Plus, we have GIFT CERTIFICATES for those who are overwhelmed with choices. Let her choose what she would like. It's a win-win situation, no?

Tattered Rose will be open Thursday & Friday from 11-4 and Saturday from 11-3 but closed on Christmas Eve. because that falls on a Sunday and we have our own Christmas-y stuff to do.

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays to all.

With love, friendship and appreciation,

Holiday Hours & a Few Other Tidbits....

Hi Everyone....

Well, things are winding down these last 2 weeks before Christmas. It has been hectic for me personally but rewarding also. I truly appreciate people, this world, the wonderful & loyal customers of Tattered Rose and all that I have in my life, including my dear friends and my cats, all 4 of them.

Last Saturday night, we had an impromptu private shopping event in the store with a singer playing her guitar and singing some of her own songs in that beautiful, unique voice!

We, and I mean I, really enjoyed hosting this little event and plan to do more of them in the coming year. 

It is a great way to get to know your customers in a more social setting and just enjoy their appreciation of the store. It was akin to being in a huge closet left untouched found somewhere in Paris....and the ladies got to peruse and try on some of the prettiest clothing around.
We sincerely wish all of our customers & friends a most joyous Christmas, Hanukkah, Holiday season all the way into the New Year!

On that note, I thought I should post my holiday hours:
Now until December 23: Wed-Fri 11-4 and Sat 11-3
Dec. 24, 25, 26 Closed
Dec. 27 11-4
Dec 28 11-4
Dec 29 11-4
Dec 30 11-3
Dec 31- Jan 2 Closed
January Hours TBA

Thank you for being the best customers we could ever hope for.

Sincerely,

Carol
Tattered Rose


 P.S. This is a picture of a very happy recent customer who has exquisite taste, I might add. She purchased this outfit right off one of our mannequins to wear for a special evening coming up. It looks WAY better on her than on the mannequin!

Shopping in December

The strength of a warrior.....the softness of a kitty cat. 

We women have so many things to balance in our lives. Shopping shouldn't be a hardship....it should be pleasant, fun, inspiring and engaging......that's what we are here for.

With love,
Tattered Rose

Wish upon a star......

As we approach that day of the year again, I am thankful that I do not have a broken arm like I did last year, when 2 days before Christmas, I fell and fractured my humerus.......what an ordeal THAT was. I had to close my store 2 days before Christmas for about 7 weeks!

This year, Tattered Rose will be open right up until 3:00 pm on Saturday, December 23rd....for those last minute shoppers.

We have some wonderful items for gift-giving (table toppers, hats & scarves, jewellery, accessories, clothing, etc) as well as outfits waiting for you.

Wishing all of our customers a happy holiday season but we are also mindful of those less fortunate. I always give generously to the Salvation Army collections because a higher percentage of the money goes directly to helping those in need. 

May your wishes come true; what ever they may be.

Love & Peace to all.
