Construction ZONE

 

            (The above image is NOT of our building!)

The building that houses our shop has been under construction since Spring. This has meant no parking space for customers right now. There is still parking on the street.

It has just gotten real. As of yesterday, they are digging up the front of the building, right n front of our store. BUT, we are still accessible two ways:

1. Through the side where there are planks in place for walking on

OR...

2. Through our side door which is inside the building. You have to call us at (780) 488-1200 for access. We will let you in through the front doors to the building and into our not-so-secret side door. Think of it as an adventure.

We apologize for this inconvenience. With all that is going on with the pandemic this year, we sure didn't need to be in a construction zone on top of all that.....but we are. Once it is completed, the front of the building will be more beautiful than ever and our shop will be open in the usual way.

The inside of the store is still as inviting as ever, with new items popping up weekly. More home decor....more vintage.....more artisan and one-of-a-kind. That is the direction we are going in because this pandemic taught us something:

To enjoy the beauty in our homes and more meaningful clothing to wear.

Please don't hesitate to stop by.....we can't let a few construction guys stop us from enjoying the things we still like.

The Boyfriend Coat

The "Boyfriend Coat" is an old idea that most likely stems from the first time a man threw his coat over his lady's shoulders to keep her warm....at the expense of his own comfort.

THAT is the romantic part of the appeal of the boyfriend coat and why Tattered Rose has always embraced this style.

Duster coats, boyfriend coats, boyfriend blazers.....that is part of our repertoire. Looks great with your jeans but oh so feminine when juxtaposed with a pretty dress.

Closing Early Today

Tattered Rose will be closing at 3:00 pm today.

Open Saturday 11 - 3.

Happy weekend.

Dusty Colours We Adore

Dusty, murky colours are sometimes a mystery to those who observe them. This is due to the vagueness of colour....difficult to describe, almost like it isn't really one colour but several mixed into one muted shade of beauty that you just don't see in most stores.

We love these murky colours at Tattered Rose and have come to realize that not everyone can wear them (near their faces) But when someone can, it is a thing of pure joy to behold.

Dusty rose...murky lavender....softest dusty green.....faded burgundy.....mystic blue.....ghostly grey. These are some of the "colours" we are talking about and have always carried in the shop.

I think the description of "dusty" refers to the fact that these ordinary colours have been tinged with grey and faded to perfection creating the softest, most subtle and somewhat indescribable of colours.

Shades of Grey

In addition to reds, burgundy, green and black  for Transition/Fall 2020, we will also have a wonderful selection of grey clothing..............we adore grey!
