Around the corner from
that someone is you. Step inside to feel a welcoming familiarity and a comfort in a place where everywhere you turn there's something new to be discovered.
Petunia's offers a sense of place where, perhaps, you even discover a little bit more of yourself. Whether you bring a sense of fashion or want to cultivate a unique statement of who you are, this is the perfect place to begin. It's something old, something new, something perhaps borrowed, minus the blue, that, when combined together, create a sense of you!
Wander the rows of carefully chosen suits, slacks, tops, dresses and coats. Peek into little cupboards to reveal baubles and beads and fabulous vintage leather handbags. Try a hat, a shoe, a scarf, a belt and swirl around in front of the strategically located mirrors to see new sides of yourself. Want a little guidance? Proprietor -- or top petunia to those in the know -- Lauren Handel's greatest joy is to help other women find that perfect item or outfit that enables them to look great and feel great.
The inspiration for Petunia's came from a little lady who never realized that she was a gift to the world. Big, beautiful blooming petunias filled the flower boxes that she planted each spring under the tiny windows of her home, which called to people from miles around to come, visit and brighten their days with a magnificent vision of color and light. Petunia's was named in honor of this woman and to remind others that we, each of us, in our own way are a gift to the world, whether it’s a flower that we plant, by cultivating our own sense of style or just by blossoming and being, uniquely, who we are.
When a shopper walks out the door, whether she discovered that one-of-a-kind find or simply received a warm “hello”, she may also find her day a little brighter and feel welcomed just for being herself. That's the gift of a visit to Petunia's.
