Holiday hours for The Fashion Safari

 Wishing everyone a bright and shiny New Year filled with much joy, laughter, love, and happiness!


Great news! We'll be open normal hours this holiday weekend and will be putting lots of fabulous new arrivals out on the sales floor in all styles and sizes.

We'd sincerely appreciate it if our consignors refrained from bringing items in on those days, so that we can focus on providing excellent customer service to our holiday shoppers.

We have a winner!

 Congratulations to Samantha Mendez, winner of this Brand NEW Diamond Cluster 18" Pendant Necklace in Sterling Silver with a retail value of $200.00.


Samantha was in tears when she found out she had won and was so excited when she stopped by The Fashion Safari to pick up her prize! Make sure you're "following" us on social media and opening your emails for your chance to enter future contests!



Counting down the days to a bright NEW Year ahead!
 
The past year has flown by so quickly, and it was a difficult year for many of our clients who were affected by numerous circumstances, including the devastation from the hurricanes. Life has it's ups and downs. Good times, sad times, and everything inbetween.

But we're feeling quite optimistic that the New Year will bring hope, joy, love, laughter, and brighter days ahead. Let's not sit back in the shadows and simply "wait" for things to happen.

Start today by making a positive plan of action to make the next year your best ever. Don't settle when you don't have to. Don't believe everything you hear. Trust your intuition. Treat yourself to something special without feeling guilty about it.

You deserve to live your best life ever and only YOU can make that happen! So grab a note pad and start writing that positive plan of action (baby steps are fine) and grab the courage inside you and make this shiny New Year your best ever!

A Sincere Thank You from The Fashion Safari

 Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate the holidays with us on Wednesday evening. A fun time was had by all and we’re so proud to be a part of such a wonderful community of lovely women who make us smile each and every day.


The entire staff was on hand for the event, including Rae, Dawn, Rose, Sherri, and Maryellen, and we enjoyed chatting with you and helping you look your best this holiday season. And yes, there was even snow falling right outside our door (thanks to Maryellen’s snow machine!).






And who doesn’t love a good old-fashioned ugly/adorable sweater party?


Congratulations to Sam, winner of our Ugly/Adorable Sweater Contest. We have a $25 Gift Certificate waiting at the store for you Sam!



And a special thank you to Sophie’s Circle Dog Rescue and Pet Food Pantry for coming out and sharing their amazing gifts for pet lovers.


Sophie's Circle Pet Food Pantry has distributed thousands of pounds of food to Volusia County animals, and their owners, who are in need over the last several years.


A pet owner facing financial hardship, being able to get assistance with feeding the animal, can be the difference between the pet ending up at a shelter or not. They want people and pets to stay together! And they can't do this without the kind donations from their supporters


It’s great that all the proceeds from the sale of their items on Wednesday evening went towards saving our furry friends and families in need. We loved partnering up with such a wonderful organization and hope that you will continue to support them also.

Say Yes to the Dress

COVID took a toll on fashion over the past few years and countless individuals grew accustomed to throwing on a t-shirt and comfy pants and just stopped dressing up altogether. How many times can you honestly say that you've worn a dress in the past few years? For me, that answer is probably about 500 times. Dresses are my everyday outfit - not just for special occassions.


In a world full of shorts, capris, jeans, and athletic wear for everyday, why would I choose to wear a dress? The answers are simple.

For starters, instead of hiding your body, dresses celebrate it and flatter in the best possible way. You should feel good in what you wear and it should fit in a way that makes you feel like your best self. 

 Next, a dress is easier and more comfortable to wear. Just slip it on and you're done! And the best part is that dresses keep you cooler in the summer and are way more affordable (if you know where to shop).

The Fashion Safari currently has hundreds of dresses in all sizes for prices starting as low as $9.00 each. The average price is right around $18.99 and that's way more affordable than separates. So isn't it time you decided to take it up a notch, get an instant boost in confidence and femininity, and say yes to the dress this summer? Stop by today and try one on for size!

Happy Earth Day!

 For the past 50 years, Earth Day has been celebrated by billions of people around the globe, annually every April 22, to join together in promoting awareness for the health of our environment.


What does Earth Day mean for consignment? It has a lot to do with consignment. Consignment is about sustainability. Did you know that the fashion industry is the third highest polluting industry in the world and the second largest consumer of water?

Earth Day is a big deal to us because The Fashion Safari is all about recycling every single day. By consigning and shopping with us, you're really doubling your recycling efforts.

We invite you to come celebrate with us on Friday, April 22nd.  Shop responsibly, help the planet, and look amazing!
