Dress designer consignment boutique has opened its new store in the Ridgewood Shopping Center.
The Triangle's retail scene is shaking up a bit. This week marks the move of two local boutiques, plus the opening of a fourth location for another.
After two decades in Cameron Village, Main and Taylor has moved to new digs in the Lassiter at North Hills. Occupying part of the former Harris Teeter space, the new shoe and handbag store has 4,500 square feet of retail space with a Stuart Weitzman shop-in-shop - the first of its kind in the area. The store is open at 4421 Six Forks Road, Suite 114, Raleigh. 821-1556, www.mainandtaylorshoes.com.
Dress designer consignment boutique has moved from Glenwood South to a new location next door to Whole Foods in the Ridgewood Shopping Center on Wade Avenue. The store, which carries high-end consignment and boutique overstocks, will pick up more space for new lines and additional merchandise. Dress is open at 3528 Wade Ave., Raleigh. 699-6505, dressraleigh.com.
Scout & Molly's, the Raleigh-based boutique with outposts in Chapel Hill and Charlotte, is expanding again. The new Cary location of the store opens today in Stone Creek Village, 402 Ledgestone Way. The Cary shop will offer clothing, shoes and accessories by many of the same designerss, such as French Connection, Trink Turk and Michael Stars, carried in the store's other location. A grand opening party will be held later this month. For more information, call 465-7441 or visit www.scout andmollysofcary.com .
