IF it’s a unique, quality outfit you’re after for mum this Mother’s Day, Pampen’s Boutique is where your search should end.

For the past decade and a half Margie Warnett, owner of Pampen’s Boutique in Mooroopna, has been sourcing beautiful women’s smart casual, business and evening wear.

With a long history in retail, Margie knows quality and is proud to provide top fashion labels like The Ark, Marco Polo, Seven Sisters, Yarra Trail and Joseph Ribokoff for after five wear, weddings and formal occasions.

Margie said, “The store is currently stocked with the latest winter fashions. Blue has taken over from black this season, particularly navy, but we’ve seen the full spectrum right through to pale blue.

“Lime is also very popular at present. And charcoal and black remain core colours for winter.”

But it’s not just the clothing that might tempt mum, as Pampen’s also has a range of accessories, such as jewelery, stunning, colourful scarves, as well as body care products and candles.

“If you’ve never been into the store, we welcome you. We can offer fashion advice and provide you with the right accessories to pair with your new outfit.

“We love it when our customers just stop in to have a chat,” Margie added.

Pampen’s Boutique is open from 9am to 5:30pm, Monday to Friday and from 9am to 12pm on Saturday mornings. Drop in and see Margie Liz, Jan and Judy at 112 McLennan Street Mooroopna, phone 5825 1401.

Pamper your mum with a beauty treatment IS your mother deserving of a decent pampering on Mother’s Day? Why not book her in for a session at Nu Beauty Therapy, with new owner, Rachel Scrimizzi or one of her friendly staff?

“I did my training over 17 years ago, had three children and was lucky enough to be a stay-at-home mum. I returned to the beauty industry over five years ago, and have just taken over Nu B eaut y Therapy since late November last year,” Rachel said. “ W h e n p r e v i o u s o w n e r , Tr a c e y Marsden announced that she was stepping out for family commitments and offered the business to me, I thought the timing was right, as my children are now at a more independent age.”

“We found that clients were very happy that existing staff were staying, as we had

all built friendships with them.”

R achel h as put her ow n p erson a l touches into the salon, by renovating, cha ng ing the colou r scheme and, in general, creating a warm and inviting feel to the salon.

Rachel hopes to build the clientele into the f ut u re, concentrating on delivering 100 percent on all services and introducing other exciting, new concepts in the future.

Nu Beauty Therapy provides a variety of waxing, microdermabrasion facial treatments, tinting, tanning, massage, manicures, pedicures and make-up for all occasions.
