Surrounded by family, friends, and representatives from the Madison County Chamber of Commerce and the village of West Jefferson, Emily Ollangg, owner of How About That Boutique in West Jefferson, cuts the ribbon at her new location.
(Posted Oct. 23, 2023)
How About That Boutique by Mrs. Ollangg has relocated to 24 W. Main St., West Jefferson. A ribbon-cutting and grand reopening was held on Oct. 21. The store was originally located across the street at 19 W. Main St.
The boutique specializes in women’s casual clothing in sizes small to triple-X. The store also sells spirit wear and can create custom graphic t-shirts.
In addition to clothing, customers can find a variety of hand-crafted gift items at the boutique. Owner Emily Ollangg rents out space to 15 to 20 vendors, most of them local artists. Among the items currently for sale are candles, laser engraved signs, embroidery, and garden flags. The store also includes space to rent for classes of all kinds.
Another service Ollangg offers is help in “making your Pinterest dreams come alive.”
“If you have an idea for a project and need some help, bring it in and we’ll see what we can do. If I can’t help, one of my vendors can usually figure it out,” Ollangg said.
How About That Boutique by Mrs. Ollangg has been in business since 2021.
