Envy Me Fashions, 146 N. Glendora

Asking “don't you want your friends to ENVY you?” Lucas
and crew help customers pair the perfect outfits to special events or define
their everyday style.
Though the store had a loyal
clientele of shoppers, Lucas expanded the boutique’s offerings of clothing,
jewelry and accessories to attract teen-age and college-age shoppers, while
keeping an eye out for fashion bargains.
“I’ve always loved following all
the fashion trends,” Lucas explained. “I really love making people feel good
about themselves.”
