Across the street and just a couple blocks from L’s On Augusta Consignment store, Augusta Street and the Lewis Plaza area will see major transformation.

The store owners, Angie and Ann know most by name and chat with the ladies about their families and work. I’ve watched and learned from these ladies for nearly a year as I’ve worked the front counter and seen them devote themselves to meeting their consignors’ and customers’ needs. Whether it was shopping alongside a customer to find that perfect dress for a banquet, helping new shoppers navigate the store, giving advice on what is flattering and what isn’t {they’re honest about it too!}, patiently and humbly listening to complaints, or providing detailed sales reports to consignors, they joyfully serve every single woman that walks through their doors.
