Show Time!

We're within a week of our fall fashion spectacular. Our Fall Fashion Show is this coming Sunday October 20th, at 2:00 p.m. Doors open at 1:30.   Thanks for all the early reservations.   We had to move the fashion show across the street. - Our fashion show will now be staged across the street in the theatre of  Joyce Parker Productions. It's the building across the street, looks like a bank, because that's what it used to be. Convenient and comfortable.

This relocation is definitely a good thing.  The theatrical facilities allow us to stage on an actual runway stage with theatrical lighting so you don't miss a thing! And, now, we're also able to accommodate more reservations! All good.

The show will feature the latest fall fashions from Alana Women's Apparel, and some fresh new ideas from Mr. Shoe.


After the show, we'll all go over to the Joyce Skylight Court for refreshments and a first-hand look at the new fashions. Show specials and a drawing will be held. A.L.Williams has graciously agreed to furnish entertainment with an acoustic version of his band, One Lane Bridge.

Here are some pictures from last Fall's show:

Summer Days give way to FALL FASHION FRENZY!

Here at Alana Women's Apparel, it's the most exciting time of the year.  The New Fall Fashions are arriving!  

We've just returned from Market Week, a glamorous (and exhausting!) week of trade shows.

At Market Week, we met with manufacturers' representatives, to see what was new for Fall 2013.



We've seen what's new for Fall, and I've selected the best items for those with Alana-tude!  
And now that I'm back, packages are arriving daily, with new exciting items. 


Please stop in, and be the first one to experience one of the new looks of Fall 2013.

And please make reservations for the Fall Fashion Show on October 20th.  I'm afraid we're not going to have enough seats this time for all those who would like to attend our most popular event.

ALSO, ACROSS THE HALL 
FROM ALANA, LEE AND DYANE HAVE ANNOUNCED THAT MR. SHOE WILL BE EXPANDING THEIR HOURS TO BE OPEN ON SUNDAY AFTERNOONS! THEIR SHOES ARE SO IRRESISTIBLY PRICED, I'M ADDING THEM TO MY WARDROBE ALL THE TIME!

Summer's Here and the Time is Right

This has been an exciting summer here at the Joyce Skylight Court. We've added two brand-new ways of  looking your best - fashionable shoes and eyebrow threading.


Alana - Affordable Cutting-Edge Fashion. 


Alana Women's Apparel is the place for you if you want to look your best without demolishing your pocketbook. 

New items are coming in every week, and of course, we are meeting with manufacturers in August trade shows - always keeping up to date!



Welcome Mr. Shoe!


Meet our new neighbors.  The legendary Mr. Shoe has opened a location in the Joyce Skylight Court.  Mr. Shoe has been an institution on Milwaukee's east side for years, and we are thrilled to have their newest store right across the hall from Alana.  They have the same philosophy - you don't have to spend a fortune to look good. Stop in and Lee and Diane can have you stepping out in style in no time!


Something to Raise Your Eyebrows About 

A new business called "Just Eyebrows" has opened up in the space next to the No.1 Chinese Restaurant.  Through the latest in fashion technology, Just Eyebrows Threading Studio offers eyebrow threading and other related services at very reasonable prices.

Chinese Cuisine

And as always, the No. 1 Chinese Restaurant is Bay View's #1 carryout destination. (Dining in is also an option!)  No. 1 Chinese Restaurant features the freshest ingredients blended skillfully into the most tasty Oriental dishes at affordable prices. 

NOW - MORE THAN EVER.  A stop at the shoppes of Joyce Skylight Court is more than ever about looking your best!
