Monkees of Richmond a great source of hip, modern styles for Richmond women

imageWalk into Monkees of Richmond and you’ll feel like this store has a bit of everything you won’t find anywhere else: dresses, clothes, shoes, and jewelry to die-for in a small boutique setting in Richmond’s West Broad Village. The designer names at Monkees  and accessories you won’t easily find elsewhere are remarkable. If you like Michael Kors, Badgley Mischka and other top-drawer styles you’ll love this store.image

Take a look at their “LookBook” and follow Monkees of Richmond on Twitter for the latest styles. Owner Lynn Butz loves to show you around so ask for her!

Monkees loves Richmond moms, too. In fact they’re sponsoring our Richmond Mommy Makeover Contest right now, so if you win (or someone you nominate wins!) they’ll receive a complete outfit valued up to $250 from Monkees of Richmond and a complete makeover from Salon del Sol, not to mention the $4,000 in prizes from our Richmond businesses who sponsor this contest! image
