Have you heard of Blush?
I just have to brag a little. This hidden treasure in Calabasas and Thousand Oaks caters to women who love to wear fantastic clothes at affordable prices. Since 2006, owner and my dear friend Sherry Thomas has been determined to create a relaxed and stylish atmosphere. She truly believes that “beauty is ageless” and gathers items reflecting the contemporary, sophisticated, yet comfortably chic elegance of LA. The weekly arrivals add to the growing inventory of pants, tops, dresses and outerwear. The staff prides themselves on attentive, personal service to give customers the right image with a perfect fit. I LOVE this store. Everything about it!!!
