Rowan Boulevard welcomes new shopping experience to Downtown Glassboro
Alicia Di Michele Boutique, a New Jersey-based fashion store owned by reality star Alicia Di Michele, today announced that it will host a grand opening for its newest location on Rowan Boulevard in Downtown Glassboro. All are welcomed to join Saturday, November 18th from 1:00 to 4:00PM.
The grand opening ceremony will include food from Lascala’s Fire and Mannino’s Cannoli Express as well as music provided by DJ Mike Galioto. Customers who stop by will also have the chance to play “spin to win” for store discounts and fun door prizes.
Ideally located, the boutique is one of the newest retailers to open its doors on Rowan Boulevard, a transformative multi-phase redevelopmentcomposed of a unique mix of luxury student and market-rate apartments, retail and office space, state-of-the-art classrooms and a multi-level parking garage. Only minutes from the center of Rowan University’s campus, the $400-million “public-public-private” development initiative, Rowan Boulevard has established a magnetic, inter-generational town center serving to anchor downtown Glassboro.
“I’m thrilled to open the doors of my boutique at a second New Jersey location, especially here in Glassboro,” said Alicia Di Michele, owner and curator of the boutique. “This is the perfect setting for my boutique—with active student-life and a busy downtown vibe.”
The boutique operates under the ownership of Alicia DiMichele of VH1’s hit realty show Mob Wives. DiMichele’s genuine personality, deep rooted morals and “family over everything” motto made her an instant favorite on Season 4 of Mob Wives, which has added to the success of the chain. Through Rowan Boulevard, Downtown Glassboro's burgeoning city-style walkable hub offers a myriad of dining and retail options, and will supply ample foot traffic past the boutique.
“We are so excited to officially welcome the boutique to Downtown Glassboro and celebrate its grand opening with the community,” said Ronda Abbruzzese, VP of Marketing and Leasing for Nexus Properties, the developer spearheading the Rowan Boulevard project. “As the Rowan Boulevard vision continues to take shape we’re seeing it become a true destination spot—attracting students, locals and visitors from the surrounding region.”
The boutique sells youthful and fashion-forward clothes for women ranging from sweatshirts, leggings and bodysuits to dresses, blouses and pantsuits. Customers can shop online at www.aliciadimichele.com, or in store.
