We are proud to have a family of amazing retail stockists across Australia, and we thought it would be a perfect opportunity to showcase the stores and the amazing women behind them. We sat down and had a chat with the beautiful Laura, owner of Coco & Blush Toowoomba and Pittsworth.
WHAT SORT OF STORE IS COCO & BLUSH?
Fun-filled store with fashion and giftware. We have something for all woman, from the little things to the formal outfits, things for the home.
WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO START YOUR BUSINESS?
Originally it was something to keep me occupied while I was on maternity leave which then bloomed into various businesses. The retail connection is what I love, especially sourcing goodies for everyone to enjoy.
HOW LONG HAS THE BUSINESS BEEN OPEN FOR?
Coco and Blush formed from my other businesses and has been open for coming up 2 years.
WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT YOUR BUSINESS?
Sourcing products, designing products and having a bright fun-filled store where people enjoy coming into. If it's for a chat, a browse or purchase. Our store is bright and fresh and just has a great atmosphere.
HOW DOES A TYPICAL DAY FOR YOU UNFOLD?
Unpacking loads of stock! Every day I get to unpack some boxes of gems. I'm usually front and centre of the store with my team so
I get to meet and talk to lots of people.
WHAT LITTLE THING IN LIFE GIVES YOU JOY?
My daughter is my number 1 fan and spending time with her making slime, cooking and chilling out really energises me.
WHAT PROMPTED YOU TO PUT AVARCAS AUSTRALIA ON YOUR SHELVES?
My mum! We stocked these babies in the Pittsworth store so when we opened in Toowoomba I knew I had to have them. Anything bright and glittery.. I have to have it!!
WHAT ARE YOUR FAVOURITE AVARCAS?
Wow, I can only pick one?......my neon orange!
