Polka Dot Divas Moves for More Space

The sassy store is staying in Occoquan, but the store owners want to grow their inventory.

When Polka Dot Divas across the street a few days ago, owner Julie Marshall was kind enough to do a quick Q&A with me about the move.

Why did you decide to move the Polka Dot Divas?

We got to the point that we had no room to grow or bring in new product lines.
