"A 15-year dream come true," is how Kelli Winder described the Valley Apparel, a quality used clothing store located at 218 S. Market St., South Williamsport, just off the Market Street Bridge.

Although Valley Apparel officially opened their doors for business March 9, they are planning a grand opening celebration in May.

The store is co-owned by Terry Robleski, Kelli Winder and Tessa Harris, a mother and daughters trio dedicated to providing the community with a place to shop, emphasizing excellent customer service and creating a relaxed atmosphere, said Winder.

Walking in the door, customers are greeted by full racks and circular displays of fashion-forward women's and men's clothes, shelves of lightly used – if not new – shoes, handbags, belts, ties; accessories like phone cases, watches, earrings creatively displayed in upcycled playing cards and necklaces, all at reasonable prices.

"We had a vision of what the store would look like, which has exceeded our expectations," said Winder, attributing their success and full inventory to the positive response Valley Apparel received in their short time being open.

Valley Apparel not only sells but purchases items from people in the community. "We purchase gently used, fashion-forward, clean clothing, shoes and accessories," said Winder, which creates a shop-local cycle that benefits the community. Shopping at and selling to Valley Apparel, customers can be glad their purchase is of quality and that their own beloved items can have a second life with someone else in the community.

"We really believe in being thrifty and thought this area really needed a store like this where people in the area can clean out their own closets and find some new great looks for a really great price," said Winder.

New Pandora apparel has arrived at Windtraders in Disney's Animal Kingdom. There are a few new pieces.

Pandora Apparel

Pandora Moss Wall Tank – $34.99

This tank is beautiful. The blue color is vibrant and eye-catching and makes the "moss wall" text pop. Pandora is written across the front, and designed to be colored like the Instagram moss wall. The front and back of the top have ventilation, which would make for a great top to wear to the parks.

Pandora Banshee Hoodie – $54.99

This front of this white zip up hoodie says "Pandora The World of Avatar". on the chest. The back of the sweatshirt has banshee artwork and says "Born to Fly." I think the best part of this sweatshirt is the hood with the banshee print inside.

The writing on the hoodie is very detailed.

Genetically Matched T-Shirt – $24.99

Flight of Passage is a fantastic ride. After you make your way into the gift shop, you may want to grab the "I've been genetically matched" t-shirt to commemorate your ride on a banshee.

Scream Like A Banshee Kids Tee – $17.99

There's a nice blue shirt for children that reads, "Scream Like A Banshee." I don't know if I'd encourage children to scream like banshees, but it's cute either way.

Sivako Rise To The Challenge T-Shirt – $34.99

This shirt is very creative. It combines "Sivako" on the side and "Rise To The Challenge" on the chest. It took me a few minutes to notice that "Sivako" was text and not just markings, but now that I see it, I like the shirt even more.

It might be time to grab one of these shirts and head over to the moss wall for some Instagram photos. What do you think of the new Pandora shirts?

Walmart is launching its first subscription box for apparel. And this one's for kids - CNBC

Posted: 15 Apr 2019 09:01 PM PDT

Walmart is finally getting into the subscription business for apparel.

The retailer on Tuesday announced it's partnering with Kidbox, a subscription-box company akin to Stitch Fix but focused solely on selling clothes for babies, girls and boys.

Now, Walmart shoppers will be able to purchase as many as six different boxes from Walmart.com, curated by Kidbox, each year. That means there's one new box available for each season, as well as for going back to school and the holidays, the companies said. Each box will include four to five items and cost $48, which Walmart says will be about 50 percent off the suggested retail price. Parents will have the option to either keep all the items in the box for no additional fees, or return everything and receive their money back. Kidbox curates the boxes based on a styling quiz that's completed before an order is placed.

The move comes as Walmart has been growing its apparel business through a handful of different approaches, including a partnership with Lord & Taylor, which allowed it to add premium brands to its website. It's also been adding more in-house brands for women, men and children to stores. And it's announced a slew of celebrity partnerships within the past few months for exclusive clothing and accessories lines, including one with comedian Ellen DeGeneres, and another with Kendall and Kylie Jenner.

Particularly within the kids' category, though, Walmart has been investing even further, adding hundreds of new children's apparel brands to its website, like Levi's and The Children's Place, while also redesigning Walmart.com so that shoppers can specifically browse apparel for licensed characters, or for activities like gymnastics and dance.

The Kidbox deal, similar to Walmart's tie-up with Lord & Taylor, is viewed as a way for the retailer to add more high-end brands to its website, as it continues to try to target more affluent shoppers and compete with Amazon. Some of the kids' clothing brands found on Kidbox's platform today include BCBG, 7 For All Mankind, Joe's Jeans and sock maker Bombas.

"Our partnership with Kidbox enables us to round out our offering with additional national and premium kids' brands," said Denise Incandela, head of fashion for Walmart's e-commerce business in the U.S.

With baby and children's apparel retailer Gymboree filing for bankruptcy in the U.S. and shutting hundreds of stores, analysts say there's room for one retailer — or a few of them — to step in and fill the void. Target has found incredible success with its Cat & Jack line of kids' clothing, which brought in more than $2 billion in sales in its first year in business. Gap tested out kids' subscription boxes, but it ended the effort after a 14-month pilot.

Stitch Fix has a children's category, now, while Rent the Runway — which offers apparel on a rental basis — just earlier this month announced it would be getting into kids' clothing. Foot Locker, meanwhile, recently invested $12.5 million in kids' clothing company Rockets of Awesome, which offers boxes to parents as a subscription, but clothing can also be purchased a la carte.

In 2014, Walmart launched a subscription box, Beauty Box, which sends out samples of beauty products, like face masks and make-up remover, four times per year, for just $5 per box.
