Mermaids Purse is moving
If you have been in downtown Delray lately, you may have noticed that the Mermaids Purse has disappeared.
No, it's not downsizing. It's actually upsizing.
Cut 432, the trendy steak restaurant, is expanding into the Mermaid Purse's old space. The new location for Mermaid's Purse is 424 E. Atlantic Ave., just next door to Lemongrass restaurant. It's three times the size of the old place so the owners have been traveling to find merhcnadise to fill up the place.
Not only are they changing location, they are also changing the name to Posh!. The store will still carry fashion jewelry and hard-to-find handbags like Mary Frances. The ambiance will also be the same. Yes, as always, expect to hear Cher's voice blasting in the background and customers dancing while they stroll through the store.
The Grand Opening will be Thursday, May 7, in time for Jazz on the Avenue. A ribbon cutting event will be hosted and emceed at 8 p.m. by Latrice Royale. Complementary hors d' oeuvres and wine will be served. There will also be sales and door prizes.
