Hello there, shoppers! How about this glorious weather we’re having this week?! Seventy-seven degrees and sunshine on Friday … I’ll take that! The only problem: With all of the new tenants coming to Tysons Corner Center, we”re going to want to spend some serious time indoors, too–perhaps during April showers.
This week the mall announced eight new stores and restaurants, with most to open by June! And, boy, there are some biggies!
First, opening this month is Eyebrow Designer 21, a salon formerly of Alexandria; and Papilio, an Italian boutique specializing in hosiery and legwear, will open in April.
May will bring a bounty: Intimacy, a bra boutique offering complimentary lifetime alterations and an unparalleled selection (over 900 sizes); better-known stores Bose, Ecco and Swatch; and Catimini, a sophisticated French clothing store for kids.
Then things really heat up in June. For starters, Tysons will be home to an American Girl flagship store (looks like my nieces will have to visit more often). The month will also bring a new restaurant called Seasons 52 (a “fresh grill and wine bar” chain) and a Magic & Health salon/spa, offering accupressure/massage therapy and acupuncture.
Happy shopping!

PS. In some sad retail news, Penny Chocolates & Gelato of Fairfax will be closing at the end of the month.
