Vico's, a modern boutique for women, celebrated its grand opening in its new space and home at Mission Farms last weekend.  Kicking off the celebration, Stefanie Fullerton, Vico's owner, hosted a gathering at nearby Zest for martinis and appetizers.  Informal modeling piqued the interest of those in attendance and enticed guests to move back to Vico's to shop and enjoy music by Vince Cook, aka the Piano Man.   The Leawood Chamber of Commerce was on hand to cut the ribbon making it official. "We try to offer clothing, jewelry and accessories that you can't find anywhere else," said Fullerton, when describing her shop.  Having located from Hawthorne Plaza, Vico's is newly stocked with spring fashions and a beautiful interior.  Stay tuned for the installation of the new front door, scheduled to arrive any day from Mexico.  We understand it is something to see.

Visit Vico's Mon-Sat, 10am-6pm; Sun 12pm-5pm.

Visit the Mission Farms shops and restaurants to find an Easter egg filled with surprises.  Choose the right color and you could win free merchandise, deep discounts, cash, delicious food, and most certainly some chocolate.  Eggs will be handed out on Saturday, April 11 (while supplies last) in participating shops and restaurants.  Happy Easter from Mission Farms!

The staff at Xiphium loves styling humans and thought it would be fun to wash and style their four-legged friends, too.  Join in the Shampooch dog wash where stylists and friends from the Xiphium salon will be ready to splash lather and fluff your wagtastic loved ones while you shop and enjoy tasty treats throughout Mission Farms.  Photographers will be on hand for fun portraits and candid shots of you and your pets.  All proceeds benefit Animal Haven.
