Need a prom dress at a consignment price? Try Julie's Walk-In Closet
With prom season gearing up, young Divas are hunting for that perfect formal gown. Even Divas out of high school may need a formal dress for a wedding, military ball, cruise dinner or sorority dance. Most of those frocks get worn only once, so a consignment shop is a great place to find a like-new dress and still have money left over for the limo.
Julie's Walk-In Closet in Brandon has more than 40 formal and semi-formal dresses in stock, with more coming in each week. Sizes range from 0 to 4X, with prices from $39.99 to $179.99. Most are under $100, owner Julie Pomeroy told us. For instance...
Above: Cache top, size small, $19.99. Cache skirt, size 6, $49.99.
Below: B. Darlin dress, size 5/6. Price $49.99.
Check out all the merch on the Julie's Walk-In Closet Facebook page. And don't forget to accessorize.
Julie's Walk-In Closet is at 759 W Brandon Blvd. But you already knew that. Call (813) 381-3846 for more info on the dresses or details on how to consign your old clothes.

Her drab days of monocolor outfits are over now, and she certainly knows better than to turn down free stuff. Her wardrobe mixes classic with quirk.

Kameel Stanley has never encountered a thrift store she didn’t like. Her mother taught her that the true value of clothes isn’t how much they cost, but how many outfits one can create from them. Having grown up in Michigan, she was delighted to learn upon moving to Florida that she almost never needed to wear socks or boots again. There’s a lot of turnover in her closet, and she’s obsessed with dresses, necklaces and wedge heels. She can be reached at (727) 893-8643 or

She can be reached at (813) 226-3400 or
