When you’re ready for a fresh look, Lakeside Village’s new businesses that opened this summer have your back (and your nails, and your eyebrows). Plus, there’s even more to look forward to coming this fall.

J. Crew Factory opened in May near Fish City Grill with a store full of discounted fashions for the whole family. Get a peek inside for what to expect — no perfectly rolled sweaters needed.

Waxing the City also offers a membership program with monthly discounts + birthday rewards.

Bare with us. Across the roundabout is Waxing the City, where anyone can go smooth with face + body waxing services, plus brow tinting, lash lifts, and skin treatments.

Ready for the finishing touches? Sola Salons’ Lakeland location opened on the second floor above Famous Footwear. So far, 15 cosmetology pros have rented suites, from hairstylists to estheticians.

This autumn, more bizzes will fall into new locations. The Little Gym kids’ gymnastics center is teasing a fall opening, and Nordstrom Rack will hold a grand opening on Thursday, Oct. 23.
