There is one more place to shop for fashion on The Avenue of Fashion. Simply Casual has opened on Livernois at Outer Drive, and owner Rufus Bartel will be one of the many area business owners busy decorating his windows for the University Commons Organization’s Holiday Windows Decoration Competition.
Inspired by the Macy’s New York City window displays, Livernois businesses will decorate their windows around the theme of “Home for the Holidays.” Neighborhood residents can vote for their favorite windows from Dec. 9-16, with the winner to be announced at UCO’s holiday celebration on Dec. 16. “We want to get some activity up and down Livernois, so that people can see what we have to offer,” explains UCO’s Kim Tandy.
Events planned for the Dec. 16 event include:
- Horse-drawn carriage rides;
- Specials and discounts at stores;
- Children’s activities;
- Photographs with Santa Claus at Motown Photography, located at 19320 Livernois;
- Caroling;
- Music at Baker’s Keyboard Lounge;
- Christmas tree lighting (at Outer Dr. & Livernois) at 6 pm.
