Divas Moving but Bubble Window Stays

Occoquan, Va. — It’s one of the most unique windows in Occoquan, and the business it belongs to is leaving the building behind for a new location across the street.

Polka Dot Divas opened in nearly four years ago by two diva-licious women, Julie Marshall and Kristyn Gleason, in Bavarian-style building with an iconic bubble window on its front. Recognizing the window’s popularity, the shop used it as part of their marketing on their website.

But the time has come for the shop that specializes specialty gifts for women, no make that for divas, is moving into Occoquan Antiques which is going out of business.

“It is very exciting we can’t wait to have two large windows, and have Steve Lippert of Any Ideas set up his amazing displays for our product. The new location will give us the extra room we need now along with extra room to grow,” said Marshall in an email.

The store has a dedicated following, and many customers have been supportive of the move – especially since the divas are just moving across the street.
