Mannequins make wonderful pets because they quietly flaunt the latest fashions and don't need bones to love you unconditionally. Earn their ardor with today's Groupon: for $25, you get $50 worth of apparel, accessories, and jewelry at Marie-France in Thornton Park and Lake Mary. This Groupon is valid for non-sale items and excludes shoes.

At Marie-France, customers can peruse a wide selection of fashionable threads that add a dose of style much more effectively than crafting a pair of shorts from a Matisse painting. Specializing in providing cutting-edge yet uncommon fashions for 13 years, Marie-France offers an eye-catching mix of affordable apparel, accessories, and jewelry for the discerning shopper. Visitors can check out handbags ($35–$60), dresses ($40–$75), tops and blouses ($32–$45), novelty tees ($21–$35), and racecar-tire cocktail dresses to spiff up their wardrobes. A welcoming atmosphere doused in soothing lighting helps make every visit a relaxing experience. Additionally, a helpful staff of fashion-forward apparel aficionados will help customers pick out fetching items while making sure visitors don’t walk out wearing necklaces as flip flops.

Instead of wafting through a sea of grimy thrift-store blazers with rumpled tissues lodged in the pockets, visitors to Marie-France will get a wardrobe that smells fresher than a 16-year-old's bow-adorned first car parked on a driveway made of air fresheners. Don stylish threads while exuding effortless style with today’s Groupon.
