Anderson (daughter) and Gloria
Anderson (mother) are passionate about their love for fashion and sharing it with others! Along with women’s apparel, they also carry a variety of shoes and accessories to complete any ensemble! Trendy Twist has its roots as a wholesale market that started in
Atlanta back in 2011. Seven years later, these brave women opened up their first storefront. In 2019, they renovated their current space into the posh boutique it is known for today. After having to temporarily close their doors during the 2020 pandemic, Shereca and Gloria were nervous as to what this could mean for their business, but with the help of online sales and gracious state grants, they were able to continue making sales and reopen their storefront months later.
Whether you’re looking for a comfortable outfit to wear to your next dinner party with friends or cocktail attire for a more formal event, Trendy Twist has you covered!
They offer clothing for a variety of body types and lifestyles, selling everything from closet staples to gorgeous statement pieces.



They also carry an array of causal sandals to pair with your favorite capris or sundress, as well as heels to compliment your best evening attire. You’ll find everything from sequined cocktail dresses to comfy cardigans on the racks at Trendy Twist. Some of their bestselling, well-known brands include Ivy Jane, Uncle Frank, Sanctuary Clothing, and Lucky Brand. Gloria’s interest in fashion first came about right after high school when she worked at a downtown department store, surrounded by other highfashion retailers. It wasn’t unusual for her to swing by and pick up a new outfit after work from a neighboring store. As Shereca grew up and moved to Atlanta for college, she was introduced to high-end designers and also fell in love with fashion. The ladies found themselves switching clothing and accessories with each other for multiple occasions. It was this act of swapping styles that sparked the idea for their boutique that would cater to women of all age ranges! Both Gloria and Shereca prefer timeless, classic outfits that never go out of style.
Not only is their clothing exceptional, so are the souls behind the business!
Both Shereca and Gloria are ready and waiting to greet you with big smiles and sweet personalities. If you stop by, you’ll be sure to leave Trendy Twist with two new friends and a greatlooking outfit! They love interacting with their customers, getting to know them both in person and on their social media page. Helping other ladies find their style is their expertise and they love offering up fashion tips every Tuesday on their Facebook page. While most people may think that working with family members would be stressful, Gloria and Shereca say they have found the perfect balance between the two of them. Gloria’s love for fashion and Shereca’s knowledge in business entrepreneurship helped them become an unstoppable, successful duo! They both can agree that while there have been moments of opposition along the way, they’ve been able to settle on common ground at the end of the day. Even after they leave the store after a long day of working, they still make time every week to enjoy family dinners together prepared by Gloria, who enjoys cooking in her free time. Even during the time that Shereca moved away to Atlanta, they still made it a point to be in constant contact with each other throughout the day via texts or phone calls, or visits on the weekends – which, of course, involved shopping! Gloria and Shereca can confidentially state that anybody who comes through their door will leave as a genuinely satisfied customer. When assisting their customers, they will take into consideration everything- from clothing styles that will best accentuate their body type to a color palette that is the most flattering for an individual. They want to ensure their customers leave their shop feeling happy and fabulous! Not only will the clothes look great, but also their clothing quality is exceptional. What do you do with a favorite outfit? You wear it and show it off every chance you get! Their clothing will hold up to this task for years to come! As Gloria words it, “You will outgrow your outfit, long before your outfit outgrows you!”
Shereca and Gloria warmly welcome you to stop by their storefront located at 910 S Cashua Drive, Florence. For those still trying to maintain social distancing, they also offer curbside pickup, as well as online shopping on their website (www.trendytwistboutique.com).
