Hi, my name is Chrissy Singer and I’ve recently opened a clothing boutique in Rangiriri called Just For You Clothing Boutique, offering a range of clothing for both women and men. New stock arrives every two to three weeks, with winter pieces starting to come through from next week.
I decided to open the shop while working at Mojo Design Store, when the two front rooms became available for rent. This excited me because I could see there was a need — not only for locals, but also for the many travellers who stop in. With the expanding housing growth in Te Kauwhata, as well as the busy foot traffic visiting the wonderful Fixate Café, the locally made and repurposed craft shop Thrifted Secrets Co-op, and the lovely historic Rangiriri Hotel, it felt like a no-brainer.
I’ve been involved in the “rag trade” for many years, previously owning two shops — one in Whangaparāoa in North Auckland and another in Tairua on the Coromandel Coast. Over the years I’ve built strong supplier contacts, allowing me to offer good quality clothing at affordable prices.
I’ve always had a love for clothes and I’m really happy to be back in the industry, helping people find the right outfit. I’m a people person and love meeting the many visitors who come through the shop.
Rangiriri is a great place to stop on your travels — whether for breakfast, lunch, or a bit of shopping. It has a wonderful atmosphere and friendly people… especially Erika, who owns Thrifted Secrets Co-op. She has a great laugh – but don’t tell her I said that.
I’d also like to thank Tina and Owen Michie for getting the room ready for me to set up, and my husband Steve and his mate for putting up the racks and building my stunning counter. The counter features a heavy slab of pōhutukawa as the top, which incidentally came down during Cyclone Bola in 1988.
Both Mojo Design Store and Just For You Clothing Boutique complement each other nicely, with access through both rooms.
You can find the boutique at:
12 Rangiriri Road, Rangiriri, Te Kauwhata

I look forward to seeing you there!
