about

Lea Barksdale, owner of “frankie + millie”, has always had a passion for fashion. She keeps current with styles and trends by watching fashion blogs, studying retail trends, and tracking the progress of rising designers. As mother to three girls who love to shop for unique styles, she saw room for growth in the local clothing market. She plans to showcase several exclusive designer lines, from chic contemporary designs to enduring classic lines with a hint of an edge.

With the girls grown, Lea admits to missing their company and her shopping trio. But “Frankie + Millie” as well as the newest addition to the family, Frankie, are occupying her time. The English bulldog helped name the business...and Millie? That’s Frankie’s future bride-to-be!
