Amarillo is full of many different businesses, some that cater to the everyday person, others that cater to the finer side of life and the fancy side of the everyday person.

Growing up most people watch movies and in some of those movies, you would see people wrap themselves in beautiful fur and gorgeous coats.  You would sit and watch and think someday I want a coat like that.

There is a place in Amarillo that will cater to those dreams and can help you get into a beautiful coat whether it be fur, leather, or another beautiful material.  A beautiful piece of clothing can change your life.

Marcella's Furs & Leather at 2611 Wolflin Village

Marcie Rea has made that dream happen for thousands of people in the Amarillo area for 23 years.

If you want luxury outerwear and accessories Marcella's Furs & Leather is where you go in Amarillo to get this luxury.

However, sometimes amazing chapters come to an end, and you have to turn the page and start another chapter and that is what Marcie Rea is doing.  This winter season will be the final season for Marcella's Furs and Leather.  Marcie is retiring.  The announcement was recently made on their social media.

After 23 years in the fur and outerwear business, I’ve decided to retire. Yes, that means we will be closing our doors very soon.

A Sad But Happy Goodbye

We are excited for Marcie as she embarks on her retirement and the next chapter of her life.

One of my favorite memories of working in the media business was getting to work with Marcie.  It was always a great pleasure when she would come into the studio to cut her commercials.  We would talk about her products, and our lives and even joke around. One of my favorite conversations that we had was when she explained to me why you had to properly store fur.  I was naive, I had no idea and it was fascinating.

If you have never had a chance to meet Marcie or experience any of her luxurious products, then it's time you get to Marcella's Furs and Leather before the season is over.
