Right next to The Hartford Baking Company, I came across the CUTEST store. Vivid Hue Home is likely…read morethe most appropriately named little boutique. What caught my eye first was the beautiful assortment of colorful summer dresses. These dresses as well as the layout and the design of the store are very reminiscent of Lilly Pulitzer. In addition to the dresses, they have some home decor items, accessories, and some beautiful wine glasses. Everything is super colorful. There's also a section of men's items and items for baby. I'm so glad I discovered this super cute and super colorful boutique. I will be back.

The store has so many cool and interesting little things, like beaded keychains, hair accessories, candles, jewelry, greeting cards and decor. Some of it is vintage and some is locally hand made. The back of the store is the thrift clothing section. Everything looks to be in excellent shape. There's also records, shoes and purses. I saw a Dior coat, and some items by Burberry and by Alexander McQueen. They are selective about their selection of items they accept. There isn't any of that awful stuffy smell. It feels and looks like everything is brand new. It's easy to look and touch things without the fear of everything falling. This store isn't stuffed at all. I can't wait to return and see what else they have.

I'm a big game dude who's been to toy & game conventions and I truly appreciate both the selection of cool things here and also the warm cozy vibes you get as soon as you walk in. The thing I like most about Birdie's is that the toys here are things you're not gonna find at Target, Walmart, or Amazon. You're getting to see really cool gems that have been sourced and curated and hand-chosen from a variety of less-known, special out-of-the-box places. The store is cozy, it's personal, and every corner has something that feels like you're finding a little secret thing you would never have known about otherwise!!

There are so many beautiful and unique items in this store. They sell home decor items, dog items, toys and clothing for babies, women's clothing and jewelry, and seasonal items. There's a nice selection of West Hartford themed items, if you're visiting here, or if you'd like to get someone a gift from West Hartford, this is the place. I personally loved the variety of candles and each one is labeled with a specific West Hartford location. They way the store is decorated is so attention detailed and lovely. The employees are pleasant, always ready to answer questions and chat. They also offer gift wrapping on anything you purchase. I love stopping by this store. While the items are a bit more costly, they are supporting a wonderful cause, and they are not easy to come across in other places. I'd say treat your self or someone you know to a little gift from Good Cause Gifts, you'll be doing a good cause.

We were making our way through West Hartford when we stumbled across the River Bend Bookshop and just had to check it out. This shop is super cool looking because it's basically just inside of a small apartment. The shop itself has a cozy New England vibe and has a small to large section of pretty much every genre. Sadly, the horror section seems to be one of the smaller sections but hey, I don't live here, so clearly they know what their customers are looking for. Near the cash registers they have a nice selection of merch for the shop (sadly, no River Bend Bookshop Magnet) and a cool section dedicated to local authors and stuff like that. Overall, River Bend Bookshop is a super nice little book shop for the area and definitely a place worth checking out. Sadly, I didn't make a purchase on this trip because I can only fly back to LA with so much stuff, but I very much enjoyed checking this place out.
