I wouldn't say they are overpriced just more then i like to spend on things I don't need and only want. That saying-I find something I want here but don't need. They have some very unique gift ideas along with some books and toys that I would buy. They have a cool talking dinosaur that I loved with its dry humor. It would be a good way to train your child's wit. I would recommend stopping in and browsing even if your are not looking to buy because you may find something you want here.

They are inclusive and welcoming, and their selection is fantastic. The children's section is one of the best, in terms of inclusive books. My kiddo loved it when she was little and now enjoys the middle grades books. I love the selection of horror/mystery/true crime. One of my favorite things is to buy books that are staff picks. They have not let me down. Their staff highlights the best books. The pricing isn't lowest you'll find, but I'm ok with that because I'm supporting people and a message, and not a big chain. Also, they host a ton of book events. There's something for everyone!

This was a cute store - a lot of nice things to give as gifts and get for yourself as well. First…read morething we saw were the lotions up front, actually they were shea butter for the body. They had different ones with names like Whoopie Cream, Sweet Tea or Pink Moon to name a few. There are testers available so you can take a whiff - some of them smell really, really good. They also have bath soaps that are locally made and shea butter soaps as well (lavender, jasmine and clementine to name a few) - with smells like those, everyone might want to get one. I found myself looking at a lot of items in the store as I wished I could have bought everything. In the back they had sleepwear with cute sayings - they looked like mini-bags, but once opened it is sleepwear. There is even a section selling items for toddlers or babies (can't remember). Employees were very helpful. Definitely want to come back to this spot.

The majority of the store has nice high end, moderately boho chic clothing...but in the back right hand corner, is a baby corner where my mother in law and I spend nearly an hour cooing over every little thing. Yeah. We're ridiculous. OK, so we weren't going to buy (although my MIL did give me some pointed remarks about procreation), but we were there for so long and cooed so loudly that I was rather surprised that no sales staff came by to check up on us. I mean, really, we sounded like a pack of gestating elephants. We were REALLY loud. And touched everything (and personally, I thought everything was priced a little higher then expected...and by "a little higher" I'm being generous). Anyhoo...the store is cute, packed with stuff, but it's clear that the staff is deaf and blind. Eh.

For the price point we wanted the basket was overwhelmingly beautiful. I also screwed up the address and found out after they drove all the way to Annapolis to drop it off that she moved and I still had the old address (I suck at details sometimes - unlike Frederick Basket Company). They were kind enough to drop it off to me in Silver Spring instead so I could give it to her when I saw her again. So much for the surprise, but the whole thing was too perfect. I love supporting a local shop, the basket was better than advertised and the customer service is top-notch!

As the name might imply, there are a lot of nods to France that can be found in this store. There are home goods, paper goods and stationery, books, apparel, jewelry, and much, much more!

This is not to discount Dads liking the stuff artistic (so to speak) but I am recommending this store in this particular review as a primo source for can't fail gifts for the wife or daughter who doubt your ability to be fun or even spell "style" with a "y".
