Blue Velvet is part of my North Loop Jaunt (every few months I head over to the neighborhood and…read morehit up my favorite places). It's also been sitting in my draft reviews for quite awhile (for those of you tracking). Started coming here a couple of years ago, around 2023 and just love it. It's a smaller store but they have lots of well-curated pieces and a really good selection of formal wear, dresses, skirts, jewelry, etc. I was prompted to take care of this draft review and a few others today because of a dress in the window here. A friend was recently in town visiting and asked that I go back and get a picture of the dress in the window. She is thinking about purchasing it (or having me purchase it and send it to her lol). Anyway, here's something to know: items displayed in the window have waitlists for folks intersting in purchasing. Anytime I have been in the shop, including today, service is friendly and helpful. The store is clean and the vintage pieces they carry are in pristine condition. You know what I like to say at this point-shop local, support small businesses!

Blue Velvet vintage is a cool, quirky and eclectic vintage store! The store good variety of both…read moremen's and women's vintage clothing, spanning multiple decades (notably mid‑20th century through late 20th century). Interestingly, the store combines vintage items with some modern items. For example, socks, some jewelry and sunglasses are non-vintage. While the store is small, it is easy to browse. In addition, clothing and shoe items are spaced apart where you can easily view them and ferret through the racks. The value of items are reasonably priced and some items as low as $5. I did not find anything I could not live without, however, I will definitely pop in from time to time. Also, there is a fair amount of free parking. The store manager was super helpful and personable.

I enjoy picking there brain on items they have, or where they got things. They are so sweet. If you love vintage goods, this is the place :)

I know that's not necessarily their fault, since the clothes are true vintage, but it's disappointing nonetheless. I would suggest more assortment of accessories and knickknacks to make up for the lack of size range in clothes.

I wandered in one day and was charmed by the selection of clothes as well as the person behind the counter, who was chatty and nice.

Treasure City Thrift recently moved into my neighborhood, so I finally stopped in to see what it…read morewas all about. On my first visit, I noticed they had a nice mix of clothing, shoes, glassware, and home décor, so I came back this weekend hoping to browse the clothing racks. I struck out on clothes this time around--not because they didn't have any, just because nothing in my size was quite my style, condition, or price point. That's thrifting, though. You never know what you're going to find, and sometimes the best score is in a completely different aisle. In my case, I walked out with a pair of vintage shoes in excellent condition for only $5, plus several beautiful glass pieces for next to nothing. I'd call that a successful trip! When I drove by on Sunday, they had boxes and boxes of free items out front with people happily digging through them. It was way too hot for me to join the hunt, but once the Texas weather cools off, I definitely will. This feels like one of those thrift stores that's worth stopping into regularly because the inventory is always changing, and you never know what treasure you'll find next.

Furniture is wonderfully refurbished in-house by people who are passionate about wood, because every piece shines. You will pay top dollar for the right to own just about anything from the store. Price as marked is as is - no negotiating. Best time to go if you want a deal is during a 'sidewalk sale'. Be ready to make a quick decision on items you're interested in though because people line up to buy your item if you decline it. No time to change your mind! Four stars instead of five due to high price points and lack of sales offered.
