It is a vintage consignment shop that has relics from all eras, including jewelry, stickers, garments, textiles, hats, gloves, shoes, suitcases, purses, utensils, tea sets, dishes, furniture and artwork. Also, half of the store is dedicated to novels of all genres. There is even a special spot to the right (next to the windows) with a "most recent" bookcase filled with trending books. You can make a full day out of venturing here since there is also a brewery, distillery, and a super cute restaurant all on the same road. Parking is accessible, however, you will need to pay by phone app--even on weekends.

Wow, people denigrating this thrift store for being a little dingy. Fam! It's a thrift store. What…read moredid you expect? If you want Nordstrom, go to Nordstrom. Holy cow! What I can tell you is this -- I came here looking for decent suits and I found *many* of them. Racks and racks full of suits. I tried on around 10, I bought six of them. In that group of six, only *one* will need alterations. That's right -- five suits bought and ready to wear for right around $100. I've been to a bunch of thrift stores in the DMV. Really, look at my other reviews. Bottom line -- if you want real variety in men's suits, I haven't found any place better yet. Yes, maybe some thrifts have *nicer* suits on a per capita basis, but at this store, you'll have a lot of options and if you have a relatively common body-type like mine, you can come away with a full closet if you want it.

Flipping through clothing racks I was met with holes, shrunken sweaters, rips, stains, bad pilling. It was all stuff that might as well be recycled, not sold. They are selling the worst of the worst. The place smells musty. Nothing is sized, either. Though they did have a "plus size" section. I wouldn't recommend for hobby thrifters.

From the owner: Coco Libre is an earth-friendly and socially conscious boutique, launched in October 2013. The…read morephysical shop is located in the heart of the Hyattsville Arts District in Maryland, 2 miles from the DC city line. We are fans of vintage clothing, not only because the pieces are unique, but because it is environmentally responsible. Vintage is recycling! Every vintage piece you buy is being saved from a landfill. With an average of 11.8 million tons of clothing per year getting thrown away, you can rest easy knowing you won't be making a 68 pound contribution to that number like the average American does. Coco Libre also believes in fair trade. These items can be anything from tea and coffee to earrings and bracelets. Fair trade simply means that the producers of the goods, who mostly live in developing countries, are justly compensated for their products. They are able to make a living wage from their work.

I followed my map here and was slightly opposed to going in, but I'm so glad I did. This place lacks curb appeal, but the items inside are great finds and remained organized. Prices are moderate.. but if you're going in looking for something specific, I'm sure you'll find it. I was in love with the $.99-1.99 book selection. I spent a good 30 minutes looking through them all. I also was pleasantly surprised to see they had a large selection of sweaters and jackets. I got 2 books and 3 sweaters for $32 which wasn't too bad, but I've done better price-wise in other states. The purse selection wasn't the greatest, but the home selection was interesting. I spent about 2 hours in here and couldn't believe how much stuff I came across with tags still attached. Everything was in good condition. The only thing I didn't find was high waisted mom jeans. Overall, this place beats any DMV thrift store I've been to in the last 4 years. Also, I was pleasantly surprised that my clothes didn't have a strong "thrift store smell." I'll definitely be returning for 50% off day or to grab more books!

Ursula and Ashley were amazing--helpful, patient, and genuine hype girls (over the course of 2+ hours of indecision). They took turns bringing things based on what I picked out, my updated size, and whatever else caught their expert eye, and helped me get in and out of the corsets as needed.

Thank you Seleh for doing such an incredible job altering my wedding dress! Seleh completed a…read morecomplicated alteration that involved removing mesh covering most of the top half of the dress. Before undertaking the work, Seleh ran through some of the considerations, including the fact that the mesh provided structural support that he would need to compensate for around the straps. He finished the dress on time and the removed mesh looked flawless. He completed a second round of alterations after my first fitting. Then, a week or two after I took the dress home (and nine days before my wedding), I panicked about the fit of the bodice and the straps and left a slightly frantic voicemail for Seleh. To his immense credit, he called me back in ten minutes to calmly and gently ask me what was wrong and how he could fix it. He didn't make me feel crazy or unreasonable and made a quick appointment for me a couple of days later. He turned around this last round of alterations in a couple days -- a complex addition of fabric under the dress straps to reduce itchiness and some alterations to the bodice -- and the dress was perfect after that. His work on the straps was particularly impressive because the added fabric was completely invisible despite the fact that the straps were irregularly shaped, ornate, and lace. All in all, Seleh gets top marks for skill, timeliness, and emotional sensitivity (all a must when altering wedding dresses). Thank you again, Seleh!
