I'm not sure I would have stopped if my partner hadn't pointed out the little doorway with the red painted wall inside. Walking through the plastic air curtain opened up to a shop that held so many fun patterns and a wide variety of colors! I hesitate to use the term "boutique" because Red Lantern seems more casual than that implies. There's no pretension, but plenty of whimsy. Service is equally relaxed but helpful. You won't feel pressured. Pricing isn't cheap, but it isn't outrageous either. The shirts I bought were reasonable, especially since I can't find the patterns anywhere else. My partner also found an amazing dress that I'm certain she'll enjoy for years to come. Red Lantern really seems like a hidden gem on Royal!

Where style lives and breaths…read more Road Kill is a clothing boutique for men and women specializing in cool, original clothing with heavy leaning into punk, rock, and pop aesthetics. Everything from tops, bottoms, costumes, shoes, jewelry, and other accessories will be found here. Far from fast fashion, these are quality threads that will not only last you, but will keep catching eyes for years to come. The people working here are friendly and patient. They'll help you find the clothes you want in the sizes they have. Prices are high at Road Kill, but that's to be expected with the level of quality you're going to be getting out of your clothes. In our last visit, my wife found a beautiful and colorful set of boots, made with genuine leather. They were cool, comfy, and around $150. Which might be high for some, but honestly, we thought it was an excellent deal. Whether you need to dress up for a special night, or need to expand your already magnificent wardrobe, Road Kill has got you covered.

Some reviews suggest the prices are high-I did not find that to be the case. The variety was crazy, the quality of products solid and the staff were super kind and helpful. I am a bit annoyed (but I understand) the all sales final policy. I had bought a mask for my son and it didn't end up fitting him. So we bought another. Oh well. But this is the perfect store for prepare shopping.

From home decor to soaps to kitchen wares to paintings to decor items to completely useless, kitschy items that you have no idea what to do with. Most items are handmade and original. This is not a China mass produced chain. If you're looking to take home a genuine piece of New Orleans, this is a boutique for you. Prices are on the expensive side, which is to be expected when dealing with such objects. The staff are so pleasant and welcoming. We chatted about their experiences running the shop and the various artists that showcase their work for purchase at the store. Discovered that there is a NYC "chapter" of this fun boutique! Was happy to discover such serendipitous news--will be sure to visit!

So many weird and amazing things in here! We will go to Leroy's whenever we visit New Orleans.read more

The store is pretty torn up so be prepared to dig. But I did find a red skirt for my carnival costume so it's all good. The parking lot can be a bit of a disaster if there is an event at the Shamrock which is in the same strip mall. On the other hand, I got to see a bunch of really random costumes this afternoon and for once the dudes were dressed more skimpily than the girls.

They had a great report with their regulars--even with the FedEx delivery guy! When I was at the check out counter for my first transaction, the manager noticed that I had my eye on the fragrances. In a totally non-pushy way, she asked if I saw the sale. I was psyched about catching a deal. And when I misread the pricing, the manager explained the details in a kind tone. The racks were tidy and it was easy to find my size. I returned the next day to exchange a sundress for some shorts I had my eye on the previous day. The clerks were professional and helpful, and our transaction went well. You have to love Rainbow because they have all kinds of inexpensive outfits. But the people employed at this location will keep me coming back far into the future!

This shop is perfectly perfect in every way and it makes me want to throw a big shindig, just so I will have a excuse to spend all of my money here. There are so many charming things: sparkly dresses, pastel dresses, beautiful costume jewelry, furs, hats, feather wigs and a tiara, just to name a few. Setting foot here was like visiting your great aunt's house, provided she has lots of style. I couldn't quite tell if this shop was a consignment shop or not because all of the items are "one of a kind", in the sense that there is only one of each thing offered. For example, I found a beautiful dress that would be perfect for New Years Eve, but it wasn't in my size. Despite that, I love the feeling that you are in a fabulous closet packed with vintage inspired treats. I didn't buy anything to do, but I do intend to pick up some sparkly hair accessories as the end of the year approaches.

The delicate, beautiful fascinators with ostrich feathers are something to behold! These will make you stand out in a crowd of parade and Mardi Gras ball revelers! I believe the woman who owns the shop makes these on the premises as there's a huge sewing studio in the back of the store. IE, these are not coming off a shipment from China. There's so much to tempt the eye and wallet here. Prices are more than fair. I'll be back soon for a coat that I can't get out of my mind. It has to happen.

I had purchased various of their wares at pop-ups or other shops over the last few years. But I learned from a friend that they had an actual shop (and while it is not open at the moment), they are selling from their website. Ordering was super easy and they have a nice variety of items. I like that you can shop by cause as well as by type. You can't actually smell the candles from the website, but the descriptions are really good! I also like that if you finish a candle, you can return the empty clean glass to the store for a small credit.
