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!

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.

The selection is amazing, the prices are great, and the pieces are beautiful and high-quality -- but what truly sets this location apart is the people. Ann, Janette, and Rocky completely changed the experience for me. They made me feel welcome, comfortable, and genuinely taken care of. Shopping there didn't feel like a chore -- they turned it into an experience, full of laughter and good energy. They truly made every visit feel like an adventure. Because of them, I kept coming back. I even visited another Gap location just to compare -- and it didn't even come close. This isn't just the best Gap I've been to. It's the best retail experience I've had, period. If you're anywhere near this location, go. You'll understand exactly what I mean.

There are boutiques in the area but if you forgot your suitcase and need to replace all your outfits for day to night you can do it here if you have to.

I do wish the emphasis was more directed at games and a game playing area would be a nice addition, but I really can't complain. You'll always find something your collection needs at Outlaw Moon.

They also have a nice selection of home goods for all rooms!!
