I guess I didn't start liking purple until this year. Lol. Everything is 50% off. And right now they're just month-to-month. She's not sure when their last date is. Beautiful clothing and fun stuff.

I had read about it online (is everything really purple inside?!) and was happy to find it on our walk. So yes, if you're a fan of anything and everything purple, this is worth a stop whether you're looking for purple solids, a splash of purple woven in fabrics, or just generally want to look around. I ended up buying a Hawaiian dress, with purple flowers of course, and loved looking around the rest of the store's purses and stuffed animals, clothes and accessories, and Seal Beach souvenirs. Customer service is great and there's a changing room in the back. They take credit, but cash is preferred as it's a small business. I'll be back for purple and more!

You can tell how much love and talent the owner of this shop has by how layered, beautiful and meticulous everything is.

I was offered a water bottle and a ton of laughter. The prices were amazing with the big ticket items being priced just right for such incredible quality. She has rooms full of different styles of home furnishings and I bought a bag full of seasonal trinkets, candles, candelabras and kitchen stuff all for under $100.

Seal Beach, CA This…read morebusiness on Main Street includes a lovely outdoor nursery with some unique plants and ground cover you won't easily find at your big box garden center. Even though the nursery section is not that big, just entering the gate from the sidewalk is a joyful, magical discovery for me...I love viewing all of the beautiful greenery. There are some new plants on each visit I've made, I usually see at least one plant I've either never seen before or don't know the name of until I look at the sticker on the container. They even sell some vegetable garden herbs and small potted plants, albeit a rather small selection. Towards the back left of the outdoor space, there is a section for garden signs and decorations, and just beyond is an indoor store with random items like clothing, kitchen towels, olive wood bowls and spoons, jams and jellies and jewelry. Within the past few months we have taken several strolls up and down the sidewalk to visit the shops on Main, but this one is a must every time I am in the area. I always try to hit this store up first if I am in the area close to sunset as they close at 5 pm. Street parking is Free for two hours, just enough time to walk through some shops and down a few blocks to the Seal Beach Pier which is well maintained with great views of Long Beach in the distance.

It even has an outdoor area that could have been a backyard. When I first walked in, it felt like I was stepping back into the '70's. A lot of brown and orange hues. Once you pass the front counter on your left, you feel like you're stepping into someone's living room. There's a couch, coffee table, dial television set, and the record player is blasting '70's music from their collection of vinyl. The first room on the left sells clothes, plants, etc. The second small room next to it has a large picture of KISS plastered on the walls, between the selection of boots and jackets. If you keep walking towards the back, there's a room to your right where the record player is. After exiting that room, you walk into the main room and a large selection of vinyl for sale near the back. They sell used and new merchandise. Everything from used clothes to new jewelry, paintings, artwork, and everything in between. Like I said, there's a large outdoor patio where they sell patio furniture, pots, plants and other outdoor decoration. There is really a lot to take in, and everything is affordable. I saw something I liked that cost $9.50, but I asked myself where I was going to put it. The gal at the front counter was friendly. They take Apple Pay. Parking: Plenty of free street parking in the neighborhood.

Jewelry, yup. You want trinkets, they've have it. You want truly unique art items, they have them, as well. You want an incredible selection of vintage LPs, they offer it. They have a little bit of everything, and it is all truly curated and unique. Located on Orange Avenue, in the Eastern section of Long Beach California, this business is a little bit off of the beaten path. It's actually a truly unique neighborhood.

So, you can easily grab a meal, or a coffee, or a little bit of something else once you come to the area this business is located within. Once inside, you are overwhelmed with a plethora of all kinds of everything. It's truly a visual experience to walk into this business. They have a lot of great everything. I can't say that enough, because you truly never know what you are going to find when you go in. The staff here are all super nice, so if you have any questions, they're happy to help you out with whatever they can. In terms of pricing, they're very fair. Sure, you can maybe find cheaper prices at a thrift store. But, at a thrift shop you're never guaranteed that you're will find the best of the best like is available at this business. And, that's what this shop offers, the best of the best. In terms of parking, street parking is your best bet. On weekends, you may have to walk a little bit, because, as stated, there is a number of other businesses directly surrounding Goods on Orange. But, it's a good way to get your steps in. Overall, if you're looking for that unique gift, that special something for yourself, or that something you never knew you needed, this is a great place to find it.
