"Ales & Any."…read more At the massive and gargantuan in pretty cool Mall - Mayfair in the northwest suburbs of Milwaukee - you will find this Alex and Ani store which we didn't love as much as a lot of other stories that we've been to from this same chain. It was a little busy and a little cramped on the day we came through here. But we only gave it 5 minutes of our time so I won't be too harsh. Extremely friendly, so bumped up to 4 from the 3 I was aiming for.

Stopped in here to get a gift for my niece. Two workers this morning were very nice and helpful…read more Wasn't entirely sure what I wanted to get, but they offered suggestions. Clearance in the back was priced extremely well. Perfect stop for gifts of higher quality jewelry compared to other big box stores. I wish there was more signage on how the bracelets work with the charms and I wish they were more transparent with prices - we had to keep asking for a price lookup.

Argosy is an Interesting home accessories store. Different than the typical mass market paintings,…read morebowls, vases, Argosy has some unique and handcrafted items that are not available in the big-box stores. There's a odd mix of things here, from handbags and key-chains and jewelry, to candles, tableware and specialty foods. Oddly enough, I really liked this store, even as I recognized I'd have no place suitable for displaying any of what it carried. My decorating style isn't quite so formal. I was really struck by how well coordinated things were, the flow of the store encouraged me to keep browsing and led me from one surprise to another. The little dogs made of beads were adorable and as close as I came to thinking "maybe." The manager was as nice as could be and tried valiantly to get me to buy something, even offering suggestions for the bottled artichoke relish. And as tempting as it all was - I didn't want to pack it. So, I left empty-handed. Still, I'd stop here again simply because I can enjoy looking at things more knowing I don't have to clean it, dust it, or figure out where to put it.

I recently took my son (19 months) for his first haircut, and had a nice experiences at Whimsikidz…read more The atmosphere is great for kids. Plenty colorful, lots of toys to play with before or after the haircut, tvs playing cartoons, and even fun themed capes they cover the kids with during their cut. Shelly was super sweet and did a great job on my son's hair. The whole session didn't last more than 10 minutes. My son did surprisingly well - largely distracted by Mickey Mouse on the tv - and it wasn't until the end until he shed a few tears. Shelly was so friendly and patient, keeping him as comfortable as possible. Prices are reasonable, service is sweet, and the outcome looked great. I'm sure we'll be back.

Tucked into the heart of Tosa, the location is on point. It's no wonder they're regularly busy and have such a welcoming and communal feel. The exterior boasts of beautiful murals, colorful and bright. As soon as I walked in, I was impressed with the atmosphere. All of the modern decor, lots of little things to shop for (by local vendors), a handful of tables to sit at and enjoy food/drink, and a friendly face at the register ready to check you in. I brought both my boys, 3.5 and 1.5 years old, and they had a blast. We booked a slot online ahead of time, which was very easy to do and came with a text & email reminder. When we showed up we paid for our entry ($11/kid for an hour) along with a latte for myself. I could not resist, given the drink options sounds darn good. And let me tell ya, the 'born to be wildberry shaken espresso' is something I need in my regular caffeine rotation!! As for the play area, I thought it was great! Plenty of space for kids of all ages. There were structures to climb, costumes to dress up in, blocks to stack, musical instruments to play, trucks & cars galore, and beyond. Oh and comfy couches for the moms/dads/caretakers to get comfy. All in all, a beautiful and safe place for littles to play! Also awesome: they host workshops, classes, storytimes, and other groups for parents and kids to get involved in. Unfortunately we live a tad out of reach for regular enough visits, but I'd imagine their membership is something worth looking into. I think what I appreciated most was was how community-centered Little Village feels. From the staff to the friendly moms & dad visiting, it was a vibe. Can't go wrong with a visit here!

I also (perhaps weirdly) asked if I needed to be a parent, which I am not, to get a coffee. The barista seemed amused/confused and said no. I ordered a very nice latte and got some work done.

Such a wonderful options for those with kids/nieces/nephews/godchildren. Everyone wins and has fun!
