FatFace is a British casual, street wear clothing store, for men, women and children. I've seen…read morethis store across several cities across Europe. Locally I've been to the FatFace stores in New Haven, Newport and in Mystic. While in the Mystic store recently, they treated shoppers to iced tea and cookies. I like the selection of items they offer. There's a nice variety of tops, jeans, skirts, dresses, leather wallets and purses, and more. However, the prices are very high, even for the most basic items. The items are good quality, but very similar items can be found at plenty of other retailers at a much more appropriate cost. I can't see myself purchasing anything here. While the store is in a vary attractive area, and it's always beautifully set up, staff is also very friendly and attentive, the items aren't anything unique, and similar items can be found in many other places. I simply can't recommend shopping here.

A treasure hunt with charm and value…read more Penny Wise Consignment is one of those places where you walk in "just to browse" and somehow leave with a bag full of finds you didn't know you needed. The shop is well‑organized without losing that fun, treasure‑hunt energy that makes consignment shopping so addictive. Clothing, accessories, home goods--everything feels curated enough to be worth your time, but still priced like a true local gem. What really sets Penny Wise apart is the staff. They're friendly, patient, and genuinely invested in helping you find something that fits your style or your home. There's a sense of loyalty and community here--you can tell regulars come back not just for the deals, but for the people. Inventory rotates often, which keeps things fresh, though it also means you've got to be quick if you spot something great. A little more space or updated displays would push this place into five‑star territory, but honestly, the charm is part of the appeal. If you love good value, unique pieces, and a shop that feels like it's run with heart, Penny Wise is absolutely worth the stop. Enjoy

Arisu Anime is a fun store at Olde Mystic Village in Mystic, CT. The Totoro figurine outside…read moreimmediately caught my attention and when I walked in, there were life sized figurines of Naruto, Monkey D. Luffy, and Goku. There is a collection of anime, manga, origami kits, cloths, blind boxes, houseware, kitchenware, art and posters, figures, DIY kits, Funko pops, gatcha machines, and a plethora of other Japanese treasures. On the right of the store next to the outside deck with tables, there is a Japanese food market with authentic imported pre-packed Japanese foods like instant ramen, different kinds of Japanese noodles, Japanese grocery items, snacks and chips, sweets and candy and ice cream, Japanese drinks and anime theme drinks. By the registers, there are free arcade games to play. I took my time walking through the store and looking at everything. It could be overwhelming at first. I really liked looking at the Sanrio, The Studio Ghibli Collection, and Pokemon items. I learned after that Arisu means "Alice" in Japanese and it's a tribute to their first store "Alice in the Village" which is also located in Olde Mystic Village. If you're in Olde Mystic Village, definitely stop by and take a look at Arisu Anime and Alice in the Village.

If you're into anime, you've gotta check this place out. It's packed with figures, plushies, manga,…read moresnacks from Japan, and all kinds of cool collectibles. Last time I went, I grabbed some imported ramen and a cute pair of chopsticks. I'm planning to bring my kids next time since they're obsessed with anime and ramen. I thought it was cool that they have a little spot where you can make your ramen right there, and some people were even eating outside on the patio, it just adds to the whole vibe. I did notice that some stuff, like the Hello Kitty ramen I usually get at Target, was more expensive here, but honestly, the variety, the atmosphere, and how nice the staff is make it worth stopping by. We'll definitely be back, and I'll probably end up buying even more stuff next time.

Stumbled upon this awesome shop on their grand opening. We were greeted by a Southern Tide rep, who…read morewas friendly and offered us free koozies, croakies, and stickers. We went inside and the merchandise was predominantly, Vineyard Vines, Southern Tide, and similar brands. The staff was informative and friendly, and even offered us mimosas! There's a collection of men's and women's clothes, shoes, and accessories, fairly priced (similar to MSRP). I bought a pair of Sperry Boats, which I wore out of the store after they gracefully threw away my old, beat up ones. My fiancé purchased a Vineyard Vines Shep Shirt and a rain shawl (which she's very happy about). This shop will do very well and I'm happy to have given them business. We will definitely go back again!

If you go to Newport, you would get one that says Newport on the front. These are super trendy, particularly during the spring and summer. Just Mystic is a store in downtown Mystic where you can find a variety of these hoodies, t-shirts and hats for the whole family. This cotton is heavy duty, but still light and breezy, it is made to be worn, so it only gets comfier with each wear. Just Mystic merchandise isn't cheap, one of their basic sweatshirts without the hood will run you $65 - $75. These make an excellent gift for someone who you've visited Mystic with but isn't from the area.

I will tell you that I did not leave empty handed. Winter hat Long sleeve tees trendy sunglasses all in which will make one heck of a Christmas gift. (pics to follow) They offer a ton of local apparel great for the tourist of course but equally as attractive to us locals. I was eyeballing some other comfortable attire for myself that I plan to return to snag after the holidays. Plenty of printed champion sweatshirts and long sleeve men's tees that peaked my interests. Cheers to 2023 and some new clothes for me

I hear what some folks have said about staff having conversations and not paying attention to…read morecustomers. I've experienced that in the past. But this seems to be changing. I had a GREAT experience today. Staff asked if they could help, and they located a pair of earrings I was looking for that I didn't see displayed. I told them they were for an upcoming photo shoot and, when I accidentally left them on the store counter, one of the staff jumped in her car to find me. She didn't, but she did offer to meet me half way so I didn't have to drive an hour to get them! Or she offered to mail them to me at their expense. Who does that anymore?! They have beautiful things that are reasonably priced. I always make a point to stop by when I'm in the area!
