I got there right as the owner was locking up for the Thanksgiving holiday. Without batting an eye, she opened the store again, made sure the music was playing, and insisted that I not rush. I immediately found a gorgeous scarf and a necklace for my friend, and I couldn't resist getting a great black sweater for myself. I thanked her profusely, and walked home to show off my purchases to my bf. Duly impressed, he reminded me that it was time for me to go back to work. Oh no. I couldn't find my keys anywhere. We tore up the house for a while, and found spare keys dating back to 2011. Just not MY keys. They have to be at the store. Finally, I had the presence of mind to look for a phone number (only after I'd already run back down the street to see if she was still there -- all locked up.). She answered, and said she hadn't noticed them. Upon hearing the panic in my voice, she offered to come back downtown and look. She had already driven away! It's her thanksgiving break! I felt terrible, but I needed those keys. Fear not, my keys and I were reunited. She was unbelievably gracious about my mistake, even apologizing for not having looked around before closing. A review for a boutique should emphasize the product. Ohmygoodness these clothes are perfect. And the jewelry. And the hats. Clearly, I HAD to make a special trip just to buy a present here. Also, though, let's all support the heck out of a just plain good person who happens to have a VERY fashionable boutique in the affordable clothes- hungry world of downtown Dallas.

I was never impressed with the quality of their clothing, but it was a good convenient place to stop by when I was in a bind for something cute and trendy to wear, and their accessory assortment is decent. My last visit was terrible disappointment. I was in a hurry to find a dress to wear that evening for dinner and drinks at the Ritz. I was in a hurry and quickly bought a dress with sequence. When I got home and truly inspected the dress, I noticed that it was missing some sequence pieces, and it just looked plain cheap and tacky. There is no way I was going to wear that to the ritz. What an embarrassment!! I refuse to wear the dress. It was a final sale, so they would not exchange it or work with me store credit. I left this unwearable dress and they kept my $50. Poor, very poor customer service for someone who wants to shop and support local business. It is a shame that they were unwilling to work with me in spite of their poor quality product. As a resident, I always suggest their place as a go to for clothing. I will no longer. They were not willing to work with a loyal customer, so I will take my business and recommendations elsewhere.

Tyler Kingstone Mercantile was such a unique and unforgettable find during my trip to Dallas!…read more I was hanging out in the Bishop Arts District with some friends and decided to explore some of their local shops. Tyler Kingstone Mercantile is located in the corner just across from Starbucks which is pretty easy to find. Their whole store vibe is a mix of Texas meets modern vibes. They have a wide variety of clothing for men, women and even some super cute stuff for kids. I like that a lot (if not all) of their products are US and Texas made which I thought was very unique. I think this shop is perfect for out of towners looking for a very Texan souvenier or anyone looking for a very unique gift. I feel like most boutiques carry the same stuff just in different colors, but I can assure you that everything in here feels unique and curated to perfection. Highly recommend checking it out!

The neighborhood was nicknamed "The Devil's Back Porch" back in the 1920s. I hope that was not a reference to his butt. 2. This was one of the busiest streetcar stops in all of Dallas in the 1930s, which is the reason the shops are close together. 3. The restaurant Paradiso is L shaped because it was built around century-old trees. 4. Bonnie (of Bonnie and Clyde) worked as a waitress in this area before her crime spree began. Rumor has it she needed money to afford the $8 slices of pie at Emporium Pies. Only three things sucked: 1) Parking is difficult on weekends. 2) Cops are everywhere, so don't jaywalk. 3) The people with clipboards asking you to donate to blue whale abortions or whatever are aggressive.

The manager, owner, is really awesome. My son did a modeling show for her last year and had a blast. He recently got a call to go to NY for a gig with the BOSS agency there and I told him he better go to Indigo and get fitted for a descent pair of jeans for the trip. We only had a budget of $150.00 which he failed to tell them, but the jeans he came home wearing were fantastic and worth the $100.00 he went over budget. Don't think you can go in here with $50 and walk out with an outfit-they are pretty pricey. What you are actually paying for is the personal attention from the very accommodating staff. If it weren't for the punch to the pocket book I could easily give them 5 stars! read more

Indigo is a great place to find something no one else will be wearing. They have a lot of clothes from smaller designers and a number of items from local Dallas designers, which I especially seek out because it supports our local artists and local economy.
