I thought the prices were very reasonable. I didn't see any tagging system (no colors of the day, etc) but lots of great brands. Toys, books and bottles/cups too! We were just visiting the beach for the 4th. Would return if in the area.

One side is second hand items priced right while the other side is new toys and books and a few racks of new kid stuff. I like that they had several tag colors that helped bring the prices down a bit but the clothes are quality so I didn't mind paying more. So many cute shocked outfits with embroidery. If you have kiddos this is a great place to get quality stuff. Here on vacay so I can't speak to the rotation but would love to return in the future.

I've been here three times. The first two visits were perfect. I absolutely loved the experience…read moreand the service. It was normally my daughter and I shopping together. Today I brought in my son, he's Autistic and an eloper. Meaning he tends to run away. The older woman at the register was very annoyed by this, and she did not have the same welcoming attitude that she had with other customers. It felt unwelcoming. It's hard enough as a mother with a child of a disability. It's even hard when other people are watching us struggle and choose to not be kind. I won't be coming back if this is the kind of person that will be working the register. I'm sorry...

We have been to this location twice now since it's re-opening. The couple that owns the store is…read morevery nice and seem to have a clear idea of how they want to run their business. I don't want to harp on how the previous location was run, but I feel it is fair and necessary to say that it is much better since it's re-opening. Prices, organization, and inventory have all improved! Very excited that they're here! When I was walked in today, I was greeted by one of the owners in a very friendly fashion. He was sitting behind the front counter talking pleasantly with a customer and greeted us with a smile and a hello! Both times we have been here, it has been very organized and easy to browse. They put batteries in the things that require them so you can see that they work. If they miss something and it doesn't have batteries, they offered to put batteries in it so that you can see that it functions properly before purchasing. It's clear that they care very much about their inventory and the way it is organized. The clothing and toys are all clean and easy to see. During our first visit I bought a couple of clothing items and a baby swing. We were so excited to find this item at a reasonable price, in good operation and clean. The "lost star" - and my only qualm - is that during my second visit to this location, after we had been browsing for a bit, the conversation at the front register turn to politics (it's a pretty small store so any conversation reaches the whole store). I stayed and waited for it to end, but it drug out and they kept discussing... The cashier/owner did nothing to redirect the conversation and continued to engage in discussion about politics. To be honest, I don't necessarily disagree with the things that they were saying... I am just so tired of listening to politics everywhere I go. Before leaving, I did say something to the owner and (I thought, politely) let him know that I was uncomfortable trying to browse while they were discussing religion and politics. I even told him I didn't disagree with his point of view in the discussion, it just made it really hard to enjoy my shopping experience. Politics are everywhere... I don't really want to listen to them when I am shopping for clothes and toys for my baby. I will come back again. I like this store and the ownership... I just hope to have a better experience next time.

I'd give zero reviews if I could. In an attempt to shop local, my husband and I purchased an amber…read moreteething necklace here. Within 2 hours a bead had broken off, and the baby did not bite it. I brought it back with the intent to return it and buy one online from a company I used previously that had lasted for 4 years. I exchanged instead, against my better judgement. I put this new necklace on my baby a few hours later and realized it could be pulled up over her head, it was too long. This is dangerous for a teething necklace and they should fit a bit more snugly. I brought it back the next morning and was told no refunds at all and it was shocking I was even allowed to exchange the day before. I said I was quite frustrated that both experiences at this local shop have now been negative and the blonde employee there(different from the red headed one the previous day) told me that she didn't understand why I was frustrated with her since she can't change policy. While this is correct, she is the face of the company during my interaction, so unfortunately she is the one receiving my dissatisfaction. She offered a one time in store credit, which I declined. I walked to the door and informed her that I had no desire to bring any of my business to this store again and it's been a huge waste of my time. She said under her breath as I walked out the door, "YOU NEED SERIOUS HELP." I'm sorry, but that is absolutely uncalled for. I am allowed to politely but adamantly express my dissatisfaction with a company policy without the employee telling me to get help!! I had not used foul language up until this point, but I said a few unkind words at that point and stormed out. Utterly disappointed that our opinion of this area(recent move to this new area) has been sullied by unkind and unprofessional businesses like this one.

We walked the store but couldn't find it, when asked again if we needed help my friend explained what she was looking for; they sadly let us know they no longer had it in stock. I will say, the shop is a higher price range but if I had the extra I would totally buy from here. Good job to the employees though, feeling welcomed was a good change for us after checking out several other boutiques. I know she'll be buying from their online shop for sure.

Located in the Vibe District just off Atlantic on corner of Virginia Beach Blvd. it was a former abandoned building turned retail block with a Virginia ABC liquor store. Free parking is in the rear. They have a back door that's handy. The shop is small, but has a good amount of inventory. It's an upscale boutique with prices that match. However they have quality and both trendy and traditional type of styles that are vibrant. My daughter found many items she loved and did have a return of an item that did not work. Their return policy is 7 days for a full refund back to card. After and 7 days up to 30 days store credit. There was a hassle free return back to the credit card. As it turned out the young Asian woman was the owner. The owner invited my daughter back as they will receive new inventory on Friday. Great local business that needs support as they just start up.

I loved everything inside, and wanted to buy one of everything! If you're looking for a gift for almost anyone, this is a good spot to check out.

Shop local like you mean it and you won't be disappointed at Texture!…read more After many years, Texture has relocated out of the quaint house on Baldwin Avenue to serve its customers in a more convenient location just a few blacks down on Colley Avenue. The new location is nestled next to Running, Etc and across the street from Blair Middle School. It boasts ample street parking with a convenient side parking lot for customers as well. A beautiful store-front window is always displayed to perfection bringing window shopping to life during your stroll down Colley Avenue. A charming sidewalk chalkboard sign greets you before you even enter the store. The handiwork on the sign is done by a local artist which speaks to the nature of Texture. As you enter the shop, you will find it proudly supports local artists of Coastal Virginia from Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Williamsburg, and more. I'm always impressed by the jewelry, hand designed greeting cards, pottery, and accessories that the owner finds for the store. She or any other "Texurette" will happily tell you about the origins of any item. The ladies who work in the shop (Texurettes, as they are fondly called) are always friendly and helpful if you are looking for something particular. They offer complimentary gift wrapping in adorable gift bags tied with ribbon. Every time I give a gift in a Texture bag the recipients eyes light up! You will find a price range for every wallet. I have bought $2 hand soaps, hilarious dishes towels for $10 as well as beautiful jewelry in the higher price range. Texture is one of those local shops who truly supports local as well. I love both that they give back to the community and support local artists. It is definitely the ideal place to find a gift for any occasion. They have a baby boutique with one of a kind baby gifts, vintage inspired puzzles, funny gifts such as socks and dish towels, coastal decor, jewelry, handbags, pottery, candles and more. I'm not sure how the owner did it, but the move to their new location only brought more of that local charm with them to Colley Avenue. They are still serving up friendly southern greetings to every customer while making their new shiny store feel ever so welcoming. Kudos!

Both stores have since closed except for the Suffolk location. So even when it's a further trek for me to visit, it's still a treat to just walk around and see the unique items they carry. Service is wonderful, everyone greets you and asks if they can be of assistance. A must visit boutique!

I haven't been to the new location, but the photos on other social media looks amazing. I'm hoping to get there soon but every time I've walked in the owner is so nice and so polite and so helpful . She's a fantastic person all around. She likes to take what can be a sour moment in life and find a positive in it or continue to laugh through the hard times. It shows through the products that she sells a sense of humor is something we all need. Everything is priced fair you can even find sale items. Her clothes are so cute that I've gotten a couple things for my daughter. There's a wide variety of pricing so I'm sure there's a gift for everybody. You shouldn't walk out empty-handed. If you're looking for some quirky gifts or something to add to your collection, this is definitely a store you need to hit up.

Ever Jane Boutique (EJB) is one of my favorite stores in Coastal Virginia! Tucked away in the…read moreEdinburgh area in Chesapeake, it's located right next to the Barrel Room in the complex of businesses across the street from Target. EJB is an all around feel good shop. When I need a mood booster or when I am looking for a gift, I go there. It's kinda like that shop in the malls that was called Spencer's except this is his witty, sophisticated older sister who has the same family sense of humor, but classy. The owner and her staff are just the sweetest people and they genuinely love to see you come in whether you are coming in to take a look around or on a mission to get some retail therapy! This shop is PACKED with so many goodies that it's hard to see it all in one visit. They change the layout of the store quite often. Every time you go, I notice something new and I love that things are sold in limited quantities except for a few items and brands. Keeps things fresh. The owner likes to do her own retail therapy by shopping for the store and sometimes, she'll only buy a limited quantity and once that item is gone, it's gone! This isn't an exhaustive list, but these are some of the things you can find: - the round table in front will have some themed display depending on the time of year (Black History Month, Women's History Month, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Pride, Halloween, Christmas etc etc.) - women's clothing and fun(ny) t-shirts - jewelry (lot of it made by local artists) - mugs and wine glasses with funny quotes - kids section with adorable books about important historical figures - greeting cards (not your ordinary cards) - self affirmation journals and notebooks - coasters with the funniest sayings on them - oven mitts and kitchen towels - lots of fun gift bags and tissue paper and so much more! Take a look at the pics, because that will give you a better idea. Every time I am in need of a gift, EJB is my first stop! There is literally something for everyone, (unless they have no sense of humor). I did go in there once in search of a gift for my kid's teacher and then I held back. I didn't know her THAT well and my kid was STILL in her class. Maybe end of year gift? LOL Anyway, you should definitely stop by but if you can't, take a look online because they also ship! They have several shop events throughout the year and they also collaborate with other local businesses to provide a collective discount or prize and makes supporting local fun! Also, don't forget to look in the bag for a little envelope. You won't want to throw that out! Pro-tip: They just recently started offering a rewards program, so be sure to sign up for those! Stay safe, Friends!
