This is my first time to shop at any Lee & Birch store. The Texas Township store is bright and well organized. The clothing is well displayed and they have a well stocked store with sweaters, jeans, and tops & blouses I was looking for a dress, but didn't find one that fit my style. Besides clothing, they also carry Sorel boots, coats, hats, lingerie, and a great variety of jewelry and accessories. I did in fact find a really cute ring that I just love. The sales staff is very friendly. They checked on me but were not overbearing or pushy. I signed up for their rewards program and plan on attending their November 16 Dress Up event, which will feature Pink Lemonade, Lee & Birch and Tulips Little Pop Up Shop. I'm looking forward to shopping again at Lee & Birch. It's my type of store.

Cute cute cute! This place explodes with color -- I could tell from the one brief glance at their…read morewindow display from the intersection of Oakland and Parkview that I was going to be all about this place. I adore the store layout and just about every stitch of clothing inside -- although I did experience a bit of sticker shock when I glanced at price tags. My eye gravitated to a luxuriously soft light sweater-cape in a pale pink with bright pink polka dots that I was hoping might be on sale since it's a bit too warm for the current season. No such luck ... it was almost $300. Sigh ... I moved on. Found the cutest little fuchsia and orange sundress. D'oh ... nearly $300 again. I have a hard time parting with that much money for clothing that only gets a few months use since it's only hot in Michigan for a few months of the year. If I lived in Florida, it would absolutely be worth the splurge. There are quite a few more budget-friendly items at Tulips, including one new clothing line that's closer to the $50 mark, but this season's line from them wasn't in the vibrant colors that made the rest of Tulip's apparel appeal so much. They also have some wonderful travel-friendly, wrinkle free clothes that I'll be sure to check out next time I'm planning to go on vacation. Jewelry, too, is very affordable and bright and pizzazy ... I posted a bunch of pictures on yelp. This would be a great spot to stop for gifts as well as they had gorgeous beach blankets in vibrant patterns (flamingos, anchors, peacock feathers and other themes), Derby hats and other fun tchotchkes. Tulips is a now a must-stop spot for me when I'm in the Oakwood Plaza neck of the woods. What a great little area to shop local! I highly recommend wandering the whole area and popping in to all the great local spots.

Best damn men's store in western Michigan in every way…read more I found myself with a wardrobe emergency in Kalamazoo. With the family wedding to attend the next day, I discovered I brought the wrong suitcase across the state and wasn't really up for a 4 hour return trip. If I could only get black socks I could kinda fake it with khaki pants, a short sleeved light blue shirt, and black shoes. I figured I would go to a Walmart in the morning for black socks. My wife asked the pre-wedding barbecue table where to go for socks in K'zoo. Every local man said, nearly in unison: Libins. I figured I *had* to try it. I walked in and said at the very least I needed black socks, preferably over the calf. But if possible, also a jacket, dress shirt, tie and fancy suspenders. I didn't have high expectations. I'm the kind of guy who can't buy anything off the rack. My saleswoman said she was thinking a blue blazer to go with the khakis, which is just what I had in mind. The first one was a bit too tight. I told her I wouldn't mind a pattern. The next one fit perfectly, including the sleeve and jacket length, and I loved it even more than the jacket I left behind in Monroe. It took her a minute, but no longer, to find a matching shirt in my size. She pulled out four ties and I picked one. It wasn't one I would have bought on sight because I *had* to have it, but it was definitely one I would have bought on the road when I needed a tie because it was in the neighborhood of what I like. Suspenders that made the outfit pop took another 30 seconds. Black over the calf socks took a minute because she forgot the over the calf part at first. A couple of minutes to hear stories from the other customers about the current macaw and the crusty old predecessor, and a few minutes to ring me up. Out the door with a fantastic wedding wardrobe in about 10 minutes. When I told other guests at the wedding I got all of "this" in 10 minutes at Libins that morning, the locals all said of course I did. They reveled me with their stories of going to Libins with their father as a boy, or that they got the very suit they had on there, including the groom and his father. I can't say enough about the selection, the helpful staff, the huge bird greeter, and the strong sense of tradition that fills the place.
